Pondering a new site (once again)

Once again, I have grown tired of my web site. It’s ugly and doesn’t do what I want any more. It’s great for an aggregation point, but I think I want something that doesn’t just pull all the content in. I want something where the content originates as well. A flat starting point where all the content comes together as one as opposed to little modules linking from the main page. In other words, I’m not entirely sure of what I want, but I know I want something more. I’m willing to code most of it and find all the right pieces to make it work. The one problem I’m having is that I want something pretty to look at. My skillz in that department are pathetic at best. If I can just get the design part of it down, the code for the rest of it will just flow from my fingertips!
