Hey Hock, thanks for the compliment 
Actually I don't use a CMS on that site right now. It's always been coded by hand and put together with a number of PHP includes (for convenient access to various parts).
I would probably like to move it to a CMS in the future, but I have some really really good ranks for a lot of my pages in Google, and a lot of backlinks, and am playing it extra safe and not changing anything unless/until I'm certain it won't break what already works I just took an initial step recently by recoding the site fully with xhtml/css and dumped the tables (and cleaned up some design aspects while I was at it)... after that I've been watching my search engine positions to make sure I didn't break anything.
I've installed and tried out most of the popular CMS's, but haven't really settled on one that I completely like and would trust. I made a site for my church with Joomla, partly to test it out for myself -- www.firstfamilychurch.net -- one thing I discovered through that was it was challenging (especially when using a lot of user made modules/components) to keep the code clean and compliant (this site isn't standards compliant since I was just beginning to learn about that at the time). I tried enabling SEO friendly URLs on it, but it kept breaking some custom non-joomla-related parts of the site (gonna give it another go so and figure it out). Still more to research before I dive in my own sites

Hey man, very cool! Good to see you |
has made a huge impact on me, and I can't wait to find out all the great things I'm sure I'll learn here from you guys. It's also my biggest passion in life to help and teach other people, so hopefully I can lend a hand as well. This place and the people here have already inspired me more than any other forum I've been part of in many years
