    Can you supply a little more info? Do you mean you want to start a website that advertises your interest in designing sites for others? And you want a CMS for _that_ website? Or do you mean you want an existing CMS that you'll use as the basis for each website you design for others? Or ... ?

    They are all good...

    Each site you design should be based on its own merits and thus a site build for Joomla, might not work for Wordpress and vice versa!

    The nesessary question is...

    Do U intend to write about general webdesign, or about a special cms (the one U use in the site)?

    There R some cms that is very difficult or even "backwords" to make custom layouts with. Unfortunately I have only tried a few and so far I did not like what I found.

    All CMS's tend to be at an IBM-DOS kind'a level if compared to modern Draw applications. :mad:

    I'd recommend MODx as a CMS you only need a few hours of familiarisation to achieve something good. It's an awesome CMS and very quick on its feet. It's got MaxiGallery for holding images.

    Wordpress is a simpler but ease to use CMS. It's not really designed as CMS so it's more difficult to do some more complex things.
