    Ok. I want to start a website. For Photoshop and After Effects tutorials. I want to design it to look how I want. BUT, I want two blogs on it as pages.

    I want one that is called "Blog" and another that is called tutorials...

    I want them to be integrated flawlessly with my site design, so that it look like just another page on the site.

    Like this....www.videocopilot.net

    If you go to the blog page, you can see it's a wordpress blog, but it looks just like a regular page.

    For the Second blog, I want it to be more like a content management system.

    I want it to be a page, (integrated as before) that works much like this site.

    http://maltaannon.com

    Where it shows a little preview pic of the tutorial, (which will be video tutorials) and an overview of the description.

    Then if you click on the image or the post title, it takes you to the full page where you can comment and find the full description and the link to the video...But I don't want it to say how many comments it has on the title like that site..

    So basically, I want two SEPERATE blogs on seperate databases, INTEGRATED with my site design smoothly...

    Mainly, I need help with getting it to act like a normal page on my site...Can you help?

    It's a long job with a fair bit of customisation, it's possible to do yourself but you'll have to learn and such. Unfortunately I think you'll have to pay someone or if you're lucky find someone with a lot of free time and the capabilities.

    I agree with this, to do all these, you must learn by yourself along the way and if you meet problems, you can ask here.

    Don't plan to start and expect people to answer a whole lot of your questions. To be honest with you, the starting might not be guided as many variations will occur. Try things out yourself before you ask.:)

    If you look at the blog on www.videocopilot.net, It looks like this site is using a customized version on the WordPress default theme to run the site. It could be possilbe to do this using a static front page for the site and individual custom pages for the other page tabs across the top.

    It may be possible to do this with only one blog or database.

    No, I know the guy who designed it, it's not. But he won't tell me how he did the tutorials lol.
