Before you start

That is the question....

I have created a site which currently uses numerous modules. It is on a hosted server and includes the video module and ffmpeg (which may tax the server dring conversion; the weblinks, cck, image, audio, spam span, google/youtube embed modules, etc and some blocks which query the databas to show conditional internal linking and conditional content (based upon node being viewed).

I also want to add functionality to be able to:
* host and track public case studies of product use scenarios (includes linking up manufacturers with users interested in performing a certain case study and vice-versa).
* host a software development area for people to both suggest new sofware features, evaluate, and generally develop both open source software (probably Not hosting product software itself however because I can't figure out how to use a CVS system to host product releases) and (everything but develop) private software.
* If I can do it, to host a product .arletplace for spftware and hardwae manufacturers that would like a low ovehead method to distribute their products.

I want to keep the case studies on the main site with the weblinks, product reviews, and contests (and contest entries).

I found a module named "[url=http://drupal.org/project/resizer]User Picture Resizer[/url]" but it's support thread is closed. I also don't have an installation of drupal where I can install modules. So I got a couple of questions.. maybe someone out there have tried the module and know this?

Is this module working?
Do I need to know php to install it?
When installed and working, how do I resize an uploaded picture. It is easy? A screenshot would be great..

hello,

I want to enable a feature on my small social netwrking site that would enable friends to share links that they find on internet very easily.

I have noticed that www.teamsugar.com -- the social networking site that runs on drupal has this kind of feature. You can see the brief video here http://geeksugar.com/83306

I hope you all understand my english
Lets see...
I'v 6 nodes on content page and display its on frontpage descending by date then number 7th till 12th display on sidebar (title only), when new node posted.. node number 6th goes to left sidebar, node number 12th not on the sidebar anymore..just flow.

I already make PHP snippet to display node title on sidebar but I dont know how to sort from last 7th till last 12th, also how to display the date and time with poster like "Thu, 09/20/2007 - 05:37 — admin"

Thank's in advance

I'm required to build a site that has the following restrictions, should I be using drupal and if so can you make some pointers on how hard each may be to accomplish?

1) the home page and a few other information pages have a different layout than the rest of the site.

2) Users who aren't logged in can only get to the home page and a few other general pages, after logging in, they are taken to a different section of the site primarily designed for document distribution (PDF User manuals)

I am looking into a few CMS solutions for a new website project I am working on. My client is using CRM software called iMIS which contains all of their customer records etc. iMIS provides an API (which uses a COM interface) which enables developers to interact with it.

Has anyone had any experience with interfacing between Drupal and iMIS??
