***Please no flaming etc***

I'm a member of a community gaming / multigaming clan, and I've literally had enough of the portal software we have been using for nearly 2 years. Basially its vbulletin with a few added extras. I.e. vwar.

What we're after is basically a much more professional looks and featue packed website.

- CMS system backbone
- News (catagoried: team news, scene news, upcoming events, etc)
- Matches (results pages, internal players match signups etc)
- Achievements
- Files
- Full member profiles, division info

Basically, very much like www.junk52.com.

I realise we have 2x options:

- Pay for someone to do this for us (Had a quote of 450euros inc. gfx and code and is way too much for us really)

- Get a open source CMS system backbone (www.mamboserver.com) and see if I can get someone to do the graphics and a few tweaks on top of that. Is this option viable???

I would really appreciate your opinions on which would be the best option to go for. Also if there is any web guys that would like a crack at this for a reasonable price?
 
I hate those standard CMS like PHP Nuke etc so I was in the same boat as you. Made a couple of sites for other people. I think its very hard to find a CMS that is built for clans that doesnt look like the standard stuff.

Heres a few sites I made myself. Site 1 took longer to code but site 2 didnt take long at all.
Site1
Site2

Learn a bit of PHP and you can get excatly what you want.

Jon how much would you charge for a site like this ?

This is my current forum Championship Fighters and I would much prefer something like that
 
I must be honest, I don't really have the time to start learning any languages so much, not enough in detail to produce a site like you've posted there.
