Anyone got any bugs they've found? or any bugs you've already reported that I've missed?

Things I've fixed recently :
- Search page would swap to music search rather than news search when using spelling suggestions.
- Same as above, but for the 'search again' box too.
- Releases admin page wasn't using correct instance of the Sanitizer, and was not handling quotes correctly. So if a release had a quote in it, it would come out as "Rich's Test Release".
- One of the params on the search page wasn't being passed through the sanitizer.
- Modified DBObject class to handle null objects silently without causing complete page error.
- Fixed news page so that if you attempt to pass in bad ID it won't crap out.
- Quotes in Release title weren't HTML encoded properly, so the URL fucked up.
- Bug in admin page meant that if it craps out while creating a new release, it wasn't rolling back the changes, so the DB had inconsistent data.

Hey Rich,

Loving the new design layout! I've got some comments for the colour scheme, however.

If possible, the general consensus is that the colours on the site should be brighter and more flourescent - see the colours used on the old preview site and the green at the bottom of the main page.

I'm rubbish myself with designing things so I can't offer any constructive ideas for what I'd actually like to see, other than to suggest that the brighter the better! The current colour scheme is nice but it's a little too "dull" for the Fruit Soup revolution :D

So, all in all - brighter colours would be appreciated, the scheme on the old site was cool, and I'm LOVING the new admin panel and the design/layout of the new preview site. Nice one!

With regards to bugs:

I don't know if this is the result of a bug or just an unfinished page, but we're still unable to update the site text in the admin panel. You get an SQL error when trying to do so.

Ah yeah, sorry, the site text hasn't been put into the normal admin template, so there's no error checking, etc. Will do that this weekend, shouldn't take a second.

As for the colours, I'm reworking those in Photoshop right now, will see what I come up with. I agree it's a bit too dark, so I'll try and brighten it up.
