When I say simple, I mean simple for you guys and not me ;)

The idea behind this 'simple' website is to
1. display a list of user submitted quotes that are held in a database
2. users are allowed to rate these quotes and top 10 quotes are ordered on one side of the webpage
3. users can submit pictures and again these pictures can be rated.

Is there some sort of php script that can do all of this?

I'm clueless when it comes to php or asp programming.

Help me!

Grab a simple book on PHP programming with MySQL.

It is unlikely you will find a script already made for you that will do exactly what you ask.

Your only options are:

1. Hire someone experienced to make it for you.

2. As suggested above learn php & sql.

What you are talking about really isn't that tough to do if you pick up a PHP and MySQL programming book. It will cover the basics. The picture uploading part gets tricky, because of people who upload too large of images, wrong format, etc. You have to handle all those issues in your code. Though it's really not too tough to do. And I agree that you likely won't find any scripts to do exactly what you want, though you should be able to find plenty to work off of.

www.php.net/manual/en/

Comments in the offical PHP online manual from other programmers often have good examples on how to do things, especially with the file upload handling.
