Another 'How do I' question. I've been playing around for a few days now with Drupal, and have been able to set up http://drupal.eyos.nl/ Most of it works just fine, but I'm still figuring out the categories part, and how I can show a list of the (say) 5 or 10 most recent Stories. I tried the articles module, but this doesn't seem to work exactely as I need (or does it?). Do I need to put Stories into categories, even though there is only one type of story? How can I show the stories-overview from within another page (not the frontpage)? Any thoughts?

http://drupal.eyos.nl/?q=node should do it (if you have stories). I recommend that you enable clean URLs on your site - then the link would be http://drupal.eyos.nl/node
I like the design - nice and clean :)

Thanks for the reply, Zen. Is there a way to influence the page that you get with the q=node query string? How do I change the number of stories that are displayed here? Can I show a 'quicklist' with recent stories on other pages as well? I've got the feeling that I'm missing something here..
q=node mimics what's on the
q=node mimics what's on the front page. Besides that the only thing I can think of is to use the taxonomy module and create categories (vocabularies and terms). Using the taxonomy menu module will list the categories in the menu block. Clicking on a category will result in a page with recent results from the category. Clicking the top most category will list recent results from all subcategories, which might be what you want..

Right, but..
Ok, I think I understand it a bit better know, but still wondering if it's possible to influence the style of the /node page? For example, I would like to give that page a seperate title (in blue), and the titles of the results (the most recent Stories) in orange. How would I do that? It's not in the default PHPTemplate files, is it?
