Membership Site Woes- Drupal or Joomla
I've been lurking here for quite a while (about a year before joining) and have decided to focus my efforts on a membership website. I've been reading as much as I can into both Joomla and Drupal, but I can't decide which platform to go with. From what I understand, Joomla will be better from an aesthetic standpoint but Drupal has more robust architechture.
The issue is, I not only need to support a forum, member profiles/blogs, multiple levels of subscription, affiliate services, and product submission and sales, but I'd like to make it as 'web 2.0'-friendly as possible. (As in, I'd like it to be convenient and pretty). I think there's extensions for both services to do these things, but I'm mostly concerned with integration.
I have some experience with web development and have a couple sites, but nothing too intensive. Drupal's apparently a little more elitest-oriented; I could take the time to learn what I would need to if this were a problem but I'd prefer not to if possible. Time is money, after all.
So, I pose a question: Which CMS would likely be best for my situation?
