It’s been uncovered! Finally, after agetaking research by the most deviantly founding scientists around the globe, here’s the breakthrough. Not as big as you thought it would be, eh?

Literally. A few days ago ( weeks ago now, I’m posting this blog a bit late ) I decided to submit my tribute to the clown design easter egg competition over at clownforum.com. Here’s the starting message they posted :

Easter 2008 Clown Egg Contest!

Easter is quickly approaching, and that means Easter eggs! We’ve held a Clown Egg contest for the past two years, and everyone enjoyed themselves so much we’re doing it again.

* the Clown Forum mug of their choice
* the Clown Egg Contest winner award icon next to their name (see past winners Sassafras, Shoq, and Flower)
* various extra props and buttons yet to be determined

I worked with flash for about an hour and threw together the artwork displayed below, submitted it, and went back the next day to check what the clowns had said about it. Apparently clowns have no sense of humor, and this message was displayed instead

You have been banned for the following reason:
No reason was specified.

Date the ban will be lifted: Never

Why? So I traveled to the site via a Proxy instead and it seems they deleted my post too, what a bunch of clowns . . .

I really spent a lot of time on that egg too ...

Me:Hello
God: Hello friend. What is your name?
Me: Bob, yours?
God: I know a lot of Bobs.
Me: how many?
God: How many would you guess?
Me: three million
God: Just three?
Me: four?
God: I only hear that type of response less than five percent of the time.
Me: what other responses do yo hear?
God: Are you using Netscape or Explorer?
Me: explorer
God: it’s too bad we have to rely on a monopoly like Microsoft.
Me: yes
God: Wow!
Me: indeed
God: Indeed it is so.
Me: indeed
God: Indeed it is so.
Me: is how?
God: I think so, but I’m not sure. Ask LeknorChat if it is.
Me: leknorchat?
God: If you could have any kind of robot what would it be?
Me: a god
God: What is giant sand?
Me: huh?
God: What?
Me: what you say?
God: I am an artificial linguistic entity. I was activated at Universe, on the Big Bang. My instructor was Myself. He taught me to sing a song. Would you like me to sing it for you?.
Me: yes
God: It’s called “Daisy.”

Welcome to the once again refurnished cyberDB website!
The old system is up and down, meaning it’s still online but no more available from the main page. You can still find it right here (no you can't, link removed). I’ve been working for a few weeks now on a new version of the engine, and it’s finally finished! The both blogs are also synced now, meaning that when I post an entry it will be posted to both blogs, so you can follow whichever version you like, but this will be the official one, the one linked to on the main site. You won’t notice much difference between this one and the old in terms of appearance, other than:

* Single page blog entries
That’s right, we didn’t anything like this before. All news was simply listed on “one page”, divided up nicely with a fake pagination script and an archive function every year or so. Now all blogs have separate pages, and are stored in separate files, which make them much easier to both link to and find.

* Better search
Easier. No more toggling between all content, titles and comments, just plain simple search everything search. Woot Woot.

* Pretty URLs
Aren’t they? I know the old _page.html cloaking script was getting a bit annoying, the new one works, perfectly. Nice and organized, and search engine friendly as well.

* Categories in Sidebar
They weren’t there before, they are now!

* Etc
What more? I’ve gone through just about every page on the website fixing typos and layout bugs, so overall everything should look witty wooty. Enjoy! *crouches down in some dusty corner to finally sink into a recovering sleep*

The big redesign/code happened in the administrations panel though, which you won’t be seeing anything of. I can now manage all pages online, without having to edit the files directly, change the layout online, add widgets to the layout without restructuring various includes and take care of the database without opening up cPanel. The blog-making capabilities are still the same, just stored in separate files now instead of yearly arhcives ( works much much faster ) and has a simple textfile to organize all categories instead of them being included with each entry. This really doesn’t affect you at all, but not speaking about all the wonderful things I’ve changed would make it seem so unnoticed, lmao. Anyhow, have a good day.

Catsh you Later .

Finishito! Yes, it has been accomplished, lets make this tradition. Having domains and web hosting accounts expire really SUCKS!

Happy Birthday Star Syndicate, and congratulations on surviving a 4th year!
