Hey, that's very useful for me, as I work at High Medical School, and webmastering is one of my duties here. Not the fastest site I've seen, but well developed structurally. Keep it up. I think some different components are needed for this purpose, but we cannot wait for datahell and eliasan to do everthing for us. ;)

Thank's a lot :D
I checked your portfolio but didn't found Your High Medical School. Maybe you cen send me a link - i would like see your site.
About which components are you speaking?
Thank's again.

Hi mmarch,
Thank you for your interest. But, unfortunatly, I just registered their domain (vmsmmilankovic.edu.yu), but still I have nothing to start with... My ambition is to implement even e-learning system trough Elxis. As for components... I am recieving a lot of requests on my elxis-srbija community site, for making elxis compatible components such as Alberghi, MisterEstate, and lots of other relational DB components wich could be used for many purposes. My opinion is that Elxis users should organize much better and create or modify more joomla components, as most of elxis users come from joomla community.
Once again,
Thanks for inspiring site. :D

mmarch,
Take a look at my under-development website for a English Language School.
e-nglish.eu
Now about a suggestion, one and the most important to start.
"Keep your website clean, fast and with out not important information"

One of the best uses of wrapper I've ever seen!!! Great work. Optimization is very well, too. I always thought those JSCook menus are too demanding but I was wrong, obviously. It doesn't remind me much of school site visually, though.

Ivan Trebješanin, thank you for your kind words.
I would like to remind you, the website is still under development, and owned by an English Language School (EFL) located in Greece.

Yes very well Sirigo. I liked design and usuable of site. All is very very simple and usuable.
You know between me and you is ONE huge diference - i don't anderstood anything in PHP, webdesign and in software what use a web developers. My knowledge about that everything is simple like a hydrogen - H ornothing. For example - ihaveproblemwith soft which icen use for editing a pictures, logog etc. I am just user who understood one simple thing - if somebody use a elxis or samething else, than i can use it also, but my sites never be like a yours, i just searching net and looking for components, mambots, and moduliswhich i can use. In one topic Ivan Trebješanin advised me convert codefrom joomlato Elxis ;D ;D ;D yeof course ;D iwho know just one prog language - BASIC from 80 will convertsamething :D
Sirigo, i am just simple user without anyknowledges about php, css, art and everything what i need, i just like elxis, i would like make a next generation news portal, but for that i need auditory, that's because i started school site project, this i hope will be good place for starting advertise and involve people in news portal. I'm not a web guru or programmer or webdeveloper, i can use just work or ideas of real web guru, programmers and webmasters. That's because i put out this site and pleased your opinions.
Please give me advice and don't hestitate criticize my "work" i need your advice and opinions.
Regards

mmarch, hello again.
First of all thank you for your kind words about the website, but this is not the issue.
I publish my under-development project to give you an idea what you can create with Elxis.
I don't think any of us here can say he is a web guru, that he knows everything.
I would like you to know that I haven’t studied the web design or php, my college degree is for an Electronics Engineer for Automation's & Installations.
I have started dealing with the web & design as a hobby about 9 years ago and now I run my own advertising company, and till now I haven’t read any relevant books and I haven’t been taught anything relevant.
So don’t get disappointed with yourself if you can’t create something in the way you want. Experience comes with time.
Now about the website I created it ONLY with Elxis and really few components (letterman, joomradio, bookmark & final statistic).
My view for a School website is:
1. to give accessibility for all the ages, kids and parents.
2. be minimalistic.
3. offer useful content.
4. not create outstanding things which sometimes are heavy for low internet connections.
5. avoid using components, modules, mambots that are not useful.
6. and finally create the website with always in your mind that this website must advertise your school on its own.
About your website I could say many things, but I would rather stress my 6ht point, that "You must have always in mind that the final website must be an advertisement in itself".
