OK - I have decided to have a go at building my own website based on Gallery2 and integrating it into either Joomla or WordPress. I have some basic html skills but have been researching the way both these CMS systems and G2 work.
I'd appreciate some feedback from people experienced intergrating G2 with either WP or Joomla and the pros and cons of each.
Also should I start working on the way I want G2 to look/function first or the way I want to set up Joomla or WP and its look and feel? Or is it best to work on complimentary themes for both at the same time?

Joomla is a CMS / portal while WP is a blog.
There are sure some WP plugins adding more functionality, but if you want to do more than blogging, joomla is the better, more robust and flexible choice.
If you want to do mainly blogging, WP is the obvious choice.
Both should integrate pretty well into G2.
