  Old  Looking for a cms

Hey guys! Havent posted here in awhile, been busy with school. Anyway, I have just recently opened up a gaming website and me and my partner working on the project are sort of tired with our website that is lacking with a cms for upkeep. So with that matter I was wondering if you guys knew of any great cms's that we could check out, preferably free. Thanks.

why don't you consider using www.mamboserver.com it's one of the best open source cms and it is search engine friendly as well.
check http://mamboforge.net/ for more components, modules and functions.

Second vote for Mambo open source. It's free and fairly easy to customise.

I'd go with Mambo or Drupal. For a more blog style site, Wordpress or Plog.

Mambo is great if you're just beginning with CMS. But if you want a more powerful CMS, then I'd go with Typo3.

For blog style formatting, go with textpattern. Wordpress is a good choice too, but if you really want the power over the skinning of a blog, then textpattern is awesome.
