I need a CMS solution (Drupal or any other with modules) for a news site (not too complicated but not a simple blog either). The theme must be a grid layout that looks similar to [login to view URL] If you have a better style for a news website with different categories on the main page, some articles with pics, tag cloud, user login form..then please suggest. The best news website theme wins. The special features needed are: 1. Ability to post an RSS item as an article/story from the admin section. (so admin runs the cron job, sees the rss items, and selects which ones to add as story or edit then post to front page) 2. Absolute linking to an external link. Ex: If I post an abstract of an article from [login to view URL] then I want to be able to make the title link to go directly to [login to view URL] 3. tags for every article and a tag cloud (categories of tags is even better) [login to view URL] sections of news **** IF YOU CAN DO ONLY SOME OF THE REQUIREMENTS, FEEL FREE TO BID AS WELL ****
