    CMS: Which one do you use and why?

    ModX CMS - http://www.modxcms.com In the past I skipped it over.. The job I'm working at has been using Etomite - which ModX is a branch of. Out of all the CMS's I've played with (I was even a developer that helped with the Thatware project - way dead now - basically was like PHP Nuke)...

    Breadboarding in Eagle CAD

    Ellis's first major case mod

    I've learned a lot from doing this mod... It didn't come out the way I planned.. but most of it did. I wanted a lot of blue lights - but didn't want to much.. I felt I balanced it out so it wasn't blinding.
