Minor release of MDB, adding optional support for logging a user’s downloads. Keeps track of files a user’s downloaded, their size, total downloaded amount, and IP that requested the download (with WHOIS lookup support). Anonymous users aren’t logged (obviously), normal users can see their own downloads, and privileged users can see their own plus other users’ downloads.
Also fixed a bug with database updates of titles beginning with the same prefix.

Removed the screenshots page because all the screenshots are old and don’t reflect my current setup at all. (I’ve been using the 3D window manager Compiz Fusion, and before that its predecessors Beryl and Compiz/XGL, which, being 3D, don’t really lend themselves to screenshots)

Since that left the “Self” tab empty, removed that too. Maybe it’ll be re-added if I ever end up making pages about myself. Perhaps when I finally get around to making a resume.

Also removed the “Anime” page under information. It just had a list of animes that I had seen (now numbering over 300, not including series with sequels or subsequent series (like Full Metal Panic’s 2 subsequent sequel series)…). It was originally intended to have reviews accompanying the titles, but the old blurbs I had written were really shitty and I haven’t been writing anything for any of the recent ones. The list was sourced from a database table, which had every anime I have seen from the very first and second (Neon Genesis Evangelion and Love Hina, respectively) to the most recent in ascending ID order. While an interesting exercise in record keeping, without any reviews and with just titles it ended up causing false positives for search engines, when people were searching for information on an anime and found none on this site. So I’ve moved the list to my home server’s database and removed it from the site.

That left the Information tab empty, so removed that too.

Performed a little cleanup of the organization of the site. Removed old pages that were either empty or no longer served any useful function (the fanfic archive rant is old news). Removed redundantly deep navigation (for example, no need to navigate to Music/Original when there are no other categories to explore, allowed access to all programming pages from the root programming tab instead of having to navigate to Programming/PHP just to see the php projects, etc).

Will probably whip up a page about my senior design project (a cross platform Foobar2000 clone) in the future when I get a chance.
