I am very new to Drupal and I was wondering if someone could steer me in the right direction. The past week or so I have been cramming in tutorials and I have been learning a lot. I have been trying to figure out how to create a community-based site using drupal. I really like website www.Godtube.com so I thought I might try to use a similar concept.
The site would be a site for gamers. It would consist of player profiles and groups/clan profiles. I am not wanting anything crazy, just somthing simple like the "Ministries" layout at Godtube. After registering and receiving a player profile, player profiles would go right to the "free agent" page. From there, players would have the option to create a clan profile or join an already existing clan profile. I am wanting to have each new user profile attach itself as a thumbnail pic to a page...and when they join a group, they would move to that group's page. I know this has to be possible with drupal, but I just can't figure out how to set it up. I have been racking my brain and can't figure it out so I thought I would try to post.
I was guided towards the organic groups but I am still having trouble. I would really like to incorporate the MySite features for the profiles if possible. The main thing I need to learn at this point is how to get the profiles to post to the specified pages as they are created. I would really appreciate someone's help and advice.
