As for taking classes, it sounds like your best bet is the continuing education department at a college. I checked UBC, but they don't seem to have a basic web-site design class going, but I could be wrong. Anyhoo, here's a couple colleges to check out:

To design my web-pages I use Microsoft Front Page and Dreamweaver MX 2004. They do cost money but the results are great.
Another thing you can do to design your web-page--it is kind of sneaky, but a friend of mine said it is done all the time--is when you see a web-page you really like you can do File then Edit with Microsoft Front Page or do File then Save As webpage, complete which will save all the CSS, graphics, HTML and stuff for that page and use whatever web-page design program you have to edit the web-page to make it the way you like it for yourself.
As far as I am aware, one cannot "prevent" copying of pictures or images from the intranet. Even if you can't do the right click and "save picture as" you can do the "print screen" and paste to a photo editing program like Paint (which comes with every Windows OS program.
Once your picture or video gets out there in cyberspace it is a free for all, and I think it is pointless to think about who is stealing what and copyright issues. Maybe one thing to do is select only those images you are okay with the world "stealing" and let people know if they want more to contact you directly or set up your web-page that people need to be a member or something in order to be able to view the images.
Good luck!
