Custard7A is an unknown quantity at this point
Occasionally I have made concepts of web-pages in Photoshop, when I'm trying to brainstorm a good idea. I forgot to mention probably the most obvious flaw with the image-to-webpage idea.. As you say "I was curious if people could literally design their web-page like an architect and a house", and "If you are good with a program like GIMP you could create some really artistic webpages". Truthfully, web-pages have never been limited by lack of artistic designers, as much as the functionality of the styling. Everything is boxes because that's all that HTML and CSS have done consistently. If you make a program like you describe, then the chances of someone drawing — or trying to draw — a creative web-page that isn't actually possible in HTML and CSS is very high indeed, and that is the sad truth.
