I have 2 goals: 1) to worry about plumbing as little as possible, as I generate articles and content. Once a framework is established, this can be handled "cookie cutter." 2) to create a unique brand identity based on good eye candy. For this part of the problem, the website cannot look generic. At a minimum, I would need a facility that allows me to painlessly arrange my own 2D artwork. -- Cheers, www.indiegamedesign.com Brandon Van Every Seattle, WA "The pioneer is the one with the arrows in his back." - anonymous entrepreneur -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
