Getting around PANELS in Drupal 6

I have searched, but couldn't find anything.
Any suggestions for a non-programmer type person that just wants to create a homepage with a few regions of text and photos? I think Panels would be great, but in the meantime any suggestions aside from just building something in html? I am really not a programmer - I can barely use Dreamweaver as a last resort!
I couldn't figure out how to use views or any other Drupal 6 modules for my homepage. I just need to set up a few regions and put some photos and text.
Halp!!!!
Use a theme with a lot of regions
If you use a theme with a lot of regions, and place the text and photos you want in blocks, you can get quite good control over your homepage layout. (On the block configuration page there's info on how to make sure the blocks only show up on the front page.)
From a brief look at the theme list, these look promising (I'm sure there are more): http://drupal.org/project/alchemist, http://drupal.org/project/beginningW2, http://drupal.org/project/tapestry
Great. Thanks for the
Great. Thanks for the suggestion!
