As the title says if noone has stepped forward to redo the Website that blue had created. Then my sister who is a web designer has agreed to do a barebone page that can have the items and such edited in later.

Any ideas on which code you guys want it done in? PHP?

I'm only somewhat familiar with HTML myself as far as web coding languages go.

PHP 5.3 with MySQL or PostgreSQL are available on our current web hosting.

I'm also available to help a little bit.

Yah for the record the website I made kinda sucks. I was wanting to re-design the website when I started work on my next project but I haven't updated the old one in a long time.

I originally thought I would have time to do this as it stands now I have little to no free time between classes planning a wedding and being a dad.

The easy part is designing and constructing the pages. PHP will make it easier but honestly anyone with Dreamweaver could do a decent job.
The hard part is populating and updating the database. Either someone has to spend a lot of time checking/updating each item or spend a lot of time developing an update method where the excel files containing the item stats can be fed to the database. The problem with the later is the item modifiers in the excel files are not all in a consistent format. Also labeling of each modifier such as "Enhanced Damage" or "To Attack Rating" would most likely occur on the HTML side.

I would forgo the idea of loading item stats into databases.
Instead I would use the PHP server to facilitate a website without frames.
White item pages are easy to build using excel which are currently built sitting on the web server. However the other item pages I believe are best updated manually. That isn't to say someone can not automate all of it, but I wouldn't :)
