Well, its been a crazy first couple of weeks, getting set up with new progams and systems have definitly been more demanding then was expected.
I have succesfully installed Joomla! to my portable HDD in order to have a testing server and just get more familar with how this is set up. I have also installed PHP and MySQL to these servers.
To get more familar with Joomla! I have also installed it to a previous site I made, so that I can use that as a platform to learn more about it.
Thanks to Joomla! for dummies, which has litterally saved me in terms of learning how to use Joomla!
Things I've learned:
How to post an Article
How to organise Articles into Sections and Catagories
How to create Sections and Catagories and their relationships
How to Build Menus
How to update the Homepage
How to update the Logo for the page
Enabeling and Disabling various components
Editing Components
Building Polls
and more.

Project Schedual
Currently I am running a little behind on my Project Schedual, some of this is due to sickness, but preliminary designs have been created and are being coded and made into a joomla template...
basic layout, already programmed in HTML/CSS - needs to be transferred to work with Joomla!
As of April 1st, we are almost on schedual, Design Mock Ups have been completed (see above)
Story boards are being worked out and work has commenced on building the prototype and having it intergrated with Joomla!
