That depends. I am still working on my picture and video viewer and archiving 
system. Of course I could have just downloaded one. The goal is to learn 
something more than just click a link. I am convinced that my system isn't 
winning any awards and it doesn't outperform its competition (although jamming 
800 pictures into the system in 5 minutes in one go is sweet), but that wasn't 
the point.
So maybe a simple CMS could have a few tables and as input front-end the 
FCKEditor and then some code that generates output. But I don't know what the 
intentions are of the original poster. It sounded more like "I need a CMS, go 
and program one for me, I'm waiting."
