Hey Gang!

I just wanted to share my site with you folks, considering that many here were integral in the building of it thanks to their great advice, tips, and just plain know-how!

The site is http://www.horrorview.com, and it's a site I've run since 2002. Drupal has not only made it a much more functional and attractive site, but it's reignited my passion for running it, and made updating it a breeze!!

Once again, thanks to all who helped me along the way. I came into this project with zero PHP knowledge, rudimentary CSS skills, and absolutely no idea what a "drupal" was, but, in the three months it took me to build and port over all of the content from the ol' HTML version, I fell in love with this software, and learned a lot along the way. :)

Hope y'all like it!

Best!

Looks really good, though I personally am not a big fan of horror movies, the site itself looks really well done!

Well done on the site - great functionality and good layout. Can I ask what modules you used to get catalog and review functionality happening?

Nice one!

Thanks man! I appreciate the feedback :)

I created a custom review template in CCK (and mangled the hell out of my theme with some really sloppy CSS! LOL), and used Views (in glossary mode) to create the archive. I used the Fivestar module (made my own little custom skulls! Weee!) for the ratings, and Emfield/Lightbox for the video embeds.
