Good question. My suggestion in that case would be vBulletin aka vBPortal.:o

For a powerful, robust, and free CMS, I would recommend www.mamboserver.com

I see you wrote you've tried mambo in the past already. Bad experience?

Well not exactly bad , Infact I liked it . but had some probs on my side , like it sometimes didn`t show up the admin panel in firefox . i donno why though

Second being it`s a heavy site for personal use , and I don`t think I need a portal right now .

Well I never have any problems using Firefox viewing the ACP nor anything else infct, since you dont want to just an opening index page navigator like, then I would sugest something more along the site of CMS instead such as PHP-Nuke or Nuke-Platinum. <-- you can get support at my site for that and downloada copy there for that 1 or get the copy at the original developers site at www.techgfx.com. Either or are both considerably highly recommended over any other CMS unless youd like a custom 1 which I COULD help there also but barley have the time since im now working three jobs plus running a 1 man operative buissness. But give those a try and tell me what you think.

O yea, by the way, I also recommend MamboServer myself just like Daniell said. I just now saw her post, but she is correct on that also!

Have you used Drupal? I've heard a lot of people using this for blogs. I would suggest Mambo, but it already has been mentioned.:cheesy:
