Building Drupal Themes with Artisteer
Artisteer
is not Dreamweaver-related, but is a fairly new product that allows complete beginners to create HTML templates, Joomla templates, Drupal themes and WordPress themes. The interface is really quite good, and it doesn't take very long to be able to create some very unique Drupal themes.
Artisteer's layouts are all CSS and they are well designed for cross-browser compatibility, albeit the code is a little fat. But if you are looking for a way to create a custom Drupal theme quickly without digging into the code, check out Artisteer. There are Home and Standard editions, priced at $49.95 and $129.95 respectively.
