What kind of websites were you planning to build?

I wanted to build a simple web site to promote my photo stitching program "Calico" and my lens correction program LensFix. As I am also selling programs on the site, I needed the flexibility of adding code snippets from my payment processor. Having the ability to rapidly change the look of a site by applying a template has many possibilities. It would be nice to have some seasonal templates and surprise users!!!

How did you hear about Sandvox?

I found Sandvox and other Mac web page tools via web searches. After many agonizing which program would be right for me, none are perfect, I decided Sandvox was right for me.

What made you decide to get Sandvox?

I really appreciate the site template approach and find the interface intuitive. Having the ability to inject raw code was the deal closer.

Now that you have Sandvox, what do you like about it?

I do hope for a couple of extra tools such as a color sampler so I can determine the background color of a page and more easily be able to match the color of a snippet with the main page. I was worried at first because other software seemed more supported by users but sometimes the under dog is the better program.

What would be a good way to search for a program like Sandvox?

I searched the web for simple web software to find Sandvox.
