Thanks for your interest.

Things have moved on a little, I’ve used the process of creating content types, then associated views, and finally adding them to the menus. It’s definitely a better way to go and I’m getting more positive feedback from my users.

I’ll write another post in the very near future to better layout my approach. The main fly in the Drupal ointment at the moment is slick image upload handling. I tried TinyMCE and IMCE to solve the problem, but they’re not talking to each other… still on my waiting list.

The Drupal learning curve isn’t too steep, especially if your familiar with PHP, and I’d recommend giving it a go even if you’re not.
