So I'm trying to throw together a very basic website to showcase a series of images as a slideshow. I've decided on using the following website as a rough guide/template:

www.dbox.com

It is a very minimal website: a continuous slideshow of images against a white background with a couple links at the bottom. I'm planning to use Dreamweaver, which i've heard is pretty straightforward. I may use a different transition for the slideshow (I assume the "slicing" transition is some type of script or setting that could easily be applied in Dreamweaver), but other than that, how long would it take me to design something like this? Although I'm new to web design, I have about 15 years of proficiency with most Adobe graphics applications such as photoshop, illustrator, etc so I don't think the learning curve will be too bad.

Any thoughts or tips would be appreciated. Thanks guys.

You'll probably need some kind of flash based web designer to do a site like that.

I have no clue as to the amount of time to do it though.

Not totally clear on what you're looking for, but maybe this javascript library could help?

Would it be hard to do something similar in Dreamweaver? I guess I could try flash instead.

The actual slideshow transition is not that important. I'm just trying to get a sense of how hard it would be to make a similar overall website in Dreamweaver.
