Right now I hae a website / blog using WordPress. Please note that I bought a hosting. http://www.fablefox.com Anyway, I think it's time to move on from blog to simple cms, as I want to automate ads, and things like that. I want my site to look like this: http://www.phpbb2.de/ Does that site use phpBB for cms or what? I'm still new at CMS, and I use autoinstall for my wordpress. My site doesn't need bell and whistles, just it look like phpbb2.de, and has my current banner (which I can redisgn to fit the template). On the topic, does anyone know of a very simple cms (content management system) that is easy to set up and learn, and improve on.

and as I google, I need opinion on Drupal.

and as I google, I need opinion on PHP-Nuke.

If I have to choose, which should I pick?

And does the phpbb2 site that i show is using any of these?

some people are turning me away from PHP nuke, saying it's hard. (please note that i'm a hobbisyist game programmer, given enough info i'll be able to handle the problem)

and it seems that php nuke look almost exaclt the site i want to mimic phpbb2?

should i use php nuke?

Stay far, far away from PHP-Nuke and anything derived from it (PostNuke, Dragonfly, XOOPS, etcetera). The codebase is horrible and full of security flaws.

Joomla is very easy to extend, theme, and use. Haven't used Drupal but compared to Nuke Joomla is very nice.
uh, even the web moderator ask me to stay away - wow. Nuke is that scary :-)

need to learn Joomla even more then :-)
