Found this tutorial on the net after some Googling.

Just starting it now and it looks like what I've been needing for my band's badly needed website refresh I've been chugging away. Anyway here's the tute. Just thought I'd let everyone know bout it if they're looking at using Drupal which I'd tried before but couldn't really get my head around properly.

Oooer, I wonder how hard it'd be to convert PHPNuke content to it. Sick of PHPfail.

I used nuke once, never went back.

I have installed drupal and messed around with it, looks pretty solid.

Tut looks good, cheers

Tute looks good until you realise its made for Drupal 5.x and I have Drupal 6 all set up :-(

You know what baffles my mind?

HTML/CSS is a layout engine right? So who in their crazed minds decided no-one wants to center elements vertically within other elements?!

WHY IS IT SO HARD TO VERTICALLY CENTER THINGS?!@?!?!?!?!?@/22//2/2/2/2

</rage>

Google is full of people wanting to vertically center things, yet the standards board (or whoever) left this glaring omission out of CSS and decided everyone should have to hack CSS into submission before it would vertically center content within a div.

WHY ‾\(0_0)/‾

So it turns out Chrome is ignoring my line-height attribute >_<
