Hi,

I'm putting a website together for a friend, she is a dog breeder. And isn't really computer savy.

It's not meant to be really fancy, I've put together something basic because I don't have much experience. I've got the graphics I want, but I can't seem to put it together correctly in Dreamweaver, it just gets muddled up and I have no idea what to do or how CSS or style sheets work or anything.

here is what I want it to look like

The buttons I'm not too fussed about, just basic text will do, and something that I can change in my text editor/dreamweaver.

I noticed most websites images are cut up individually, so I thought I'd see how I best do it.
header

footer

middle

or (not sure what one is useful..

The background is all green (#497647). Where the black box is, with text and pictures, I want that to be on top of everything after the header, middle and footer are centered, so then I can edit the text and pictures easily... And if I extend the middle ground down to make room for text I want the footer to go down too, the red is where the limit of the text will extend so it doesn't get in way of the flowers.


I tried having a go in dreamweaver, but I have no idea how to do this. Is tehre anyone here who can quickly put it together with dreamwaver if they know how or HTML and post the html here for me?
Or link me to a tutorial if it's a lot of trouble?

Thanks!
