Ah, thank you. I saw you could just get one for a cheaper price.

Re: New team 2472 site with Joomla interface and look

Get this, 99% of the websites you visit are made with a CMS. *Gasp*

Industry uses it. A custom coding solution is not only very inefficient but also not business oriented and is definitely VERY insecure against attacks in a production environment. There's a reason why CNN, Ubuntu, White House, Time, every news paper website, every university website, etc is made with a CMS.

But yeah. If what you do works for you, awesome!

Agreed. I like CMS because a lot of functionality is already made for you; you don't have to code it yourself. But like people have said, there are some difficulties with it. Our team is able to work with these and we saw it beneficial, so we went with it.

http://sites.google.com/site/team2472/
In fact, before we got our original site, which was HTML, we used Google Sites, which worked very well for us. The above link is our old, temporary site with Google Sites. It still has all the content on it, so if you want to see more about our team while we get our real site up and running, check that out. Granted, we had to live with the cumbersome URL (we had not bought a domain yet) and the visuals weren't what you could get with something more custom, but what it does give you is great. I highly recommend it to any new team or one that can't do anything like a real website (HTML etc). But it might be nice to get a domain so you have a handy URL. We use GoDaddy and can't really complain.
