I did a lot of blundering around with the code and the Hemingway theme to get it working the way I wanted, with a blog, portfolio, playroom and photoblog etc. It's almost finished now, take a look at: www.holster.co.uk/home Any constructive feedback would be welcomed... ® I chose WordPress as a CMS for my graphic design portfolio site.

What I particularly like about <a href="http://www.1.com.my/" rel="nofollow">1.com.my</a> is the use of the excerpt section with a combination of a web site snapshot under Our Strength | Case Studies category. Subcategories are effectively used, due to a very well-thought navigation structure. And the front page, while we take for granted its simplicity, is actually cleanly yet attractively organized to show the different categories and post headers. I also like the fact that the site maintains the comments section, and the translator plugin at the bottom of the site I think is very smart. Here’s another practical and WP site turned CMS.
