Through the last 3 days, the DLDB has been changing. Here's a list of what's changed:

Due to an old special friend of Staredit.Net, now our DLDB automatically makes map images and thumbnails. Most of the time. It needs some tweaking for bigger maps. If the map is huge enough, you might get an out of memory error. Check to see if your upload went through via "My Files" and either go on with your edits or reupload if it apparently does not exist. Also, it does not output start and resource locations. This will be added later. Also, there's an ability to generate such images from the map at any time. No need to reupload to get a generated image if you either delete the generated image or for a new fixed image when it's upgraded.
The portal system. Apply a specific category through out the DLDB. For example, select "Mods" and every page in the DLDB will display only Mod files or areas tailored to mod stats.
Browsing tweaks. You can add and remove tags while browsing to expand and narrow results easily.
SC version for mods.
Added "Status inapplicable" for when open/closed status doesn't make sense (ie: sound files)
Display and skin tweaks everywhere.
... as well as some code/functionality tweaks everywhere

I still got a little bit of tweaking to do before moving on to another area... so more to come soon.

And major props to Corbo for uploading a bunch of cool mods. Huge files can be annoying to upload and he did a bunch of them. So yay

Awesome looking DB now. Although, I think we should kinda moderate what maps get uploaded. And upload moar maps. I didn't see Uberena on there!

Boatianity: A philosophy developed by Jesus Christ involving winboats and failboats. Those with lots of win are winboats. Those with lots of fail are failboats. Those in the middle are boats. Lends itself to epicness, such as 'May the win be with you' and 'The fail is strong with this one'.

I recently switched my MSN ID to Centreri@Live.com. ADD ME IF I CARE ABOUT YOU.
July 18-on (for a bit more then a month, too lazy to look up exact date) I shall be on vacation in Russia. In other words, my access to SEN will be limited and I will probably be completely unable to participate in map night :omfg:

. However, don't feel sorry for me. While you're playing SC I'll be speaking to crazy Soviets, so I'm going to have a great time. KEKEKE.

I think not posting any name(s) is a good indicator he does not want you to know.
