Thanks I was missing out on my "I have nothing to do so I'll go play on the internet" time.

Btw just fixed the members only image viewing.. uploading works too but the url that it gives you is incorrect.. hopefully i'll fix that soon too (if you wanna create the url manually just add a membersOnly/ directory before your filename)

Timezone todo:

0a) Get hosting company to install the MySQL timezone tables (needed for step 2 awesomeness)
0b) Disable new posts
0c) Backup the database ;-)

1) UPDATE shout SET date=date_add(date interval 1 hour) WHERE shoutId >= 9774 AND shoutId <= 14262;
2) UPDATE shout SET date=CONVERT_TZ(date'US/Eastern''UTC');

3) Institute all the changes found here:
[club9com@vhost-78 ~]$ find . -name "*.php" -exec grep -l "UTCUPDATE" {} ;

4) Update index.php & everything else to use:
gmdate("..." $ts - 5*3600) // eastern time zone for now

5) Implement user-settable time zones that use DST 8-)

hosting co is about to migrate the account to a new and improved server so the page might go down at some point. maybe i should make a backup of the database =-o

edit: when i say "about to migrate" that might mean 10 minutes or 10 days i have no idea when they plan on doing it

So I think the transfer went off without any major problems. Did anyone see the little error message I put up or was it a seamless transition for everyone else?
