Fixed the Urusei Yatsura Manga Gallery (Phew!)

Thanks GiovaneDinamitardo, Comes with the job. Looks like I have just finished all the galleries. Have been editing for the last 3-4 hours, need some rest and then checking other parts of the forum for those obnoxious characters  ;D

Finally, after fiddling so long with some php-code I managed to get the auto-scroller working for the Recent Topics block. It looks like it working like a charm!

Secondly: The missing Calendar is back again and is linking to the Calendar with entries itself.

The current changelog as from today:

    # SMF software updated to version 1.1.11
    # TinyPortal software updated to version 1.0 beta 5-1
    # Removed many old modifications. No performance increase, tho
    # Fixed Shoutbox. Scrolling disabled and working for both Internet Explorer and Firefox
    # Fixed Recent Topics auto-scrolling - IE shows a bit small block, working on this. Firefox is OK
    # Nico Nico Douga embedded videos added. Use the 'Nico Nico Douga' icon while you post
    # Removed all video-tags except the 'Nico Nico Douga' tag
    # Enlarged embedded images up to 800x600 pixels (640x480 was a bit small imho)
    # Spoiler-tag updated to latest version
    # Updated the board-rules for posting video's due to changed way of posting/adding movies
    # Just spent almost 4,5 hours to update almost any post which contained old you-tube tags. Phew!
    # Changed settings on the core-software to speed up the board a bit
    # Optimized/fixed the Smiley's with thanks to Cata
    # Removed all obsolete code
    # SMF Gallery software updated to version 1.0.3. Needs an update to pro version for more options for you
    # Added Time Zones. In Profile -> Look and Layout Preferences, pick your country and off you go
    # Re-configured SMF Gallery so it supports images up to 2050x1540 pixels.
    # Changed the way SMF Gallery displays the actual image when clicking on any thumbnail with browsing options
    # Fixed code from the Forum Statistics. It screwed the lay-out of the left menu bar
    # After rebuilding all tables it shows that the Green theme's aren't supported at this moment. Removed them from selection
    # Applied the SMF Default Theme.
    # Freshly updated core-files uploaded
    # Applied official Green Theme once again. Some minor glitches are there. I'm working on this
    # Fixed the left menu being stretched. Looks OK now
    # Fixed Non Centered Website logo. Shows correctly centered again
    # Website logo clickable - Now points to official start/main Page
    # Edit and Off-topic tags activated again in the same colors as before the update
    # Re-added file-extensions for .ass (AegiSub Subtitle Script),.srt (SubRip) and .txt (for Text Documents)
    # Finally! I managed to get RSS+XML feeds working
    # Added latest feeds to Facebook and Twitter. They will get updated every 30 minutes. Links will be posted in 'Forum News'
    # Removed the annoying message at the end of the inline/tree-view which tells who are moderator on that board
    # Added a background image of our Lum
    # Static and centered background, no tiling and official color background
    # Aligned all embedded video's to the left
    # Auto-refresh Who's Online? every 10 seconds (maybe I change that to 30 seconds to reduce load on the server)
    # Updated forum software to SMF 1.1.12 and portal software to TinyPortal 1.0RC1
    # Got rid of several unused packages.
    # Finally! Speeding up of the whole website. No longer have to wait for approx. 17 seconds or more for new pages
    # Updated all available pages to reflect the new software changes (phew!)
    # New YouTube code added to view those video's again. Use the YouTube icon while you post
    # Re-added Light-green Theme and Green Theme
    # Fixed about 98% of all those obnoxious odd characters \(^_^)/
    # Fixed the Galleries with the same problems as mentioned one entry earlier
    # Finally fixed the auto-scroller of the Recent Topics block
    # Re-added a correct working Calendar and left the clock out of it
    # Made the menu-area a bit wider to get all the content displayed correctly
    # Fixed the download manager. All content is now correctly displayed \(^_^)/
    # New color sets added: Bisdak World Green, Omega Green, Leaf Green Blaze and Lucky Charms
    # Re-added menu option to select your preferred Theme
    # Removed the Lucky Charm theme due to lay-out problems
    # Fixed two minor lay-out issues in the 'Latest member' and 'Please donate!' blocks. Shows now OK in both IE and FF
    # Added some lay-out changes to the PM message sending system. Now it will show an extra notification when you send a PM to another user. On the receiving end an improved dialog message will show the sender's name and topic.
    # A new visual notification icon has been added to the navigation-bar to show there are new unread PM's.
    # Added the option to resize the Reply, Quick Reply and PM input boxes. Might come in handy when posting large hunks of text
    # Replaced the old shoutbox, it was no longer supported. The new one supports auto-scrolling and finally it's more customizable for all the other themes
    # Fixed some missing images for the BCC Codes when posting
    # Fixed some missing icons in the Dark/Light Theme
    # Fixed the \' backslash problem in the Shoutbox
    # Fixed the Calendar. Now it shows both birthdays and Holidays
    # Changed the registration procedure to keep bots out and added a Security Question

Small to-do list:

    Per album download for The Complete Music Box (depends on available webspace or need to host elsewhere)
    (Radio) Function to listen to one of the songs from The Complete Music Box
    Update SMF-Gallery Lite to SMF-Gallery Pro

Good job Lum-chan... as a gift I would offer you a stay here in the hotel... but... I think a Thank You for your hard work is enough... ;D

I wonder which one is true!?

After all these updates this week, I'm taking some time off. Need some well deserved resting time. For the time being, the download manager will be using the default blue-ish theme due to some issues with the Green Themes. I'll get into that after the weekend  ;)

A Happy Weekend to all of you and see ya next week around

Edit:
I couldn't help myself: Fixed the download manager and reordered all the downloads to make it more easy to browse them.

While I was fixing some minor issues with the active themes, I decided to add a few new theme/color sets to the site:
Bisdak World Green
Omega Green
Leaf Green Blaze
Lucky Charms

These can be selected from the menu (like before) without using your Profile settings.
