Bite the bullet my friend, and get some books, and plenty of knowledge, or hire someone to fo ir professionally for you.
BTW, if it takes a long time for you to source good images etc., what makes you thing it won't take someone else a long time also?
Good luck

Wise words.
If you want to look like a backyarder, do it yourself.
If you want to look professional, hire a professional.
Space Fractal:
Mightbeen you should simply hold to the content alone first and get that to work. There is a bit to much backgrounds, scrollers and such.
You could use the greate www.colormatch.dk and www.colormatch5k.com to select the colors needed and hold to these colors to keep them to a minimum.
You could also split the page to 2 frames (even I normaly not like them, but ok here), one for the top menu in the top and one for the content, which is easier to mainstream, since you use Frontpage as application.
IM are not a graphics designer, hence I prefer simple webpages, but I do have wrote some jave, php games and jukebox software as well.

Hey, no problem -- its the least I could do.
Actually, the least I could do would be not to reply at all, but that would be just downright rude!

Westhost doesn't look bad at all, especially given the near root-like access you get with a VPS rather than traditional web hosting.

I decided to give it a go and have started to build my own over the next few weeks while work is quiet. I've used a template similar to one I was after and have modified it to how I want it to basically look. The shell has been uploaded and proper content will be being updated over the coming weeks.
Thanks to all who advised.
