Well at least the coding keeps me off the streets!  So I decided that a song list without names really sucked, so I made a back end to the DJ script where I can load in songs and properly name them.   It is kind of a pain, though I did make it so I can paste in a set list and it figures out where the names are supposed to go, so give me a couple days and I will get a decent selection back up there.  Theres about 4 or 5 shows in the database right now and the voting stuff is all the same, so you can make it play whatever you would like to hear.  It now shows a nice band name-date-song name list unless I dont have a set list for the show and then they are still just numbered.  It also should kick out a promo once an hour or so so you can hear my sexy voice :D

A bunch of new shows went up in the past day or so from cosmicsoul's archives including Atmosphere, Karl Densons Tiny Unverse, The Budos Band, Swampgrease, Porter Batiste and Stoltz and more!  He is rolling out a ton of fest and 10k shows here and I will be putting them up as fast as I can get em.

Well I have been busy busy.  There are a ton of changes to the tracker frontend that I have put in in the past few days here.  The frontend if you don't knwo is the part you see when you click the tracker button, the backend is another application that your torrent client talks to and what they do is all fairly dull and involves lard and several geese and is far to detailed to explain in this short article.  Now, back to the front end changes.  First off, the big one, the search box, which a few days ago was mostly just an ornament does something.  Even better, it seem to do what I wanted it to do!  You can search by most any field in the database.  Remember that the more things you are searching on the less results you will get, so if you aren't getting results try to broaden your search or remove one of the search fields.  You can also sort the results with the little red arrows (do those point the right way or do they react backwards to what you think they should do?) and flip through pages with the numbered links.  If you find any errors give me a yell.

I have also added a comment system, and a "ShoutOut" system which I think I am going to link into the Karma system that is already set up in the forums.  If you click the ShoutOut button down on the bottom of the info page for the torrent, it will add your name to the list and all the world will know that you are a well mannered person.

I also changed the page layout some and got rid of that bar that was over on the left side.  The login button is up at the top now.  It makes the page a lot wider and theres not all that unused space over there.
