Well I have completed a good chunk of my current CMS, I plan on releasing some information on that as soon as the contest ends for the design. I was also product manager of vGportal, a very nice gaming CMS and did some work on that CMS (http://www.vgportal.com/scripts/).

http://www.advanced-gamer.net <-- customized that site like crazy, most of the sites features were re-done by me.

I have numerous other scripts on my local server such as news scripts, membership scripts, database classes, etc...

I have been working with PHP & mySQL for about 4 years now (in May). So I have plenty of experience with it, I am in the process of actually becoming a Zend Certified Engineer .
