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.

Ich you really consider to switch to another (more professional) cms system, i would really suggest mambo.
i really like the current design, but maybe i can try to do some css modifications. after i registered at the forums ;)

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)

I'm about to make a design using this techniques if you're still intrested in a new design I might have one in two/three weeks (on the conditions I can use the layout on my own personal page, with different colors)...Know it's a little late, but still...
