Homepage CM
« Reply #105 on: April 15, 2006, 03:46:39 am »
I stumbled over some content managers (CM) like  Mambo  and then over Joomla  I asked in IRC and got referred to this.
A comparison and list of different CMs.

As I see this thread also being about the mainpage and how to polish it, I think a new and OS CM would be nice for that.
I really have not much experience in those, but I\'ve seen the pages and like to keep the ball rolling with updating the forums and the mainpage.

So, if you know about those CMs and like to tell your experiences with them, feel free :)

Well I have some experiences using Mambo/Joomla and at the moment with Drupal. Drupal is very great, flexible and cool  :)
I am providing a german PS-site (using drupal) and, well I really would help you to restructure your site, but I am not really a great designer...
I have some ideas on restructuring the site for a better usability and I am also willing to reimplement the content etc. in the new structure, so I could do all the "dirty" timeconsuming things.
My question here is, if there is any sense in doing basic brainwork and if there is a graficsdesigner* in your team who would like to work together with me.
To the point, taht I may suddenly disaapear:
I love planeshift :love:, I am hosting the germanps-site for about 10 months and improving it nearly once every two weeks, and of course I promis  :flowers:

PS: nice smileys  :thumbup:
_____________
*since I see the biggest problems in the usabilty, I even could use the existing look and grafics and only restructure it.

I would say that if you're interested in working on PS site, by all means, do so, even though I'm already working on it. This isn't a competition, so it's fine. I think josePhoenix is working on one as well. =)

Well... I didn't know :-)
Wouldn't it make sense to work together?

No, keep it secret, keep it safe! ;]

If you like, I will PM you when I am done with my part. We can then take it from there.

I think it is awsome :thumbup: that you guy are putting this much effort into the look and feel of the PS web experience (both the forums and the website) \\o//
I have seen many color combos that i like, and they just seem to get better and better.
Hats of to you who have contributed!! \\o//   Keep up the awsome work.
