I have read all the comments posted here, to date. I am not a great code person. Although, I have written code, back in the 90s using MS Word, to make websites. It was training for Microsoft certification. I have many coding books, but have not been able to grasp it. My talents lie elsewhere. I have owned several versions of Dreamweaver, but I just need a basic website. The website will not be for purchasing, it is to show a portfolio of work. It will list services available and a contact form for questions. It will include samples of work. I have a question, if you save your Muse website, then send it to HTML, don't you still have the original Muse files to work with to make changes, assuming you are a subscriber? I see many saying once you publish you cannot edit. Why can't you go back to the original files and make your changes (especially if new widgets are available to do what you wish that may not have been previously available)? Or is this just for when one entity makes it and publishes that another does not have access to those files to change the site? Just looking for clarification here. Although, I believe it is the lack of Muse files because they didn't do the original creation. I just found Muse this past weekend when I restarted my CC subscription after having it off for 10 months because the cost was not worth the minimal usage I was getting from the products. I had reverted to my Adobe Master Suite CS5. Something else that sticks out, is the lambasting of Muse because newbies find they can create decent websites and then sell them to others who, as they grow, cannot get more functionality from them. Consider this, those who purchased those services from a Muse user, most likely was looking for cheap. They got cheap. Maybe they were informed, at the time of purchase (maybe) that the site would be limited in growth and functionality. Maybe the $$$$ dictated their decision. It is possible a very talented designer made the site to the client's needs and budget. The client never believing it would be expensive to make changes in the future, should they be warranted. Maybe.... Just saying that not every situation was a "developer" selling a service because they can, but a client wanting as much as they can get, as quick as they can, for as little as possible. I see that everyday. Then when they need the growth, they seem shocked to find out their page is inadequate.
