Hello,

http://schryvergunsale.com is the website which we are now trying to get running on a CMS/Blog engine of one sort or another. It has various different styles of web pages, such as these:

• http://schryvergunsales.com/Bushmaster.htm
• http://schryvergunsales.com/Nightforce%20Optics.htm

There seems to be an immense number of pages (~450) and images (~12000) on the site already.  One of the common "posts" he creates to this site is dropping in a page with a new gun or scope for sale with specs and price and such. He also has several "Gallery" pages.

My questions are: Would you Umbraco experts cringe and run away at the prospect of converting a site this huge and diverse, with such a heavy dependence on thousands of images scattered across pages? Or is this the type of thing Umbraco could handle, if I understood the "basics" of Umbraco as a developer. Also, since I am an ASP.NET professional, but really no experience with Umbraco (other than setting it up now to sniff around), would you think this too big a project to develop and learn Umbraco at the same time?

PS - My first impression of Umbraco is that is will be cumbersome and slow to have posts/pages with so many images on it. Would be cool if it had a Flash upload interface like Uploadify to handle multiple image uploads, but then most CMS/Blog engines seem to be missing this (vital, IMHO) feature. Or am I missing the point, and integrating something like Uploadify into Umbraco would be easy and not require changes to Core functionality?
