a) seeing the sights

I'd include 3-4 days in Chiang Mai. The city itself is a good tourist destination with good options for P4P and legit massage/relaxation. In addition there is a ton of day trip options. Two I can recommend are to Chiang Rai/Golden triangle area and to the highest mountain in Thailand. It's in a national park to the WSW of Chiang Mai. Take a coat. It was only 5 degrees the day I went.
A lot of people have told me the rail trip from BKK to Chiang Mai is good.

You really need to give more info on what it is that you are looking for to allow "specific" suggestions. The alternative is general suggestions and while its always recommended to See Chiang Mai/Rai, it seems you have a focus on "beach" areas - something that could have assisted FFS. There's an entire country to explore what you want and like will be different to others....
With Pattaya, Phuket, and Samui - what are you looking for? Some p4p destination nearby the sea? If so, the level of p4p from high to low was in the order I listed. Want to do a lot of swiming and water sports? You may find the water quality in Pattaya a little disappointing and may prefer cleaner water over a large p4p scene....which would then make you look at Phuket & Samui - both offering different experiences. And of course, you have the large islands etc etc
A little bit more info on your end would assist you in the end with better suggestions. If its just general places to go, get the lonely planet travel guide and start from there or alternatively, do some research on the www. Once you see a place that like, you can come back to the forum and using the search function see if other members have shared their experiences there.
Hope that helps.

Beach wise I think if perhaps you find TG 'guide' and want sort of Natural... go to Cha Am... especially during the week, very quiet, only 2 hours south of Bkk, and easy to rent a guest house room or apartment, or up market Methavali Hotel.. If you like a little more comfort, some 'farang" food etc, go the extra 30 mins to hua Hin - the Hilton there great place to stay, and under US$100 per night - well worth it. Easy to get to, I would hire a rental car if your confident of driving.

Shearski,
As others have said detail what you want to do then we can advise you better.
One of my best trips was to hiri a 4x4 pickup from QCars BKK and drive upto Chaing Mai, stopping off enroute for a night and at places of interest. Spent afew days in and around Chang Mai and then headed down and across to The River Kwia few another few days then back to BKK.
Driving in BKK is not unlike driving in London it's just the traffic lights take for ever to change. Once out of BKK driving can be a pleasure, truck drivers pull over to let you pass on hills etc, plus the cars are RHD.
Hua Hin has good beaches and a lower key night life but my pal and I did manage to clear out a beer bar and take all the girls to the Hilton Disco.
The town of Pattaya can be a bit too much in you face at times, so hire a motor bike or car and get out and about. There's the wooden temple N of town, animal parks, shooting ranges, gocart tracks, marinas and cleaner beaches etc etc all within an hours or so drive.
Try one of the smaller islands but take along a friend as they can be in short supply offshore!!!!
As Greenslime so politely said do some searching in Other Places in Thailand, Pattaya, Phuket. For Pattaya try Pattayapages.com Chaing Mai and Hua Hin also have forums. Buy an up todate Travel Guide if your going to hire a car buy your maps in Asia Books BKK for the latest editions.
Post up your trip dates and arrange to meet up with a board member.
UKP.
