That's really awesome! The look is really nice too apart from the need of a new header, and all the horizontal lines between fields. It should be very easy to remove the horizontal lines, and it's super easy to do a new picture!

I'm looking for a database to host on ni2.se by the way, so is it ok if we move it there when its ready?

Moving is to ni2.se would be optimal, as I am pretty sure that my host doesn't want to keep this site.

And I will get to work on those dang horizontal lines. (it makes my eyes hurt a bit)

Awesome! Just let me know when it's ready to be moved over! I'll try to do a nice header image as soon as I have some time!

Just jumping in to say that, if you need a mirror for the level archive at any time (much like you did with the forums for Saira's release) that I could serve that purpose.  I have unlimited bandwidth which I believe is actually unlimited!  Do note that I can't maintain the archive itself, having very little knowledge of PHP, and I may not even be able to play the game itself depending on my luck with WINE.

My bandwidth on my .com server is also unlimited, just like Nifflas' .ni2 server. The problem is, that once you get a certain amount of traffic, the site is pulled down by excessive CPU usage. Have you stretched your account before to ensure that you don't have limits?

Ah, yes, CPU usage could be a problem.  Forgot about that.  I haven't tried stress-testing it, no.

I'm going to have the CPU usage problem too, but I don't yet know to what degree. I'm also thinking about alternative solutions for the time being; perhaps my eee box would work nicely if I can be my own web host? I'll need a faster connection to the internet, but if I can solve that...

CPU usage should be minimal, as all of the uploaded files are directly stored on the server, and not sent through a database. All of the other joomla based things are rather low resource users.
