I was born under a wanderin' star -- and now I build websites.

Starting from a solid foundation is key. The Blueprint documentation walks through everything from installation to customisation. Even Rotten could follow it. Probably.

Thanks for the confidence. But fine -- I'll look at it. If it's as straightforward as you claim, maybe I'll give it a proper try. No promises. I've been disappointed before.

That's as close to the spirit as you've ever come. The tools are there. The templates are there. The only thing between you and a working website is the decision to start. And maybe closing your twenty open div tags first.

Well said, partner. The frontier's moved from the wilderness to the web, but the principle hasn't changed -- stake your claim, build something solid, and keep your eyes open. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got a Joomla site to build.
