In my last year of school (1999), I created the web site for our journalism program's annual publication by mimicking the layout of Salon.com, which I liked because it had clean lines and its design was reasonably easy to recreate in Notepad. From what I recall (and I hope a View Source of the HTML corroborates this), I didn't simply rip off the Salon.com HTML verbatim - instead, I first pasted in all the text I needed on each page, and then added the paragraphs, fonts, tables, and images by hand, because I didn't want to bring along any unnecessary scraps of code. I didn't know CSS at that time, so the HTML was really simplistic, to say the least.
