Thus far I have seen no one actually ask how skilled thunder is at html 
Not
that good but I enjoy keeping control of my code - I've seen to many people get crappy code because they dragged a table a bit to far and had to move it back or something like that in college to try it now. And you've hit the nail on the head - I enjoy knowing
exactly what a page is made up of - not vague ideas but being lost without a pretty GUI. As it is I can now read other peoples pages a lot better than I used to be able to in raw HTML just by doing my own in Notepad.
I'm no guru, but I know enough to get by for what I need. Example of what I've done?

Edit: And yes, that is me in the picture of the war protest in the news section. I'm lurking
