... and it's only a little after 4 in the morning. Yeesh.

I just adjusted all the templates in the site which causes a bit of a logic change in how people will interface with it. The biggest change is that comments are now viewable in static html instead of calling up the comment CGI script and pulling it from the database on demand. Originally, I didn't even generate individual entry archive pages because of the limited webspace on the old account, but this is no longer a problem, so I decided to make the switch. This causes less access to the database, and also speeds things up quite a bit. I'm trying to figure out how to make the site return you to the static entry page rather than the comments CGI after you actually leave a comment, though...

Noting on some of the structure changes - all my sites are now hosted in their entirety on DreamHost. (Yes, I'm going to use that referrer link at every opportunity.) This means that StarCreator.com and megami.starcreator.com are now actually on the same physical server, instead of being separate locations like before. I won't be moving the gallery back to StarCreator.com itself, though. I've actually implemented a bandwidth throttle on megami (which is by far the most bandwidth-consuming of the multiple domains), so this gives me the advantage of letting me throttle only megami without cutting off access to this site.

And I'm -really- tired, so I'm going to call it a night now. This took WAY too long.

Thanks to raziel for converting the database to an importable form so I could actually get this site up and running again.

11:40 AM - Looks like the comment issue has been fixed - I had the right line of code to do it, but MT is apparently picky about -where- you put it. Thanks to Jeff Lawson for helping me out on that one. I also added an actual date stamp to the individual archive pages - not sure why it wasn't there in the first place. The only thing I haven't tested is MT-Blacklist functionality.

And yeah, it's far too early for me to be up, but I was forced awake 3 hours ago by some of the nastiest loose stools I've seen in a while. Need to re-hydrate then catch up on the rest of my sleep now...
