Kevin,

When you create a web with File| New Website it does not add the namespaces in the classes but they are assumed. If you create a web Application project with File | New Solution or Project and you pick Web Application Project you will get namespaces. I do not create any that are not based on project files in part for this reason and many others such as getting all the randomly generated dll files for all the pages. The WAP will create a single dll of the name you specify.

As far as namespaces in your file based web you will need to figure that out. I cannot say I remember how that works as it has been a long time. If you have any of the parts in folders those will add to the namespace.
