The CPanel was a great creation if I saw and met the person who thought of it I will thank them so much. I will also give them 600,000.00. What about you?

I agree that cPanel is, indeed, a wonderful creation that allows us, the web-designers, to have the chance that we have to create what we create.

Umm... I'm not hosted yet because I'm going to make a website about a game I'm going to write, so I don't know what the CPanel is. Can someone give a brief explanation?

cpanel is beautiful.. but 600,000 for it.. c'mon... its just a bunch of maintenance tools put together,,, beautifual but not 600000..

Basically CPanel provides a bunch of tools to manage your site:

Email Tools:
- Email Forwarding ...
...
..
.
Site Management Tools:
- FileManager
- Subdomain Manager
- MySQL, Postgres
....
..
..
Web Logs:
Site Statics...

Preinstalled Scritps:
Photo Content Manager -> eg. Gallery
Counters
Blogs

To sum up a lot of good stuff that can safe you a lot of time. Just get hosted and give it a try.

Having cPanel is a convient feature for us web editors, or site admins.

It has alloweed me to conviently host my website, and forums (courtesy of Trap17) with little to no needing for me to go into cPanel.

The feature that I like the most about cPanel are, the Fantastico, because it gives you a veriety of options and addons for your hosting. How the email system is setup, it gives you WebMail access, which is very convienent, and it has a database editor, phpMyAdmin, which I also enjoy using.

To the folks who created cPanel, you did a great creation! Keep up the superb job
