don't the words look a bit blurry on the webpage?

You say exactly what I thought :)

The vote is on the right part of the website. I think (Note: I'm NOT sure) you might have to register to vote.

Hey, Chris! I incorporated your 3D logo into the Code::Blocks exe! 8) I also gave you credit on the "about" dialog ;-)

if time wasn't such an issue i would suggest looking at a new portal system, drupal ( http://www.drupal.org/ ), to be precise. it's a lot cleaner, more customizable (sp?) and doesn't make every site look the same (if you use a good theme), like most *Nuke's do.

I agree with that, I was thinking that the current design is good, but I don't like the sharp borders of all items,
I like a lot the rounded borders of that drupal page, it's like the firefox page. Very good.

I'd suggest creating a a CMS rather than using another one, this will also come to show developers that you mean business, and that you are trying to be more professional.

Do you realize how much time it has to be INVESTED in creating a CMS from scratch? We need a usable webpage, and we need it fast.

here i am,
i think with just a few adjustments the design really looks nice and professional. look at this:
http://files.xardias.net/images/codeblocks.jpg
the current template is not very css customizeable, so i needed to replace some bgcolors in the html code. but this is just an suggestion it just needs some replacements. i used the colors from the logo image.

PS: it is hard to create non sharp borders, without wasting the whole template with tables for layouting tons of images. mozilla has some css extensions, so it can display rounded borders, but with any other browser the edges still look sharp. (take the Intenret Explorer and look at the firefox page)
