I've been thru the mod forums here about a thousand times in the last few months searching for all kinds of things to spice up the main page (portal) of my website, and I've finally broken down and decided to just ask...

I would like to have some rotating content on our cmps main page. One page load it might show a small article about one of our gaming walkthru's, next time a small article about the forum RPG, and so on. Were using vBa CMPS and since it can use a template page, im pretty sure almost anything would work in there...

On another note, ive posted a "review my site" thread in the community reviews section. If anyone has any suggestions on how to make our front page a little nicer, please say something =)

Enjoy.

Actually, this one (version 2) is better..

Besides the Tabbed Content, I also have a content rotator system that I am working on for another client. The concept is that it displays content based on the day of the week and time of day, but it can also be simply modified to rotate based on either an AJAX refresh (ie, the content will auto rotate after so many seconds or minutes without a total page refresh) or by a manual page refresh.

Sounds like either system would work for you and both bring a unique look to vBadvanced.
