CushyCMS Alternative

I honestly have never used CushyCMS but checked it out as a result of Pelsars decision to use it. Just from my brief overlook of it I would say ....again textpattern.
Textpattern uses a similar method of injecting the CMS into ones HTML via tag based snippets. Very easy to use.
It also comes highly recommended by the Jon Hicks (the firefox logo guy

)Surreal CMS
Aperture, check out Surreal CMS. It's similar to Cushy (just as easy). Also remotely hosted, but definitely worth a look.

looks like cushycms
it has a $25/month..i think cushy is $28 for the pro version
it seems to follow the same concept as cushycms

CMS from Scratch is a simple CMS, but requires slightly more effort in setting up. If you can design and build a website to start with, you should handle this though.
Try a whole bunch of 'em out for yourself at the absolutely wonderful OpenSourceCMS site. Demos with admin CP access and ratings included so you can actually try and see how they compare.

find anything?
i stopped using the "pro" version of cushy and now just use the free version. (budget cuts) To use style sheets i converted mine to H1, H2, H3, etc.
the biggest problem i have is my xml news ticker...the client(s) can't change them.
find anything about the "hosting" ourselves concept?

You have mentioned this one before. I really want to play around with this. It seems like it would be good for smaller sites that really don't need a database. It is on my list...
Ah, yes! I've also written a small review on my blog (which I really must write something new on soon... lol).
I will say however that support has dwindled a bit recently and the latest version is a bit buggy, so I would recommend using 1.2.1 rather than the 1.9+ versions. Just my opinion though
The support forum lists a load of fixes for the newest one, but its a bit of effort to be honest.Let us know how you get on - or comment on my blog if you like... no one else seems to

Thanks man. I'll keep you posted. To be honest, I am not sure when I will get around to playing with it. It has been on my mind though, ever since I read one of your previous posts about it. Haha I'll be sure to comment on your blog, but I can't promise I'll say anything astounding. I am getting ready to launch my own blog probably in a couple of days. I am expecting a whole lot of not commenting to be going on on my blog as well
Jim, I'll be checking this site out as well. Thanks for the tip!
