Paradox,
Good luck with the template. I am using that template also, and signed a few players before I did much in the way of changing it. I have also rebuilt it on another domain and rewrote the navigation from scratch.
I consider myself a REAL WEB PUBLISHER, as I have been both a Webmaster as well as a Web HOST for a number of years now.
I continue to use, Front Page, Dreamweaver as well as alot of editing in notepad….Although front page does add a bit of unnecessary code bloat to pages, I spend more time in Front Page than any other development tool.
Dreamweaver has their own set of extensions, and if you have ever tried to use any of them, they also have their own set of problems associated with them as well.
Now if you want to talk about how unstable the Front Page extensions are (on a UNIX/Linux Box) that is a different story. 
I run “mostly” windows servers, and NEVER have a problem with the extensions.
Had the designers at Gaming Income taken the time to remove a few fp references in the head statement, as well as the vti’s you would never have even known that Front Page was ever used.
