Free website design and hosting?

[Insanimation]

I'm looking to make a website, but I haven't got any money to spend on it..does anyone know of any sites that offer free domain names for free that look somewhat professional or nice..I'm obviously not gonna get a .com domain, but maybe something that isn't something like these:

www.yourusername.hi.lol.co.gov.ok.net (I'd prefer a domain with no more than 2 short subdomains)
www.example.com/yourusername/
www.yourusername.example.com

Also, does anybody know of a site that offers free website building (don't know the correct terms) that either is slightly obscure, so that people don't recognise the templates, or that you can upload other templates...

I apologise if this is in the wrong forum, but I'm pretty sure it isn't...

Thanks,

http://co.nr and http://co.cc are good free domains.

Free hosting is everywhere these days.

I dunno about free templates, I always thought those where lame. But you can upload any premade layout to any website, and modify it how you want. The sites you are talking about just do that for you, but it's not that hard.

OK, thanks, I think .co.cc looks adequate for me..

Any other posters? It seems odd that a thread only got 26 views in General at a fairly prime time...
