New Look for ProjectSteveGuttenberg.org

What do you think of the new site design? The redesign is intended to preceed some new development work that's been planned. Look out for a new version of PSG within the next week or two.

Looks good Gavin! I'm curious if the new design will be more OO, so we can subclass the main PSG "engine", and over-ride the methods to make slight changes.

If you need a hand in anything...drop me a note.

Here are a few of the things on the TODO list:

- support for "pinging" blogging directories like Wander-lust. Actually I've already have a patch for this from Wil so it's just a question of enabling it.
- a "submit story" option and a article queue, a la Slashcode (ssh! don't tell anyone!)
- probably some OOP too, since it makes sense and also makes the code more maintainable.

Plus bug fixes for the following:

- some text needs to be run through stripslashes(). In fact it might be better to turn off magic quoting for the duration of PSG's execution. Since it doesn't need a database that is a safe thing to do.
- the CSS classes will change name from "journal_whatever" to "psg-whatever", which is more valid.
- currently, PSG uses PHP sessions in an unconfigured state. This means that login sessions for domain.com/~user1 spill over to domain.com/~user2. This will be fixed, possibly with a config option to define the cookie path.
- any others I come across.

If anyone has any other suggestions, please let me know.

I'm definitely looking forward to the new version. If you need beta testers, you know where to find me.
