9. I'm not opposed to switching frameoworks

At the moment it's not going to happen, I'm halfway done with my current project. No reason not to switch, though, if it makes the HTML side easier. .Net forms is cumbersome (and can go away afaic). .Net MVC is nice, but nothing in there makes HTML easy.

Are these template schemes like visual HTML objects you place on the page? Like, say I wanted a photo gallery, would I just use a photo gallery template? Are the templates easy to modify on the fly?

Does it take long to learn Python or Rails? Say if I could do a nice website in 3 months after I've learn it, then how long would it take to create that same site if I were learning as I go?
