After a week off Im back. The first stage has been handed in with the project scope etc.... now to the site!

I am still tossing up between joomla and wordpress better make my mind up.... I have a template that I already like and it should only need some minor modifications to make a matching e-store (famous last words). So now Im working on the design (lo-fi) and logo then it will be off to making the site...

So far Im up to completing the WBS and GANNT chart for tyhe project plan and then Im finished the first assesment component.

I have not had a chance to try the WPOSC (wordpress oscommerce) template yet but as I already know, I can use joomla and virtumart seemlessly or just do the joomla and oscommerce route and modify the CSS files to look the same.

After spending 3 days trying to get my head around joomla and oscommerce the other weekend I did some research about intergrating oscommerce into a wordpress cms. Yesterday I found a site that offered this intergration package so I have started trying it out.
With this package I have found that it uses a modified version of oscommerce that will intergrate with your wordpress layout, not as easy as it sounds... The install was not to hard, just the same as an oscommerce install, but getting the package to use the wordpress theme is a nightmare! It requires you to completely modify the theme for the package, not very seamless...
I will give it a go but if it takes too long I will just stick with modifying the standard oscommerce layout or using joomla and virtumart.
More research.....
