Joomla! and Our Social Lubricant

So,
An update on what exactly I've been doing for the past couple of weeks.
I've been becoming more acquainted with Joomla!
The learning curve was steep at first, but once I got the hang of it, I don't know what I would do without it.
Its so fast to do everything, set it all up and change it to meet the specifications. Theres almost always a module out there that will do anything.

The test site that I've been working with is the beginnings of a project with another student and a group of her friends called Our Social Lubricant. Its currently live at j.arcc.cc, I'm temporarily hosting it on my subdomain because its easier and I can easily share it with the clients.
Currently there is very little actual content on the site, its mostly just odds and ends and placeholders, however the frameworks are in place to deal with content once its actually a part of the site.

I've been developing my skills with CSS mainly but also working out stuff to do with how CMS systems work.

At this point almost everything on the site works (except for a few minor details that I'll get to over the next couple of days.

Ill edit this post later with an itemised list of the features/modules that I've been playing around with on this site so far.
