Hey Joseph,

I'm pro postnuke.com. I've used it on several sites and you can get alot of plugin features from the community. Calendars, forums, games, photo galleries, classifieds, personals, etc. It has all levels of permissions for users and admins.

You can see one of the sites in action here.

<< snipped to comply with forum policy >>

If you are interested in building something like that, let me know. you can email me at lonny@newvisiondevelopment.com

Best regards,

Lonny

Wow, easy there. I think you're getting a bit ahead of yourself. A portal page is going to be dynamic, which means that it will be based on a server side programming language. You'll need to research how to find a good web hosting company with database support, and set up a database. You'll then need to find some type of portal script to power this new database-driven website.

As far as I am concern,you have two major options to choose from and that's "Drupal or Joomla".The open source softwares are constantly being designed or created with your wishes and thoughts in mind.Once installed and setup,you need no technical know-how to operate any of these state-of-the-art CMS.Anything you can think of is achievable expecially with drupal as it is the most optimized cms in recent times for SEO
