hi... for what it's worth. the best approach might be to find a few sites that have the functionality/layout you like. there are probably a few of them that you'll run across that meet what you have in mind. use these as your basic guides. add additional features that you'd like. you now have (roughly speaking) the requirements/functions that you want your final site to have. from here, you can figure out which "scripts" you want to apply, and what you're still going to have to provide. keep in mind that you can't simply throw scripts together, but you can use them to get a sense of the underlying logic. you can also use them to see how to develop your look/feel of your site. looking at various scripts also gives you a chance to think about how you want to implement your security/setup, as well as the underlying database schema.. you can find plenty of apps/scripts on freshmeat.net/sourceforge.net as well. have fun! -----Original Message----- From: Stephen [mailto:stephen-d@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, November 20, 2008 2:17 PM To: PHP-General Subject: Model Web Site My prime hobby is photography and the next is web site building. So now I have a young model (18+) asking me about getting a web site. The idea is members can see content, that will include, photos, her blog and a discussion forum. I like the idea of building it, but it includes a lot of things I have no experience in. Can someone point me to documentation/tutorials/scripts or anything that might help. I don't want a turnkey solution. I want to learn how to do this. Thank you!
