I ended up doing some more small updates on the site today, consolidating some of the old code and preparing for a few more big backend upgrades that will be done over time slowly within the next few months.

The only noticeable UI upgrade I did today involved how the category displays at the top of the article. Instead of each category being the same color as I originally programmed in after the UI upgrade, I added additional color templates for each of the different sections on the site right now.

I hope everyone is having a great day today. Drink responsibly if you are drinking.

Yesterday I went live with the new UI which went pretty smoothly before I uploaded a new article by Bonni Barrett.

Today I updated the Navigation to include a dropdown menu for different article categories. I also updated the associated category pages to function as intended carrying over the styles from the rest of the website.

Today I worked on updates rather than adding new content (though I still added an article for organization). I fixed a few minor and a major bug around the website and added a new audio player.

The audio player works like a charm. On mobile devices it doesn't show the volume bar as it is controlled by your media volume on your phone anyways. The new audio player will be hosting the Team Attack podcast on this website. Episodes 1, 2 and 3 all have the new player working on them. You can also download the episodes now as well.

I have never been someone who makes New Year's Resolutions regularly. This year is going to be different. I'm going to push as hard as I can and shine greater than I have ever shined before.

I know I won't be able to keep every single one, but I don't look at them as strict resolutions but more of as goals that I'll try my hardest to accomplish. Most of them have to do with this website, so let's discuss what plans I have in the works.

First of all, I am back and this time stronger than ever. I have had a lot of hard and stressful things happen over the past few months that have pulled me away from regularly updating this website but I won't let things like that push this website aside any more. Everything under the moon has happened from losing my job, pulling my back out, my girlfriend's daughter in the hospital twice, having multiple family members ill and in the hospital, my grandmother who I was very close to passing away, getting a 2 week cold, getting a flat tire, having my dog attacked by a stray dog and receiving a bite near the jugular which would have been a kill bite(which he has since fully recovered from) and the emergency veterinarian did not staple him up correctly so he had extra healing time and had to have extra antibiotics. There are several other things that have happened which I won't go on to list. I'm not going to let that keep me down however, we must go on with the show!

I have a bunch of exciting news for everyone! Today the ability to comment on articles via facebook has gone live! Now we can get your opinions right on the article. I will likely be tweaking the settings here and there but it is looking good so far.

I had complaints about images being too small. I added some larger images for the decklists and articles though I may end up scaling them back a small amount. Let me know what you think in the comments.

I have been working on a card database that will allow me to customize how decks are displayed on this website as well as in the long term allowing people to save and manage decklists of their own. I am very excited about the future of this website.

I am returning to working on the website. There were some personal issues that came up in my life and it demotivated me to work on the website.

Now I will be working on it quite a bit more, though I have quite a few other little projects that I will also be working on. I plan to add magic the gathering Pauper videos in sortable playlists as well as VS2PCG content among other content such as board game night recaps and other content. 2016 is going to be a great year and I'm going to make sure I keep this website updated.

The website has been converted to being database driven which is great news. I am still trying to feel out what I want the layout of the website to be. For example I am not sure how the general nesting of sections and links will be organized or how some of the detailed pages will look.

I plan on having a breadcrumb system eventually but at the moment with an unknown heirachy other than a few basics, it is very hard to plan ahead for those but I think I have come up with a system that will allow me quite a bit of flexibility in that department.
