Coded a karma module. Integrated it into the forums. You can also change a person's Karma from their user profile page.

Added two new themes. Azul and Hardwired.
Go here to try them out:
www.gotpoetry.com/inde...edit=prefs

Removed a few obsololete themes that were very broken.

I have Karma working pretty well now. I think.

Karma is a way for a member to exalt (raise) or smite (lower) another member's Karma rating ... and, like karma, if you're a good contributer, and you help others, your Karma should go up, conversly if you're the poster child for stupidity, then your Karma should go down.

It is a way for members to self rate. There are mechanisms in place to prevent one or two people ganging up on another. There are ways for me to tell who is giving karma to who.

Fixed your account module. I believe when you look at the user profile of others you will no loger see any of your own information - such as forum posts and groups.

Updated, new, improved - now with sorting and paging.
www.gotpoetry.com/My_Posts.html

Buddy List completed - now with all topics of a buddy, all posts of a buddy., integrated into Your_Account and forums. If in your profile you set Show my online status to No, people who buddy you will not be able to tell when you last visited the site or when you are online. You will always appear at the bottom of their buddy list.
You set that here: www.gotpoetry.com/Your...prefs.html

See your buddy list here:
www.gotpoetry.com/Buddys.html

Karma - pretty much done. I plan on adding reasons that have to be chosen and can be seen. Perhaps a throttle.

Added new theme calle "texty". I pretty much made this one myself...

It displays NO images at all, so the photo gallery won't even display anything.

I made it so I can view this site on my phone and it will be quick and slick. For those of you who like a slimmed down no nonesense theme, this one may be for you.

Karma

Submit an article to the main page, it gets published - your karma goes up by + 5.

Submit a Web Link, your karma goes up by + 2.

Submit a Download, your karma goes up by + 2.

Donate, your karma goes up by + 2. (Still testing this one.)

If your karma is greater than 35, you can help moderate the comments on the news / articles.

Your karma will go up and down based on how your comments are moderated. +1 and +3 for positive rated comments, -1 and -3 for negative rated comments. This still needs to be tweaked.

Lets see. What's new?

These are new:
www.gotpoetry.com/most_posts.html
www.gotpoetry.com/RSS.html

Lots of more hooks for the Karma. Looks like the donation karma is malfunctioning. Sigh.

New download module.

Oh and check www.gotpoety.com It's where I test all of this stuff out before I put it here.

Added a guestbook to the Your_Account page. Go to your account. Go to the bottom. If you have not created a poet_page then you will see a link to add one. Once you have a poet page you can then see your guestbook and see the entries on your profile page.

Member google map - You can place a marker on the map for where you live, or like me the park near my house that I like enough.

Its certainly close enough. No need to place the marker outside your bedroom window unless you're into that sort of thing...

Moved site to new server.

Did lots of behind the scenes stuff.

LiveJournal changes thier theme system. It really messed up the /LJ.html module. Tweaked it for now, will research and work on a solution.

New links area:
www.gotpoetry.com/Links.html

Tied links into your_account.html
Hooked Karma into links.html submissions
Kept old links data and pages in place, but removed them from the menu.
