I've cleaned up the Affiliates page quite a bit, but you probably didn't notice because nobody ever goes there. It's a forgotten area of the site that nobody's used for a long time.
But since it's a part of the site, and it's broken, it needs to be fixed, else it makes the site look bad.I cleared out a ton of broken links, mostly (those with FTP access can find them in a text file if they want one restored). What still needs to be done though, and I'm waiting for confirmation on this:- Many preview images are broken. If they are not replaced, I'll take them down.- Many sites are old and haven't been touched for years. If I'm not told otherwise, they'll be taken down.- Some sites have moved. Though the links aren't broken, the developer (bless his soul) has provided a redirect link. If I'm not told otherwise, the affiliate links will be changed to match the redirect.I'll finish working on that later. I'm in no rush seeing as someone like DesertFox barely remembered that page existed. But since FSX brought it up the other day as well, I figured I'd go and fix it up a bit.Dabridge, Kaz, and Aeron are doing much more work than me though, those bastards. >=[I'm not really all that aware of everything that's broken, so if you have some time to write up a list of things YOU notice are broken, please do.This blog (among others) can be referenced by anyone who's doing sitework at this time.I work a lot better when I see the problems for myself, and what they are to other people. So like I said, please prepare a list of problems/suggestions (keep them minor for people like me), and we'll get to it as soon as possible.
Isn't that why we ditched the forums in the first place? I guess I'll take a look at it later.
I would double check to see if the referral program still works and if it does make it more public and accessible.
Also you background needs fixing in need of something that loops better.Yes, I know. I was just testing the CSS and was too lazy to take it off.
Userpage at Login also causes the site to randomly deposit you at the http://64digits.com/users/index.php?userid= URL for no apparent reason. This is probably related to the fundamental problem causing the lockout, though.
After you submit an example using the file manager, if you try to upload a file of the same name it will silently fail after the file information is uploaded. This seems to be related to the uploader attempting to overwrite a file that already exists but isn't listed in the file manager itself. Strangely, uploading via URL still works.You're right. People look at V3 much less than they look at the Affiliates page!
…For now.If you're helping with V2/V3, please visit this Google Groups page and voice your opinion on which markup we should use. The current table layout or a completely similar div layout for the markup of V3. FSX and Melee prefer the table layout while I prefer the div layout. We have voiced both our opinions on each and we want to see what would be better.
Yeah I probably spent about 8 minutes total on v2's FTP before jumping right into v3 code… I say don't worry too much about picking bugs out of v2 unless it's absolutely critical

Uhm… not sure if we should be putting those links here.Yeah, I should hop by and actually say something. Mostly I read the arguments in e-mails. Divs are great, and I'd prefer them, but tables are much simpler. I'm not all that great with divs, so I'll stick to features rather than layout if that happens.
But this is a bit of an unnecessary roadblock, one of the many reasons V3 is still unfinished.
