Aaron,

what are we discussing here, modernization of 5250 apps or public web 
pages,
IMHO it is two different things.

What I have done in the past that works well is to have a creative 
developer
(what we call them) put together a template for the home page and a 
template
for internal pages.  Then I as the programmer add form field content to 
the
designated template areas.

Works pretty well and doesn't cost that much (around $1k - 2k depending on
how extensive your template is).  That's a small amount to pay to have a
site that is pleasing to look at - which in turn keeps people on your site
longer than a single click.
