Commence Fixing

I'll start cleaning up the mess I did yesterday, so don't be surprised if the site behaves weirdly for a while.

Interesting note about the music player... it works in IE7, but not in Firefox. I've yet figured out why and how I should fix it (or even if it's a problem affecting others), but I'll try.

Check back for real-time updates.

Update #1: Blargh, need a break. I'll tidy up a bit more later, but the bulk of the update is done. Is it still considered a "fix" if I made loading longer for everyone? XD

Update #2: You know what, I think that's enough for now. Sorry for making things load longer with the new graphics, but I had to since it was the easiest solution for the disappearing headers. So far, the Cognatio banner is still forced out of its shape and the pop-up player is off-center with IE users. I'm sure there's more, but hopefully they are minor enough. I'll see if I can fix that, or I'll just ignore it until the next big fix.

Hey, at least the graphics open up the page a bit, right? Looks less like a common template (which it is, because I'm lazy) and made things a bit more livelier.

Links aren't all there yet and the gallery hasn't been reuploaded yet either. Will get to that sometime before next year. *cough* But hey! The Featured box is something else! Isn't that amazing!?!?!?!!1!!1/!?

Surprise Downtime

Sorry for doing this un-announced, but the site is going to be offline for a bit as I try to fix some annoying things on the back-end.

Update #1: This is going to take a while. Here watch some laser magic. Also, check out some grooving with HS kids on classical instruments.

Update #2: Somehow, somewhere, I messed up and the shoutbox is now gone. Bear with me for a bit...

Update #3: Bleh, need to do a clean install. Might as well check back tomorrow. -_-;;

Update #4: Site up but in dire need of minor fixes. Apparently the "urgent update" from Mambo was pretty buggy and incompatible with some of the modules we were using. Among them, the old shoutbox and MP3 player (don't worry, I got a new one, just need to tweak it a bit). I found replacements, but now it appears some of the module headers aren't appearing. I don't why it does that, but I'll get to it after I get some sleep.

Minor Update

Merged the One-Shots and Short Comics since UC pointed out they're all one-shots anyway. Funny how I never really noticed that...

Anyway, the links are still incomplete, but I'm in my finals so I've yet gotten to sit down and add another batch. In the mean time, feel free to suggest links at the forum.

Gallery is still also in process of getting set back up, I'll find the time to get them all up eventually. XD

Bouncing Back

The fixes are still going on from yesterday's exploit, but the bulk of it should be done by today. I'll get the forum back up and then put in a new gallery and start resetting the links.

Update #1: Forums are back up. Seems everything is as it should be.

Update #2: Started the chore that is re-entering all the links. Gallery is also in process of uploading.

Blank Front Page

It's been buggy since this morning and I've yet figured out what's wrong. All the subdomains and the forum still work though, so feel free to visit those at the moment.

We'll try to get this fixed ASAP.

Update #1: Apparently we're going through our first hack. It seems it's a common exploit of some sort that compromised all the php files on our server. I'll be trying to get things back up and more secure, but we'll be losing some updates.

Update #2: Shutting down our forums.

Update #3: Mave is joining in on the fun! If you're wondering what exactly happened, you can get an idea here. We're fixing things now and reinstalling stuff. Mmm, tedious!

Update #4: Main site back up and so are the forums. There's minimal loss so that's good. Links and Gallery stuff will have to be reuploaded, though, so we'll do that tomorrow. There's just some small things now that we'll fix when we get around to it. ^^

Update #5: Argh, forum down again. Too tired... I'll get to it after I get some sleep...

Update #6: Check next entry for continuing updates.

First House-Keeping of 2008

Gonna take down the site in a bit. But before that, I'll be updating some minor stuff around the place. If things are a bit weird, don't panic.

Here, watch some beautiful tap-dancing by Fred Astaire and Eleanor Powell.

If you're really bored, here's 100-count down of 100 movie clips.

Update #1: Back online. Going to check if things are in working order.

Update #2: And I think that's it for tonight. The comments should be easier to read now. ^^
