Decided to halt production on my websites (http://www.loosescrew.ca and http://www.chimpire.com/) to fix a few fundamental issues:

1) I don't have a content manager. I want to get into article writing... so implementing an article format would mean manually converting all my posts to html and remembering what to code and what not to code. If it gets popular I might want multiple contributors and also WYSIWYG would be nice :)

Looking like Drupal will solve that issue along with adding some extra stuff like in the "back of the box" features list for Chimpire -- have a "do you like this? Yes or No" vote and stuff.

2) Chimpire was the head of LooseScrew... this would be like having Bungie being located at http://www.halo.com/bungie/ -- just wouldn't make sense. So I'm swapping them around.

3) The layout was pretty hacked together. It was designed to load fast, not be pretty -- but I guess might as well make it pretty.

Anyway... working on the layout in illustrator -- any comments?
