My 7 year old nephew is interested in designing a web page - nothing too complex, soccer pictures, pics of his dogs, with captions - thing like that. Of course, he loves zooming Flash animation and the like, and he wants it to look “fancy, like a real website!” Any recommendations for a very user-friendly program I could buy him for Yule? PC 'puters only. ---

Well, if he insists on Flash, go for [Adobe Macromedia Studio 8](http://www.macromedia.com/software/studio/?promoid=BIOA). Only $999.00 😃 Yes, I said Adobe. They bought Macromedia earlier this month. ---

Addendum [Koolmoves](http://www.koolmoves.com/index.html), a Flash authoring tool for $45.00. Never tried it. Yet. As for a simple web tool, try Contribute, also from Adobe Macromedia.
