Hi Mick ...

For what I'm doing now I see no reason to get into something like
Dreamweaver.  For a few lists and tables, and for posting photographs,
what more is needed?  What do you mean by "design centric" anyway? 
Plus, I enjoy hand coding, and learning a little in that way.

No, I don't see simple CSS as a problem for many people, especially the
simple stuff that I'm using now.  If a browser won't support some of
what I'm doing, it should still display the text and images without the
decorations and "fancy" things.  I want my sister, with her hand-cranked
computer and kerosene powered screen to be able to visit my site and
navigate through it quickly and easily.  Do these "design centric" sites
take more time to load?  Use more resources?  Work on old computers with
older operating systems and browsers?
