Hi i'm a Ez newbie,

I have to create a site for a Client , the design is done with a Flash header with main menu include, a vertical sub-menu, the content is mostly text + images, there is a special section who needs to be connected to another database.

Do anyone recommended to use the Website Interface or to start from scratch ?

Welcome to the community!

If you're a newbie, I would recommend a combination of both. Analyse and learn from the existing templates to build your own. If you only stick with website interface, you will not learn that quickly/much. If you try to do all on your own, it might be too difficult and too many risky mistakes can be made. That's how I see it.

Good luck!

Hi jo,

another suggestion:

You can use the layout-module to create a xml that contains the elements you need for having a dynamic menu included in the flash.

Tell if you need advice on how.

And as Piotrek said: Welcome!

i have a question about the Website Interface.
Actually i don't need the top menu and some links like tag clouds or the logo, so what's you advice change the class Template Look or just modify stylesheets ?
