Colin, Check out Evert's link to ZipperSoftware also. He has a collection of 40+ Legacy Family Tree add-on tools available, including the Web Page Creator. I use TNG for my personal website, but have not upgraded to the latest version yet.
Just providing alternatives that I have found useful from people responding to your question. Great post to the UserGroup for asking for help.
