Bitey, not sure how far in you are in creating the site, BUT I have a designer friendly web site builder that kicks *edited*. It’s called Freeway Pro. You can create pretty much anything you want, incorporate any third party blogs or forums and i think there is a way to incorporate cms. It reminds me of dreamweaver only a lot easier to use, does all the coding for you, and is like 100-200 dollars cheaper. You can also design in a basic html table layout or css layout, which is neat.
Above is the maker, some british dudes. What’s also neat is they created their site with their product. It’s mac only i believe, but i figured you might like it cause you own one. You should check out the free trial if you get tired of coding. They also have a ton of tutorials to help with snippets and addons and such.
Here are a couple of sites i created using it, note: these are my first two real attempts at creating a website, so they are kinda weak, but are still functional. Anyway check them out, I’m still learning the program but i think the potential is there.
