Can I have 2 editable regions on a page?

Hi, hopefully I can explain this clearly. I would like to know if I can make a user not only add the content for a page using the standard Drupal form, but also choose which images should be seen in the banner of the web page. So in other words, there are 2 editable regions on the page, the main content of the page and the banner which only shows images (I would instruct users that the images would need to be a certain dimension). Can this be done... maybe even using CCK or some other module?

Thanks,

Drupal 6 on new site

Hey,

So what are you guys thoughts on a new site with Drupal 6? The site will likely take 2-3 months to develop. I see Alpha 1 is out for Drupal 7.

How hard is the upgrade going to be for 7? How long do you guys think before 7 is out? How long before most of the main plugins work and it is even useful or really possible to run a commercial site with Drupal 7?

Acquia Drupal or standard distribution

I am new to Drupal and am about to install Drupal on a WampServer installed on my computer. I am wondering what the advantages and disadvantages are to installing the Acquis Drupal distribution instead of the standard distribution available on Drupal.org.

Here's my situation:

I've read through the forum and still have questions

I've already done some investigation. For example, I was worried about keeping my disqus comments but did find the answer to that question.

Admittedly, these may be some "duh" questions, but I don't wanna get halfway in the project and discover it want work. So, here's the deal.

I have a blog on blogspot. What I like best about drupal is what I've seen on another sight, www.prometheus6.org. I like that each post has a teaser but also looks like it's own "mini" section. Blogger has lots of gadgets, I know, but not always the gadget I want.

So, here're my questions
- will I be able to keep the blogspot.com url?
- do blogger's available gadgets operate alongside drupal's modules (Drupal's modules are like blogger's gadgets, right?
- how easy is it to change the color scheme? Blogger has the "FONT and COLOR" section. Will I be able to use that section or does drupal have something similar?
- do springwidgets work with drupal?
- will I be able to easily edit the blog post template?

I guess I'm a bit "lazy." I wanna be able to do a lot of stuff without having to learn (too much) code. I just wanna find the gadget/widget/template that only needs me to rearrange elements or copy/paste website feeds, etc and so on. Blogger's okay, I just wanna be able to do more without my site looking a hot mess. I want my site to still look sophisticated.

Image displaying problem

Hi dear friends,
I'm having a problem regarding to the image displaying, in drupal.
If I want to write an article in the blog or in a page, than how should I display an image with this?
I've tried with Only local images are allowed. also, but it didn't worked.
Can any one of you please help me.
