For HTML work: plain old text editor
For server side scripting: I use PHP or JSP.
For images: the Gimp or Photoshop.

I've heard a lot of good things about GIMP. I've been using a really old version of corel draw/ photo paint since I've always been too cheap to buy anything else.

As far as web dev goes, if you aren't heavy on it, I'd just buy a template or get a free one and learn a little simple html to modify it to suit your needs.

I really like the Gimp. Especially being a linux user...

Okay i have gimp and i need to know how to use it now.Also How do you make like slide shows using gimp like RageD's .

It's designed to work similarly to Photoshop. Google is your friend on this one...you'll find more tutorials that way than any other way I knwo of.

Any time

Notepad, or Dreamweaver in Code Mode.

if you are good at html i would recommend notepad, else you can try dreamweaver or frontpage.

Yes, I prefer Dreamweaver myself when I just need to get a concept going with a few tables, etc. For things like logos or buttons, I prefer Photoshop.

Well, here's what I use:

Page Design: Macromedia Dreamweaver MX2004
Scripting: Crimson Editor
Graphic Design: Adobe Photoshop CS, Adobe Illustrator CS, Macromedia Fireworks MX2004, Macromedia Flash MX2004 Pro, Xara X1 & CorelDraw 12.

There is quite a diverse set of programs there. Obviously, if you are just starting out, you probably won't need all of those, just a few (Dreamweaver & Photoshop would serve you well).

Hi,

for the graphics I suggest using adobe since it also comprises file
which would be good if your making heavy graphics it could comprises the file size
and still have amazing results. and I think combining multiple languages
would give excellent results. ex( combinin
XML,PHP,HTML,DHTML,JAVASCRIPT, and VBSCRIPT);
