Welcome to the new, full site!

Welcome to the new, nearly-fully done version of the site! Many, many hours have been spent recoding and redesigning the site from the ground up. The entire back end is completely new and while it may not affect you, the server load that the site makes is significantly less.

However, a few things are still left to be done and they will finished soon hopefully. Here they are in the order that they will be completed:

  • Torrent/retorrent all episodes that aren’t currently available for download on the downloads page
  • New PHP-based mailing list with sign-up form located on main page
  • Being able to sort the download page by clicking the column headers
  • When searching, the search phrase is highlighted in the hover box. Apply the same highlight formatting to the episode details page.
  • Implement more advanced searching. Currently, you can only search for a phrase in the episodes, not individual words (like if you search for “tiff vicki”, it’ll look for an episode containing that phrase and not those 2 words individually). I’ll be changing that to defualt words or a phrase if it’s in quotation marks. The news searching is also having issues with searching for a phrase using quotation marks, so I’ll have to look into that as well. I may have to set up a toggle box for words or phrase for the news.
  • Finish site based FAQ
  • Write a short history of the site for the about page

You can discuss the new site and tell me what you think of it right here.

And once again, thanks again to zeroSignal and everyone else that helped design this site. :)

Lastly, if you find any bugs in the site, please let me know!
