i am about to start a project with these features, will WP able to support all these
1. posting images (single/multipe) like news image gallery (http://www.apimages.com/Search.aspx?st=shwc&xslt=scssr&id=504312)
2. multiple language of single post (eg main news in english, other language french) how to do that? is it possible?
3. generate xml of posted news if yes how?
1. Yes. You can either use the built-in gallery shortcode, or you can get fancy and install a gallery plugin. I personally like NextGEN Gallery, but there are a lot of options available.

2. Yes, again the the use of a plugin. There are several to choose from.

3. Yes. You can either use the built-in feed that WordPress generates automatically for recent posts, or you can install a plugin that lets you build a custom feed, like the XML-ify WordPress Multiple Posts plugin.

kionae thanks, one more thing, the news site will have multiple cities eg. example.com/newyork, example.com/sandiego both site will have different look n feel but similar content (news, pictures, video, blog post) but will have city specific data ...
any help would be great, cheers
You may want to look at setting up a WordPress network - here's a link to the the information on it:

Also Custom Post-Types :)

Ipstenu, i am not talking about posting of data, i am looking for final citywise different landing pages
example.com/newyork (different look-n-feel, different data)
example.com/sandiego (different look-n-feel, different data)
custom post type will have additional meta/fields AFAICT
cheers
Ipstenu is right. Custom post types could be created for each city you wish to have in the WordPress installation, and would probably be a quicker solution than setting up a network of WordPress installations. This would allow you to independently control each custom post type so you could customize it as you see fit.
At any rate, it sounds like a pretty involved project so you have your work cut out for you.

Tim thanks, could you elaborate a bit more what Ipstenu n you saying! sorry for being so naive
any real life code example would be real help..cheers
Here's a good explanation of custom post types. I've never had a need to use them, but a quick read through the codex provides some insight into it:

any idea how i can change css of defaulf or TwentyEleven theme cloud
like different font, different background color
Not off the top of me head, but it shouldn't be hard. You'll need to look at the class that the theme is using in the tag cloud, then go to the appropriate CSS style sheet and find the CSS for that class. Then change it. I hope this helps!

thanks Tim, is it possible to use wordpress pluing, widgets in php websites without using wordpress as backend ???
No, I doubt it's possible without a lot of customization. IT would seem to be counterproductive to want to just use a widget from WordPress, without actually using WordPress. Remember, all the content is stored in databases. Your php website would have to use the same database structure so the code you were using from a plugin or widget could know where to retrieve the data. It seems like a lot of extra work with little payoff.
I think you'll find the possibilities with WordPress to be endless. There's very little I've found I can't do using WordPress.
