I've been doing site updates by hand... - GoFuckYourself.com

IT SUCKS ASS! I know there has to be a better way to add pictures to a table from one page to another (or just from scratch)... with a pre-set table width/config, etc... and just drop "x" amount of pics and text in (the text in the middle of the table... pics surrounding, and it be sorted out into the correct cells in the table (3 images on top, 1 on each side of text box, and 3-6 pics below, depending upon the number of images needed to be added for particular update... similar to building your own galleries but with text that can be linked and the "story" area for each set of pics for tour pages.

This may sound confusing to some, because I am no good at explaining what I need - some sort of coded CMS system or something that will allow me to create (tables) and generate code that I can copy/paste that can be placed into pages to create tour updates, etc.

I just think doing all of this by hand every week is a HUGE waste of time... and now that I have a few more sites to handle, I'd like to get good at doing it "quick".

Any suggestions or tools?

I already have a specific table designed I want to add pics/vids to for each update. Its not like I want to throw everything into something non-customizable and standard as hell.

Most tgp submission scripts will take the value you give it and place it there for you ... 100 % customizable... unless there is something I don't understand

"replace all" can be your friend if your images are set up in a standard
