By the way, your card descriptions is outdated.

Added the rarity icon to the cards.

Fixed a bug that stopped the display of a few images thus causing certian cards to display funky.

Added a small auto compleater for searching, this will only help you if you are searching for a card name. If you are looking for a card by it's text, artist ext auto compleater will not return what you are looking for but you can still search baised of of that.

reasons you may want this (and it happened just last night to me) someone tells you there is a card that will let you control all uncontroled spaces. I didn't know the name and that person didn't either. I typed in the word control and got a few responses from the search. Bronze statue being one of them and the card he was talking about. So we now know the name of the card we where talking about.

Things that you should change:
1. Unit -> Creature (we don't have Units in game, we call them Creatures);
2. all keywords with number should have number in brackets (for example Lifespan,4 -> Lifespan(4));
3. no Dim picture in cards description.
4. in Sappling card Treent:Sappling -> Treent Sappling (why there's ':' character?)
Improve:
1. Make blue keywords clickable or with description popup.
2. Make whole table line clickable (not just card name).
3. Add two card columns instead one because current table is almost empty.
4. Remove cards categorized as "Other".
5. Remove cards categorized as Bloody Rare (or give then another name like "Not ready cards"). It's just cards that not implemented and not ready for game.
6. Make filters same way as in client (may be it's too hard at the moment).
7. Add line of buttons for all categories (all that you have in popup). It's too bad to use click + accurate move + click to select filter.

I increased the height of the menu items I think this will help with clicking the right menu item.

[some suggestions]

If someone would fix the wiki, my code's complete to populate the wiki w/ all the cards -- w/ copious categorization -- so the data is community-controlled as opposed to individual-controlled.

Once the individual loses interest, or becomes busy, their contributions become deprecated a la VeratilEladamri's efforts. The wiki is more accessible for prolonged maintenance.

The updates to the live site are going to be post poned for a little while. I am going to leave it how it is because I know a few people are useing it.

My wife made a layout for the site and I am recoding a few parts of it for the layout. She says it looks nice but since it's blue and I can't see blue I just have to take her word for it.

This I don't see taking much longer than the next week before it's up to at least the point that the live site is at. She also has me creating a new part for the site that is involved in the layout I'll let that be a nice supprise for you all :D.

I am still working on this and have no plans to not work on it until it's working the way I want it to.

Ok I know it's a bit sooner than I told some of you, (being monday), but I got a bit excited and worked hard today and go the code updated for the layout and even put in a bit more codeing, it's the tad extra I was expecting to take til monday.

The supprise my wife has in the layout are actualy 2 things, one she had me make tool tips of the card when you hover over the icon, this can save you alot of time if you don't care to see what other users have to say about the card(s). The second is a random card that is displayed in the banner area of the site. This card can be any of the official cards you can actualy use (includin' the starting bases) This may help you when you want to get an idea for a new deck. Push refresh and a different card should pop up right there, seldom you'll get the same card twice in a row but that's the odds of the dice.

Sorting has now been added to the card listings after a search. Click the title of what you want it to sort by, and if you want it to sort in the other direction, click the title again. Hope you like that one, I nearly tossed it out the window when it broke but I got around it and it's working again...

Fixed the error in the cookies of the site, it wasn't remembering you if you checked the box, now it will.

Added filtering, click the drop down boxes under search and click "Filter". You can filter a seach of nothing and get back all the card that match your filter or you can search first then filter, the choice is yours.

All ratings of cards previously made are still in the database and thus still in play so you won't have to go back an rerate a card you already rated.

Everything is now back on track and will now be working towards further improvements as well as the new features I've been wanting to get to (like mock card building, to create your own cards and show jed what you would like to see, hum.. I know someone who's drulling).

Forgot to mention added a few security mesures to the site after I fixed the remember me button, don't want anyone stealin' your log in for any reasons, so I added a check sum feature that will prevent anyone form logging in as you without your password (the database holds a doubled hashed version of your password, I can not read this so even I don't know your password). Currently there is no way to change your password, It's one of the features on my todo list, but is still a few steps down, since the site is still so new I don't think I'll be needing it for at least another week but the remember me feature will keep you logged in for 30 days after your last visit to the site.

Filters are not working for me in FF 3.0.5. I get a system message box that says "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded."
