Subject: Help picking out Web-Design Software
I need to build a website and am looking for a low cost (i.e as close to free as possible) website builder.  Would prefer a WYSIYWYG program as I don't have time to learn all the code.  I'll be building this on a Mac so would need mac compatible software.  Anyone have any suggestions?

I've used Eclipse for Django/Python on windows it worked pretty well, it has a MAC OS X download option. There are a ton of plugins available, not to sure what language you're looking to use but there is probably something available.

I used Website Tonight on godaddy.com and found it very easy. I think my website looks pretty good and it's very easy to embed video and make copy updates. The only problem is that I have to continue paying godaddy around $120/year I think to maintain the site.

Joomla worked great for me. Free, most of the plug ins are free and it is very easy to use. I had no experience at all and created a decent website on my own.

Decent for an amateur.

I'm using Aptana studio : http://www.aptana.org/

But it's not WYSIWYG.
