Joomla

Anyone have experience with Joomla? What can you do with it? Is it hard to use?

It's a great CMS script ... I've dabbled w/ it a little bit ... it's modules and clean design make it very appealing ... they are presently lacking in integrating fully w/ forum boards like Vbullentin ... although a bridge hack is available.

It is open source and is great. You login in once on Joomla and it logs you on to VB also.

I looked at it for a front end here.

what about for church websites? I know there is a lot of modules for it...as far as content management what can it do for a regular website and one that you might have RSS feeds, updated content...can it work like PHP with a data base to make the website more interactive etc etc? Or random images or server side scripting to detect screen sizes and spit out the right style sheets etc etc?
