No. I want to be able to use my own content that I make. For example, if I add an article with a photo then it will be added to a section of the web site and automatically update which articles are shown by category and archive older ones.
I essentially have a site that I want, sort of a frankensite that I put together with a mix of codes that I've found, but it's not all 100 percent automated; see http://www.kylejanek.com .
There are many ways that I want to customize the code that I use but I only know how to put together snippets of code - not actually write it. I think starting off from scratch would be better if there was an open-source site like cnn.com, msnbc.com, foxnews.com, nytimes.com, etc...
