Ha... no... it is when your cookie has a name that the database doesnt.... it erases your cookie for you... :wink:

Illegal access is when you try to get into the admin page and the script catches you. You can right click all you want on LOD... wont really get you any place. never really has before... it can get you into not being able to download a file right... :wink:

OK... What have I been working all day... That is the question... And.... I posted it, so you guys could have a good look at it. A concept that a co-worker and I kinda played with about a year ago. A page that will make it'self as you type. No where near complete. There is a proper link to it on LOD. It is one of the sections of the page that you guys will really never see. It is the News Creation Page... What has been powering LOD for about a year or so now... Finally getting a revamp. This time, it shows you what you are typing as you go.... Some smilies are working on it... I put it up for your enjoyment, it doesnt actually save any data yet. But the scripts to write the data are done, just have to get the data to them. Over the weekend I will be adding to this page. There will be a popup toolbar to do the smilies, so they wont appear on that page... Well, other then the button to bring up the toolbar, the page is just about complete. I get to add more java as I add more smilies... Hmmm Where too mooch smilies from.... :wink:

heh, yep... about 99% of the way done with the java for this particular page.... You guys can check it out.... The Java takes a gallery database and applies it to the news toolbar. It will effectively know what thumbnails go with which pictures. All that will be able to be done through the main window or tweaked through the gallery window. All of that is maintained through the database. It will also come in handy when doing a WIP page, as requested by TDA. A single Thumbnail could generate multiple Images. So you could do an update of a thumbnail to the closest WIP pic, tell it it is part of the gallery, and then search for it through the Gallery structure. It will be a pretty cool looking Database Driven thing... I am happy that I am so close to being done with this page... it is one of the heaviest pages I have to do. Lots of Java, and I am only a novice at that....

Next up:

File upload scripts... where we can start putting some files back on LOD... Too bad no one will be able to see it till the core is up... Sigh... alot of work still left to do.

The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers."

In the "For what it's worth" section..... The gallery at LOD is up and running... almost complete. After that, the WIP section, which is partially embedded in the gallery will be up and running... though that is all currently available on the site.

Also, I have a temporary Nav bar in place so you can see the way things are laid out.

I don't have a timeline for the files sections of LOD yet, but they will be coming soon.

Have a good time with it guys...

The thing at the top is being worked on.... there is a small button on it that says size... if you click the button, it will load a non animating top... however, it is a little screwed right now, cos it loads the entire page into the top... and doesnt alow you to see the rest..... However, it is all cookie based, so after you switch it to the lower setting, and reload the page, it will remeber which you want, and always load up the non-animating part.

The site is a design by me for the most part... all of the new cgi scripting is done by me.... the logo was done by another guy, dont know his name, one of CADster's buddies. He is supposed to be making some new nav stuff for it, though I am not sure exactly what he has in store....

I think the past month or so of my life has been alot more hectic then I though.... I have had alot of 'pans in the fire' goin at the same time... some of them have been completed, some have not... I have new cars in the works, and really can't wait to get back to modeling and having fun... Programming takes alot out of the creative part of LOD IMO.

Well... Now it all is officially Fixed.....

I think everything about the downloads page works now... Course, I have all of you to test it, and play....

Lots of stuff left to be done, but it is all a down hill race from here. The largest section was the new downloads page... and a few clicks will get you pretty much tuned into whatever you are looking for as far as searches are concerned.

And never let it be said that I didnt listen.... Even though it didn't seem like I did.... The Gallery Format part of the Downloads page (Where you can see pictures) is broken up into 9 block sections like the Gallery page. So you don't have to wait a year and a day to see pics. It also displays a description about the file and allows you to see a 640x480 final which is associated with the final....

But all of that is up to you guys, cos the Listings still work just fine.

Give me an email, or respond in this forum if anything doesnt work.... or if you just have some suggestions.... Time to put LOD back on the map, and get our fans back supporting us.
