    thanks, populating dropdowns from the db, so everything will always be accurate and sustainable.
    Video upload is almost done, you can test it out here:

    thanks to red for help with link algorithm, if the link contains time, it will be populated in the drop down box, otherwise you can select the time.

    The new site is nice, a lot better. One thing though, does it really need the background image? You cant really see it anyway

    No, I guess not. I can take it out if you lot want. Just let me know. Haven't had much feedback at all. So it's hard for me to know.

    It's fine, no worries. Just let me know if ye want it removed. I also noticed some people posted Player Videos but have had trouble showing them. I'll look into that too.

    Not had a chance to look at the site, but if it's anything like the MM site, then it'll be awesome.

    Good work Haakington.

    Not sure if ye think the Irish scene is big enough but, how about a monthly podcast ?. Could do it right before each Inferno to hype it up, talk about the results and what went down during the previous Inferno, as well as any online tournaments held. First few episodes could probably talk about the history of the Irish scene so far, you could even have guests on it week such as OG Irish players talkin about how it was 'back in the day', maybe even get some international players(Bush could Interview WorstGiefEVER and ask him his thoughts on the the Blanka matchup :p).

    Just a thought :cool:

    I can do some of that!

    First off though, great work. I hadn't realised it had changed until I randomly visited the page the other day. T'was a great surprise!
    Now for the critique:

    The background does look off. I'd recommend something more flat and potentially in green.

    I dont think each article needs the avatar of those who posted them. They already have the author credited under the title and the avatars look tacked on. Also, I'd prefer a text colour that's not orange for the titles, but that's purely a personal choice.

    The menu under the site logo is hard to read in places due to the transparency. I'd give them fully opaque backgrounds.
    Also, they reallign themselves to fit the screen, and on my 1024*768 display 'Events' ends up on a line by itself. Maybe locking the buttons into two smaller rows, or making drop downs for similar themed options could deal with that?

    Finally the boxes on the right go down too far. By the time I reach the last few I've totally tuned them out.
    I'd remove the following:
    Log In - There's already a log in tab at the top of the page. No need to double them up.
    Recent Comments/ Recent Posts - Does anyone ever really look at these?

    I'd also place the Tournaments and Events pane higher. It should get more priority than the community box - possibly put it at the top. It's what we want everyone to know about first and foremost after all.

    Thanks for that Sairus. Unfortunately I'm extremely busy at the moment so I won't be able to do any of that for a few days.

    However, I just logged in to the site to do some small things and noticed a **** load of spam in the activity feed section. This really needs to be kept in order. There are also numerous spam accounts (I deleted around 50) - I think you lot need to get a few people who are interested to keep an administrative eye on the site, as currently there are ads for T-Shirts and all sorts in the Activity section :/

    I deleted as much as I could but I've too much work to do today to get the remaining spam.

    gwan the bush

    speaking of updates, im almost there with the Database

    Some example pages:
    http://iamjpg.com/streetfighter/video.php
    http://iamjpg.com/streetfighter/browse.php
    http://iamjpg.com/streetfighter/player.php

    You can now login, if assigned as superadmin, you can add/edit/delete videos/events/players etc
    if admin you can only add/edit videos/players

    All i need to implement is
    -Styling, through out the site, putting it together
    -Registration [some sort of approval thing]
    -Search functionality
    -validation when uploading videos etc

    It is my speciality I guess - damn A&M being spam bloody central >_<

    I wouldn't mind helping out with spam if you need another person or whatever. I certainly have the time anyway.

    Just thought id let whoever runs the site know that i couldnt make an account on it. When everything was filled out and i clicked on sign me up it just brought me back to the same page again with what i had typed in erased.
