Hello fididdly and welcome to FWT.
Hats off to you for uploading Your Own Code, there is no such thing as a really ugly basic site when you are starting out. The beauty lies in the code you created.

I'm not a Mac user but suggest you stick with TextWrangler over TextEdit, it's not BBEdit but it's beyond BBEdit Lite, as it has remote FTP/SFTP, can perform Find Differences on pairs of files or folders, code writing, or Web site maintenance.
Not bad for a freebe.

I've tried cutting and pasting the CSS code (the best ones seem to be in CSS) in both TextWrangler and TextEdit, then copying and pasting them into the text window where you put your own HTML code. It doesn't work in either Kompozer or Nvu, which I tried.
Ok - let's slowdown for a few milliseconds... With all the excessive rain we have had here, it has impeded my xray vision, so I can not see your code or even your your website.

Tried cut/pasting css code in text window where you put html code!!!
Did you write your own css code?
If you did - then in the html file it should look some thing like this (example code);

Code:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css"> 
<!--
body {
 font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;
 color: #333;
}
a:link {
 color: #000;
}
a:visited {
 color: #F00;
}
a:hover {
 color: #00F;
}
-->
</style>
</head>
 <body>
 your code here
 more code here
</body>
</html>
or are you tring to reference an external style sheet?
All of us (there are several talented people here) need a little more info to help you out.
Post a link or some of the code you are describing, so we can help you solve this.
