Before you start

Thanks.

Please forgive me if this is posted somewhere else.

I want to adjust the length of my teasers but for some reason I am not seeing the "Post Settings" option under content management. Please advise. Thank you.

Hi all,

I recently discovered Drupal and am pretty enamored. But before I dive in and start learning how to do all my future websites in Drupal, I have two questions:

-Upgrading. Since new versions are always coming out, can I create a site that I won't support? In other words, if I create a site in a couple weeks with Drupal 5, will I need to come back in 6 months or a year and upgrade it?

can you help me about administer(in drupal). I dont litle know it.

I am looking to make a site centered around a web game with a flash interface, but I would like the different aspects and levels to have their own pages with Flash embedded in it.

Features would include:

• Users would be able to create maps in the map editor, they would appear in their profile, maps could then be grouped together into a series. Maps could also be commented on and rated.
• Highscores for maps
• Searchable maps, perhaps tagged with reserved tags
• Users can create a custom character
• Users can earn achievements

Possible future features...

• Users can buy points with cash for in-game points
• Shop to spend those points
• Monthly league system based on user scores
• Maybe tournament features
• Shared accounts across multple games, whether it would be best to have them on seperate sites or within the same one
