Radiant is not really designed to power community driven websites like 
these. To be honest you are probably better off writing a completely 
custom solution in Rails, or cobbling something together in PHP based on 
existing systems which are great (like G2).

Radiant is designed more for personal Web sites or small business 
brochure-like sites. It manages content really well, but it's not 
designed for public sites with integrated photo galleries and forums.

It's possible that you could integrate something like Radiant with 
Rforum (http://rforum.andreas-s.net/trac/) and Gullery 
(http://nubyonrails.com/pages/gullery) or Tableau 
(http://creativi.st/gallery), but honestly it will probably be a lot of 
work as these are designed more for personal use than anything else.
