"Wherever you go there's always a newbie or the newbie is you"
Anyway. I installed Drupal a year ago and gave up. This time just a little noodling round in 6.12 and it looks like a real website. Not the one I wanna make, lol, but a real site. I'm psyched!

Just a few of questions:

1) Can I make multiple sites off a single install?
2) Is the anything that I actually click to go 'into' Drupal? I'm used to things with little icons that tell me where to go. I have my test site bookmarked just in case but I'm afraid to go to bed for fear I'll lose it all.
3) Why is the word Drupal being underlined for spell check as I'm writing this here...on this site? Is that Google Chrome at work?

Ok, That's it, my newbie post. Any other stupid stuff from me can viewed as seasoned ignorance from here on in.

1) yes drupal calls them multisites and there is a plethora of forum posts and tutorials that can be googled that explain how to do this in detail
2) drupal admin is always located at yoursite.com/admin or yoursite.com/?q=admin you may want to investigate the rootcandy theme which is an administration theme for the admin panel which is simiar to what you are likely used to in a CMS backend.
3) Drupal is not in a dictionary (yet) and google chromes spellcheck is picking it up as does firefoxes as a misspelled word.
