Re-launch of The Love Arcade

I've done a heap on new stuff, this includes:
  • - Making a unified colour scheme
  • - Commenting now works & can be done without having to refresh the browser
  • - Project can now have MUCH longer names, that also include spaces.
  • - Thumbnails are quicker to load, and for the media section, will open up a `light-box` of the larger version.
  • - Site readability is up 100%, this was achieved by reducing drop shadows
  • - I've made useful error pages (this sounds lame, but really is a big deal)
  • - And land but not least, I've completely re-written the introduction page (click here to see: Linky)
So come and visit the NEW Love Arcade

Was gonna PM it you but you can't send attatchements.
Here's a wip layout that mimics the style of love2d.org.
Most of it is css so it should be easy for you to fit the php code in.

PS: the most important feature (lie) is a screenshot gallery like

http://gameboom.net/games
lg.newImage("cat.png") -- made possible by lg = love.graphics
-- Don't force fullscreen (it frustrates those who want to try your game real quick) -- Develop for 1280x720 (so people can make HD videos)

“This Website is best view in Firefox 3.5+” -> Please remove that. I know Firefox is great, but it's not the whole world. See http://www.anybrowser.org/campaign/

Also: Universal Binaries are not for Linux, but Mac OS X. ;)

EDIT: also, Alternativly -> Alternatively

You Midori-fan! Anyway, I prefer "This website is not to be viewed using Internet Explorer", and then preferably use some incompatible html/javascript/css/drugs.

Or let the server detect the User Agent string, if it is internet explorer, always return a 403: Forbidden.

I understand that Internet Explorer is horrendous, but why the hate? Aren't we about the LÖVE?

Well, yeah. That's why my original comment was this:
