<p>I really want to create a personal website to organize my writings/upload pictures/etc, but I am not familiar with HTML. I think my university offers each student webspace, but I am not sure how to get started. Does anyone know of a good website/program to do this? Any general advice would also be greatly appreciated!!</p>
<p>1st page via Google search:</p>

<p><----still wishes he should've invested in Google when it was IPO <em>sigh</em></p>
<p>anyways, good luck =]</p>
<p>I used this site a little when I was learning HTML:
<a href="https://www.mainfunction.com/DotNetInAction/Technologies/display.aspx?ID=2505&TypeID=12%5B/url%5D">https://www.mainfunction.com/DotNetInAction/Technologies/display.aspx?ID=2505&TypeID=12</a></p>
<p>It's pretty basic, but useful.</p>
<p>I used angelfire (<a href="http://www.angelfire.com%5B/url%5D">www.angelfire.com</a>) ... they not only give you the space but also lots of templates which you can just "fill in" </p>
<p>the sucky part is that they give you like ZERO bandwith ... but unless your site will be getting tons of visitors, it's not a problem.</p>
<p>if you do something like angelfire, then you need to know basically nothing, but even if you're doing your own scripting, with some basic kknowledge of html, css, you can make a decent website</p>
<p>If you decided to pick up a bit of html, I recommend checking out html</a> goodies. When I was 12, I was really into web design as a hobby, and I would refer to that site often.</p>
<p>it's one of those things where it takes a few days to get comfortable, but it's quite easy once you get the hang of it</p>
<p><a href="http://www.htmldog.com%5B/url%5D">http://www.htmldog.com</a> is pretty good.</p>
<p>I use DreamWeaver, but that might be a bit more than you need. It costs about $400, but you can use it for 30 days free to build you website. Then just get rid of it. You can download it from <a href="http://www.macromedia.com%5B/url%5D">www.macromedia.com</a></p>
<p>I can make your site for a pretty cheap price. PM me if interested.</p>
<p>Maybe you should start a [url=<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weblog%5Dblog%5B/url">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weblog]blog[/url</a>].
[url=<a href="http://www.blogger.com%5DBlogger%5B/url">http://www.blogger.com]Blogger[/url</a>] is free, easy to use, and quite powerful.
[url=<a href="http://www.wordpress.org%5DWordPress%5B/url">http://www.wordpress.org]WordPress[/url</a>] is awesome if you have your own webspace and know a bit about web site creation.</p>
<p>thanks for the great responses</p>
