Hi Drupal News forum,
Just announcing the launch of 2 new Drupal sites:
http://www.webel.com.au
http://rattanawan.webel.com.au (multi-site off same code-base)
May I extend my thanks to the Drupal core team and to all module developers, and thank all issue, forum, and book contributors who have so kindly helped me develop these sites over the last couple of months (I officially started my migration to Drupal around mid Nov last year). This is clearly one of the best, most active, and helpful development communities I have ever experienced.
May I also remark that - if done properly - developing a decent Drupal site with proper module assessment, styling, and content, clearly takes time (not days or even hours as some people seem to have claimed online elsewhere and in certain outsourcing job markets, which does no justice to the more sincere efforts of other IT professionals offering Drupal services).
Thanks however to Drupal's multi-site facility it is however certainly true that one can leverage the initial time investment nicely, although that too takes some time of done properly. Of course Webel now offers Drupal services after this fashion:
