First off if you dont have any prior experience with building websites its gonna be hard to do all that you want. It takes a lot of time to learn how to make a good website not to mention learn all the intricacies of dreamweaver. I myself dont have much experience so Im telling you what I have gone through. I would suggest that since this is not a hobby site but rather one for your business that you might want to look into getting your site built for you. It would be exactly what you want and the costs of having a professional site done for you have really gone down.

Wish you the best of luck!

Dreamweaver has a gallery feature that provides clickable thumbnails.

I’m sure there are some good Flash galleries too, and if you find the right one, you most likely won’t need the Flash authoring software, as long as you didn’t want to modify the basic framework.

It sounds like you're looking more looking for a photo editing app if you want to crop pictures, etc. Try GIMP (GNU (GNU's Not Linux) Image Manipulation Program). It's a free, open-source and gratis app that does it all.

Comment on need simple help for web page can anyone talk to me? by Luce

Firstly how are you planning to make it…

Using raw html in something like notepad or with a program like dreamweaver or front page express?

Personally I’d open up notepad search for a html tutorial. (If you want a recomendation I’d use http://www.w3schools.com . They let you edit their examples online and you see how it would change your page.) And just learn how to create them like that first. If you want to get good you’ll need to learn html somewhere along the line however you intend to make it so why not start. Also I find it more satisfying doing it this way.

Don’t bother with templates if you just want a coloured background you can write on then there’s no need. Just ask if you want me to tell you the code for doing that.

The folder contain the files that make up the web template. You will need to open the index.html file in a WYSIWYG editor like Dreamweaver or Frontpage to make changes to it.

If you want it to be really simple, like having nothing but white text on a black background, you can just fire up a text editor like Notepad and type this:

INSERT YOUR TEXT HERE.

Since you already downloaded the template, your best bet is to go in Frontpage, Dreamweaver, or any of the free WYSIWYG web site editors floating around, and change it.

Contact me through derekconjar.com if you need more help, or want me to do it for you.

Edit: The post above me advised you to use a style sheet with the HTML. It’s always a good thing, but you don’t have to if your site is as simple as you make it sound. If you already have a web template, you might as well not even worry about that and just edit the template.

Yikes…whole site as flash? That is an accessibility nightmare..

Granted, you probably don’t have to worry about blind people coming to a photography site, but you definately don’t want to exclude the people who disable flash (IE disables it by default).

As a professional designer, I spend a lot of my time talking about the cons of using flash in a webpage…

Anyway…

Templates are your friend. There are some scripts out there for photo galleries that will help, but to be honest, a photography site should also have a content management system involved, if you plan to update it more than weekly.

Depending on where your site is hosted, you might have some content management systems pre-loaded in your control panel.

If you have no experience designing a site though, you might very well be in over your head. If you have a lot of time to get it up and running, buy a dreamweaver book or two (lynda.com’s Hand’s On Training by Chow is a great starter book, and it will introduce you to CSS, a crucial aspect of contemporary web design).

If you want it up asap though…you should consider hiring a pro. Getting a CMS is one thing, customizing it is an entirely different ballpark. If you are doing this for professional purposes, finding a professional is what you want to do. Your Dreamweaver purchase will not be for nothing though…as you can at least be your own webmaster.

Try freelance finder sites like guru.com, elance.com and rentacoder.com to get bids on a job.
