Well if you're up to getting your hands dirty... and you just want something simple. I recomend The mini CMS for CPG mod.http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=3141.msg38458#msg38458

You can set it up to display text (news) on the main page (or any other page you specify) and it's real easy to use.

yes, i did check that, but I got the idea, every time I have a new news article, I need to manually link it on the mainpage to the news article page

I was hoping for somehting more dynamic :)

Well basically if you do the complete mod (which is posted across several boards). All that is required is to edit the news file on the main page... I can setup an example of the CMS if you're interested. All it takes is to edit that one file everytime you add/remove/edit news... now if you're looking to have something like a ticker tape to display random news from other sites, or from just a file that you upload randomly look into adding the php into the anycontent.php file...
