SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Greetings,

I would like to throw together a website that would be a combination of gaming blog and host for the new version of Runebearer and other games I have written. I am going for a fairly minimal look and feel to start. Does anyone have any suggestions for easy website creation software, or a turnkey package?

Thanks,
Chris Magoun
Runebearer RPG

Since you asked, I suppose it wouldn't be spamming to do a little sales promotion...

GoDaddy.com offers a few different options for that stuff.  I know there is a Quick Blogcast product and a Website Tonight product that allow you to create and maintain those pages easily.  They are both monthly-fee structured, though - but the website one includes hosting and email products for free (you can even get SSL included for the more deluxe plans).  Plus, you'd be eligible for the 1.99 domain registration with that, too.  There is also custom website design.

Disclaimer: I have never used any of these product personally.

Best hosting/design site for those with little or no HTML coding experience. Lots of templates to choose from. You can host forums, blogs, and general websites through them. If you decide to get an online store going, I think they have some ways to do that aswell.

And for some reason, whenever I open it in Firefox, it kills the program...

Yeah, that's a really good quick startup site, and they even offer domain hosting and some other features with a subscription.

Strangest thing - it happens consistently. Open the site in a new tab, click on one of the links - something like explore examples or whatever - and Firefox horks....
