I wasn't aware of this. Every site I've seen that I notice is using droople 
says it at the bottom. :)
It's worth taking a look at, when I get done playing with some stuff currently 
on the work bench.

  Hey Tyler,


  The key to Drupal is that it handles many of the back end functions and 
allows you to focus on content and style.  Most people's web-sites look like 
Drupal sites because they don't bother to restyle the site.


  Most people have no idea what they are looking at once a site has been 
re-themed.

    why?
    You still see that your managing your site with droople, and it doesn't 
look professional at all. Especially if people can see that you designed this 
big professional website with something that easy.

      Depending one what you're doing I'd recommend not coding the core 
functionality of the site yourself, but instead using a content management 
system like Drupal.

        it really depends on what your using. Frames are still in use, though I 
personally recommend just including your menu via:
        <?php include "menu.php"; ?>
        Then you edit menu.php (which can just be html), and the menu changes 
everywhere.

          Hello guys, I'm hoping that someone who is up to date in the web 
sites trend can answer. Are  frames still being used, or have they been 
replaced by something else? I ask because this site I'm building has a fancy 
navigation menu which is to remain on the top of the site while the body 
changes, I know back when I worked at Nasa we would all say "o of course use 
frames" which is fine for inside apps and stuff, but this is more of a 
comercial web site... Any info appreciated. Or if there's a more eligant/modern 
way of applying the navigation menu and changing content.

          Thanks, D!J!X!
