---- Text editors: Write-wing conspiracy?

Yesterday, I spent more than a half hour fussing back and forth in html view and the so-called WYSIWYG editor inserting a graphic. When the spacing didn't work out, I noted there were H4 tags left over from something I removed days ago. Other extraneous code in there, but that's another story.

It took me less than a minute when I used FrontPage!

My site is graphic intensive and I write a lot of content, which includes 1-3 graphics on each page.

Oh, and I can't just insert the graphic, I need to go to another page to upload it to a directory, then go to the directory and locate the graphic in the directory, then get right-click to get it's url and copy it, then go back to the editor, click the Image Icon, then paste the image URL, then Save/Submit.

I waste hours every week with this stupid editor. Multiply that by thousands of hours I've been working with this for a year and a half....

I thought a CMS was supposed to make life easier.
