Eh, you probably have better reasons than that (mine ATM is time). I myself only have maybe passable web-design skills yet I put next to no web-design into the site I help admin. For awhile now,
the CBL site has just been a forum with a portal mod which really doesn't take that much technical know-how. Or you could go with
Fidel's service and use the online league template he made for his online league clients. Sure, it won't look very unique or flashy, but IMO a cool looking website isn't necessary for a good online league.

It's tougher than you think,

Oh, believe me, I know it's not the easiest thing in the world.
And I certainly wouldn't recommend someone to just go and throw one to together or anything. I was just saying that it might be time for him to start his own. I think a lot of us who have ended up starting one one day got to that point where we decided we wanted something either very specific or at least much better than what they could find so we finally jumped in.
I suppose the tone of "commishes never seem to get their **** together" also got to me a bit so I suppose I was trying to say in a polite way, "instead of complaining about how others are doing things, just go and do it yourself". But I've certainly been there to and sometimes you'd like to, but there's a myriad of reasons why it might not be a good idea.
Anyway, I'm glad he replied because if a lack of web-design skills is the only thing holding him back then I don't think he need hold himself back any longer.
