Look into getting your team up and running with Sevaa (more information here) they provide free webhosting to FIRST teams, and all you have to pay for is the domain. My team currently uses it and it is really simple to use.

Thanks,
If you know how to write the site, (HTML, CSS ..etc) I suggest using Syn Text Editor it also has support for other programming languages but it is useful when writing the page, because if you mess up a syntax the color coding for the page wont show from the error and later.

Dream weaver tends to limit what you can do unless you are an experience coder. I really don't care for dream weaver.

When it comes to making images for the sites, if you've got the cash I recommend either Corel - Paint Shop Pro , or Photoshop. Another good application is The Gimp .

If you ever need any help with it, you can always PM me, or send me an IM.
