HELP WANTED—blog design, phpBB 3 forum, graphics and banners

1) New blog

Filed my perjury complaint against attorney Kimmel today and don’t I WISH I could easily create a new blog just for him.  There is SO much here, it’s just TOO much.  I’d like to have a separate blog for EACH case and for each special project and special person, like the scum sucking lying lawyers. 

Currently readers get too much stuff they’re NOT interested in when they subscribe to updates here and I know that I’m not the only busy person.  Here should be only major updates on my litigation, credit and collection news and legislative issues.  Not everybody wants to read my daily email exchanges with the lawyers.

I’m aware that Expression Engine (this blog) now supports multiple blogs under one installation, but they are geared towards web developers and everything is so darn complicated.  A year ago I paid a guy $300 for some updates and he really screwed things up.

Recently I downloaded Movable Type because supposedly you can create new blogs based on the existing templates with one button.  That sounds great.  Installation was easy, but NOW what?

I just don’t have hundreds of hours to read manuals and post in support forums.  I did sign up for one year of their individual support, but can’t really expect them to tell me what to do when I don’t have time to READ their manual.

I’m looking for a similar 3 column design as here, with a BLOCK for links to the other blogs.  It would be very cool if that was a global block so that I add one new link and BINGO - it’s on all blogs.

Of course I want the recent entries and recent comments and on some blogs maybe Google ads.  Can’t do it here, but it’s unlikely that I’ll get lots of scummy lenders’ ads on a perjury blog.

2) phpBB3 forum for http://creditlegislation.org/

The existing forum is READ only, I can’t do anything else since the server upgrade last month.  And wowBB has too many problems and is missing so many features.

I recently installed phpBB 3, but got stuck at adding a custom header (logo), changing colors, etc.

I really want to contact candidates and legislators and update with my proposed FDCPA changes.

3) Graphics / banners

I hate promoting, but since I’m trying to get people to DO something, I really should have some code with graphics to link to my sites.  My artistic energies just don’t exist lately.  I even bought Banner Maker Pro 7, but always forgot how to use it by the time I get around to giving it another try.

It would be nice to have a 2-part header for new blogs.  One part to identify it as one of my sites, the other specific to the subject.

Cash - trade - ???

I’m obviously used to forums, blogs and templates, did almost everything myself these last 14 years.  Just don’t have TIME anymore to learn new stuff, but don’t usually need help with updates and admin.

HOWEVER, if there are people interested in changing legislation, I sure could use some help, but I won’t pay for it.  The buck stops just about there smile

Please post here or contact me if you’re interested.
