It looks a lot like Brian Gardner's Wordpress themes. It is cool that the media side can play with Slideshowpro. I used that for a couple of my sites. Its a very valuable asset.

We requested our archives from College Publisher and they were very accommodating. Our webmaster, Brian Schlansky, converted them from the tables we received to a MySQL database for WordPress. We plan to write more extensively on the process on my blog at <a href="http://www.greglinch.com" rel="nofollow">www.greglinch.com</a> in the coming weeks. Thanks, Sam.

For anyone looking to get out of the CP4/CP5 world, any tips on porting over archives currently in CP? Any idea whether the Hurricane copied those over manually or whether they were able to get a database file from CMN? Impressive site.

We really appreciate the critique. To clarify a couple things: - We have several templates for the homepage and the standard layout will have a large image that spans the left and center column for the main story. - Regarding videos embedded at the bottom of stories: Those were imported from the old site. All videos that are posted in the future will be at the top and photos will be right-aligned. Thanks again! Thanks, Bryan! We really appreciate the critique. To clarify a couple things:
