You said this was for a church so I dont think you want to go all out on this design. I fully understand that it will be available to the entire world, but you have to understand your audience - which in your case will be local. When I built my site, my latest design uses CSS styles. Steve has just barely understood the power of CSS, which is why he dropped PHP on the new AlterBridge website. This is my website's design,
MULLETMAN.NET, all done with CSS and HTML. Actually the true heart and beauty of it relies on CSS, the actual HTML is nothing more than what you can learn in your basic high school class. I dont have the CSS style sheet available for download because I dont. No one ever asked and I just never saw a reason to distribute it. But if you are very interested in CSS, which you should, check out this site -
CSS Zen Garden. The actual content of those websites does not change. What does change is the graphic design and that is what can make and break a website. Also remember, sometimes simple is better, specially got the com'fuser' impared. You dont what to create this work of art that NO ONE will be able to navigate.
