Thanks SamC, i will have a look at your site now. It is impressive how much functionality is built into the core and i have only just scratched the surface.

Wow, i am blown away by all the nice and helpful replies on this thread. I spent last night reading the tutorials and it all makes a lot of sense, in fact to be honest it sounds amazing. It already feels like i have been stumbling around in the dark with using other CMS'es. I have got a local version on my lamp stack which i am playing around with and the logic behind everything makes a lot of sense already. I haven't been this excited about using new software in a long time. Thanks for all your replies and i would like to say what a friendly and welcoming community this is!

Thanks Robin S, you have assured me that PW will more than suit my needs. The site i am working on at the moment will be a content rich site so lots of pages and it sounds like PW will be easily up to the task. I am looking forward to having control over the whole process and not limited like i am at the moment.

Thanks for your reply ryanC, that sounds good. I know exactly what you mean regarding the pre-cooked modules etc. It can get frustrating and time consuming which is why the philosophies of processwire appeal to me. Ok, cool i will make the jump and start by reading lots of posts and documentation to become familiar with things. Thanks again

Hi Everyone Today i have been looking into using Processwire and i am impressed with what i have been reading about it. I create my own sites for fun and have been using Joomla for some years but i have decided to change CMS for quite a few reasons including the fact that i would like a lot more flexibilty from a CMS which is why Processwire has caught my attention. I am more a designer than developer at the moment and i can code in HTML, CSS and a little PHP. I would like to learn more about the dev side of things so am happy to invest the time in learning this CMS. My questions is: Do you think that it would be a reasonable idea to learn to use processwire for creating and running my own few sites or would it be overkill? Thanks for your time Fractalflux
