Added an update log to the site's main menu. Should have done this ages ago, but I kept forgetting. Also, I'm putting up the new header poll...
And you may notice my name missing from previous updates at the site. Well, there were some problems with my account and I had to remove it completely. And so, posts made with that account are now nameless. Thank goodness for avatars!

Forums Down
Just letting everyone know I'm aware the of the problem. Apparently, we got some malware cleaning to do, so thanks for the patience.
Update #1: Forums are back up. Please let me know if any pages are broken for you.

Ma-ma-maintenance!
Nothing too huge this time, just a little sweep here and there.
In the mean time, you can waste hours going through picture lists at Oddee.
Or if you're both hungry for music, and just hungry, check out the Documentation of Food Songs.
Update #1: Forum updates done.
So is everything else.

Guest Registering
If you're wondering about the amazing moving login form and random "test" comments... yes, I am trying something out.
Due to many spam, it's probably better for us to restrict comment submitting to registered users. I'm still fiddling around for the moment...
Update #1: Put out a quick guest registration feature. It's still buggy as heck but usable. Let's see if the spambot get around this...

Maintenance Woo
Commencing house cleaning, shouldn't take too long. In the mean time, some videos for your entertainment:
32 songs in 8 minutes. What it says really.
How to speak Japanese without saying a word. For those of you who watch a lot of anime and dorama, or know Japanese people, you'll be nodding along and thinking that is so true.
Skittles Pinata ad. They have a lot of weird ones, but this is just inspired.
Bike Hero. Of all Guitar Hero stunts I've seen so far, including a "Violin Hero" attempt, this has got to be one of the most creative. If it's not done on a closed street, the danger factor makes it even more impressive.
And last, here's a dog yapping.
Update #1: Appears I broke nothing on the main site. Now for the forum...
Update #2: Taking a bit longer than expected due to some compatibility problems, but nothing too serious. The forum will disappear completely for a while as I restart the upgrade from a clean backup.
Update #3: Alrighty, all that's left is some fixes to see if we can lessen the spambot problem.
Update #4: I think that's it for a while. As usual, let any of the staff know if there's something off/wrong/annoying-as-heck. Unless it's the IE problem with the music player and layout wrapping. (I'll get to that... eventually.)
Update #5: Whoops, forgot one small thing. It'll only take a few minutes.
Ok. I'm done.

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.
