Why not have a style sheet that looks just like old ilx? Or the latest rage: style sheet option buttons so the user can change his own personal experience?

Both things are the plan. If you want to work on the first one, do so and send it to me!

if you live on the East Coast, your time zone can be America/Dawson-Creek

Are you sure that doesn't refer to Dawson Creek, British Columbia?

That's going to take a little bit of time to tie Apache and Tomcat together. I can't get it done before the weekend, sorry. :(

How good are you with a mouse? Test yourself here - from the time you start ticking the boxes you have 20 seconds to tick as many as you can. Click restart to clear the boxes and try again. Good luck!

I'm not complaining about the log-out thing though, shit, a local music messageboard I "registered" with 3 days ago has yet to send me my activation code.

I'd still like someone to confirm that the reason why a work-in-progress was unveiled to the public was so that it could be test-driven. Because as it stands, I don't like the fact that half of ILX is on Nu-ILX and the other half is still on the Sandbox. I wish it had been more like, "Hey guys, test this out for a day or two, let us know what works and what doesn't, then we'll figure out how to fix it so that everyone's happy, and then later we'll unveil the whole thing as Shiny Nu-ILX."

Hide images completely hoses images over there :( So its either barrage of pr0n/ILXors, or nothing at all. Sigh oh well.

even with the font changed, I find nuILX almost unreadable. Too much space, maybe?

MAYBE

Because Jon left us no choice? He unilaterally started fucking with the old, busted code (to tell us it was old and busted, apparently). We had to take it down, because it seriously shouldn't be up if people are going to hack at it, it's way too vulnerable and I'm not having our sole server get pwnd because of some 1990s-era PHP vulnerability.

At that point, there were two options: a pile of pointless work on the old code to secure it, or a hasty slap on the new code's ass, which needed stress-testing anyway. (Or leaving ILX down for months again, which I really didn't want to do.)

When we say it's "in progress", that's a general it-will-be-improved note, not a "we're actively still adding features right now, tonight". We need to first make sure the hugely-complicated cache works properly (it seems to be) and then think about where to take it next.

I don't like the fact that half of ILX is here either. This was never meant to be a permanent site, and it won't be. I'd be taking it down soon anyway, apart from the very real problem of people who plain can't get to the new site.

xxxxxpost to Keith : I have managed to register from my work computer this morning, so all is well. I wonder though whether I will be able to access nu-ILX from home (I had trouble posting on certain threads on old ILX from my home computer because my address had been caught up in an IP ban on someone else. It wasn't much of a problem as I don't often post much from home anyway, but if I am now going to be excluded from nu-ILX completely at home, I will make a sad face).
