A Calibre WYSWYG?

Hi, all.

I've been searching for anything remotely like a WYSWYG editor for an epub book and haven't had any luck at all.

I love the idea for the recipe section, such as you have in your forum, but are there any sites where we can get a visual example of what the final product looks like?

I've been working with Calibre for some time, but the best output I can create is little more than plain text. Needless to say, there are some gorgeous schemes used and I would love the ability to design them. I am fluent with Dreamweaver and I have heard of using HTML to prepare books for Calibre, but can't find any resources that go beyond the bare basic technical aspects. Do you create a web site or just a page for your book?

Also, my formatting is off no matter what I try. My pages are mismatched and I have no idea of how to insert headers/footers or page numbers.

Are there any simple tutorials online for the basic design capabilities in Calibre? Any help will be most appreciated. Thanks!
