If you make webpages, how do you create them? What tools do you use?

There are several tools you can use. I prefer to use Macromedia's Dreamweaver for checking the layout of the design and graphics.
For graphics I use Jasc's Paint Shop Pro. Again, the tools really are a matter of personal preference, and there are many choices to select from. Some options are of the freeware variety and others are available as limited trial versions (you can get the MX version of Dreamweaver in trial form at www.macromedia.com).

there is an awesome free web editor 1page 2000

its not a whatyouseeis whatyou get editor like dreamweaver, however it does have helpful tools for making visual stuff, but its an editorfor those who want to do the scripts themselves(though ti does have a script library) ... so it does highlight properly for html ,javascript, asp , php etc etc, has good tools to upload to your website and the rest...

I like it alot..

because my web stuff is often asp, or php as well as plain html..

OK just to round out the selection figured I'd pop in a vote for Visual Studio.Net. It's expencive but at present there is no other option I know of for building ASP.Net Apps

I use Dreamweaver & Flash for websites and Photoshop for graphics. Like Nfek said though, it's not really the tool that matters.

I use TextPad. It is a text editor, and one of the best.

I use Netscape Composer to start pages, and text editors to finish and maintain them.
