i am a newbe and trying to setup two blogs at the same drupal plattform
one single blog where multiple users can post videos only
and one single blog where the same multiple users can post text, links, images with thumbnails etc.
so. each blog needs an individual input form

first i thought i could solve this with categories (taxonomy-module)
but i still have the problem with the individual input forms

any ideas how to solve this ?

thanks in advance for any hints

investigate the CCK.module which will allow you to create a new content type for one or both of the content types you seek.

thank you very much for the hint
now i created two different content-types for video and standard blog content
but their entries are mixed on the startpage
how can i assign/sort them to the different menu-points (video, blog) ?
via categories ?
can i archive them seperatly ?
which modules would you recommend for videos and images ?

sorry for all these newbie questions

thanx

set up a taxonomy for each content type. see: http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/taxonomy for explaination on doing so, which should provoke an idea or three.

with regards to images and videos, you can also use CCK.module with the mediafield addon and the imagefield addon, or test out the other image and video modules on a test site to better understand what each one offers.
