I've been messing with cushycms and it's great for editing content but so many people want to add pages and do more in depth editing (which I am deathly scared of after too many Contribute disaters, I won't name any names). Goodbarry is too big and powerful more most sites I've worked on. So basically I've been messing with WordPress (um, like on this site) and it's pretty darn simple to set up and customize.
What scares me is that suddenly clients will just think a WordPress template is "good enough" for their brand.

Well I never really intended to have a blog because I'm very tainted by the endless blogs that are just lists of other lists or reposting other people's content.
So, anyway, I was messing around with WordPress more and more trying to get in all the nooks and crannies to see what I could get to happen. I am mainly a front-end designer/developer and not up on MySQL and crazy back-end stuff so I really wanted to see how WordPress could handle being a CMS as well.
So now what? You're a designer with no portfolio on your site?
It's complicated all right? Let's leave it at that. It's coming at some point.
