Stan, there are lots and lots of ideas about what's a 'nice' site! Different people have different tastes, and different site designing abilities. Looking at a site from a potential customer's viewpoint, and from a signie's viewpoint will give different responses & thoughts too. What's your budget? You could try and do one yourself, learn, and improve it with time, or talk to a kid at school who's done a bit, or pay someone big or small bucks to do it. A big aspect is trying to optimise pictures to keep maximum detail in them, but minimum/fast download time. Ask yourself if you want lots of pictures, a gallery with thumb nails, a collage, or a few pix only, and how many web 'pages' and categories you need. Lay out a broad design of possible links and contents on paper first, and muddle your way forward from there depending on your level of impatience and finance! As Gail said, there have been other threads a bit like this. I was helped too, by a few questions and some good & appreciated answers. Good Luck!
