News Script request

[fangs2000]

I am currently building a website and want to have a news script on the main page. Members (that I choose) can post news on the main page.

I want each post to be able to contain the users unique picture, their name, a subject, the news in full and possible the date. I can draw up a quick sceamatic if it helps.

Does anyone know a free script that does this. I would prefer if it was cgi since i have had experience with that.

Thanks

Also, how easy is it to write my own CGI scripts?

Do you want something like moveabletype.org ... or wordpress.org? Check those out, they might help you.

CGI scripts aren't that hard, I personally like PHP and am in the process of writing a simple news script. There are plenty of good tutorial sites and books around the internet. Just google it.
