Tools Used to Create the Site

I've been asked what tools I use to create this site so I'd like to list the software I use. If you have any questions about anything, please let me know.
I use RapidWeaver for the following pages:
The theme is a heavily modified version of Blueball Design's High-Def Color theme which was modded using CSSEdit
The photo galleries are stored in iPhoto; taken from my digital camera or scanned via XSane; edited by Gimp and Pixelmatore; generated by Galerie (uploaded with ForkLift); and linked via RapidWeaver.
The movies are taken from my digital camera and converted to .mp4 using HandBrake (H.264). JWPlayer is used to display the videos.
All files are FTP'ed either by RapidWeaver or ForkLift. Seems like a lot of work but I want things to look a certain way and am willing to take some time to do it right. I had tried to migrate the entire site to Drupal or Joomla (server-side content management system) but didn't want to learn PHP and thought the site was less responsive.
