web 2.0 sucks huge floppy disks?

I was able to create a web site 10 years ago with Microsoft Frontpage without learning anything, today with a copy of Adobe Dreamweaver CS6, I can't even figure out a way to change the font size of a simple text. CSS is the thing, so I went through the CSS tutorials in w3 and I get it now. It's a good idea, but It is also a good idea to kill creativity, ie all sites like similar, see screenshot below. It sucks floppy disks.

My questions will be:

1. Does web 2.0 really kill creativity?

2. Is there a "modern" web design application that I don't need to go into these CSS thing?

3. Is there a way to create a circular navigation menu like this using css? I want to have this menu in the middle of the page, and with a button on the corner to activate it.
