I'll Be Back...
Tomorrow I leave for a two and a half week vacation to Slovakia, where I am also getting married in my future wife's home town.
Site development will resume and news posting will start on or around April 15. News posting will probably take a while to pick up to full speed while I resubscribe to all of the heavy metal mailing lists I used to receive. The back-end is functional and I intend to weed out any bugs before an official launch on May 1.
Until then, I also plan to get the member system up and running as well as the discussion forums. The admin back-end is starting to look and work really well, so that I can manage all of this site stuff easily and from anywhere.
Site Update Log #2
Major changes to the site architecture. Your probably won't notice them, but I spent a good amount of time rearraging my database relationships for expandability and speed.
This stuff just sucks time because I haven't spec'ed out the entire site with all future plans in advance. But I'm focusing on the news posting and membership sections first so that the site can get up and running. Next will be the bands/reviews (admin and user)section and the forums (news commenting and discussion forums).
