Advice needed in converting HTML website to PHP based one

    I have a website, that has been completely done in HTML. Here is the link: 3dsMaxResources.com. I want some one this forum to suggest about the possibilities of succeeding in converting the website from HTML to PHP based one. I normally update the website by posting the tutorials on 15-20 days basis. I want to add the content through a submission forum and the images that I post with the tutorials should be able to automatically fit into the middle section of the website. All repeated sections (header, footer, ads, navigation and more) need to be changed so that they will serve as "includes" - this way any changes made to any of those "included" pages will automatically reflect the changes. One more important thing is that I want make free registration compulsory to view the content of the website. I have a resources and links section in the website to which I manually add links, is it possible to add the links by using a forum link the one shown in the following link: Submission forum. Any suggestions and help would be greately appreciated.
    With regards,
    Srinivas.

    Is that really a good idea? I'd suggest that you think carefully about how Google (and other search engines) will index your content if it's only available to registered viewers...
