Is there an open source or freeware software similar to Frontpage?

I’m looking for a software that will allow me to make a website without HTML. I can write in HTML, but I’m not as creative with it because I need to see what I’m doing as I do it. Thanks.

Good Freeware email cleaning client?

OK I used the Trial version of Mailwasher Pro for my non web-based email but the time has expired and I am looking for a freeware replacement. It needs to be able to allow me to view the emails and assign an entire domain to a blacklist or mark as safe then it will bounce or at minimum delete the mail before downloading to my local drive. Mailwasher has been the perfect solution however I am looking for freeware or opensource options. Any suggestions?

Remember SplashTop? Here’s An Update On Them

Do you remember SplashTop? It’s the instant-on Linux environment that was originally embedded into select ASUS motherboards three years ago and from there worked its way to other motherboards and then onto notebooks and other devices from a variety of vendors. We effectively launched SplashTop for DeviceVM, the company behind this instant-on Linux distribution, when we got our hands on SplashTop early and were the first in the world to provide a detailed analysis of SplashTop.

How to Create Flames in Gimp

To me, that also includes my wallpaper. As regular readers may know, I like to create my own abstract wallpapers and I’m a fan of the Gimp. Today we’re going to use Gimp to create flame wallpaper for your desktop. This process will work on any system that can run Gimp (Windows, Linux, OSX) without any additional plugins or textures.
