A few changes
New Stuff:
The template "Jigglypuff" has the option of "friendsof." This is still being tested and has not yet been incorporated into any of the other templates. The "friends of" option allows you to view the entries of people who list YOU as a friend.
We've also added a graphical thingamajig for pre-viewing the templates. Go check it out under "Select Template."
Your default usericon also becomes auto-selected for your entries now. So show your mugshot!
We've also added one layer to logging in that you cannot see. A lot of people are unable to access the log-in portions of the site due to cookie restrictions. Tabulas currently uses PHP sessions to handle user authentication; this is rather tricky and is very picky. We will be developing multiple log-in methods (e.g. cookies) so you don't have to constantly login everytime you re-visit your site. But this is quite some time down the line ... we have a lot of other issues to deal with first. In any case, you will notice no change, but if your browser has not enabled cookies you will be sent back to the log-in page instead of the add entry page.
Problems:
There are issues with daily hit logging. We're looking at it.
The future:
Over the next few weeks we're going to kink out some of the ugly UI issues, as well as developing a few new features. Look out for it!

By the way, you may want to lengthen the string that stores the User's home page. For people like me who have a University webpage, the current allowed length doesn't let me fit my webpage's URL in.
