photo sharing website, copy my old one, continue with laravel or modify a brand new script. Re- -- 2

I need a very light and responsive version of my website: it's an instagram klone with user created categories like pinterest. You have to use my existing mysql db because the ios app is also using it. My site was built on abandoned custom framework built on top of Yii v1. it has too many errors, the custom framework prevents Yii to be upgraded. There is NO need for upload (except for avatar) or registration, because user register and upload from iPhone. Only LOGIN ---- login allow users can add/delete comments, add/delete albums, like/unlike follow/unfollow, rearrange album, delete/edit post, and edit user profile/avatar, report violation, select album cover. Admins can do everything but also see admin panel to delete or ban users, send message, see modules, add main categories, delete user album. PAGES: (these pages use the same base template) To see the pages download the ATTACHMENT OR do this <=============== modify this script [login to view URL] it has the same features, pages function like my website except MISSING: grid layout, main categories, user album, select album cover, slideshow and of course template. Suggestion: build on top of current layout because current layout is responsive (for mobile). Remove hide features like user registration and user upload. OR do this <=============== This is a repost, I have a laravel version of my site that's 40% finished. Important ===== > Popularity rule or condition. <=============== Homepage show popular posts, not newest posts. so the it needs a simple popularity rule: popular posts based on views, comments, and likes are move up in rank in homepage. But to give newer posts a chance, to show in homepage. We set a time limit for popular posts. we set timer to start countdown from post date/time. after X time, popular post go down in rank. also: nginx rewrite, read/write spit mysql ============================================== When You place a bid. Please tell me which one you will do. start from scratch (what framework you will use) ---- OR ---- edit the phpmars script or continue with laravel. Thanks
