AF Redesign - Update

The first update to the new AF site was completed today with a second scheduled for next week. If you see any problems or have any general comments or concerns, please comment in this thread.

Fixes:

1. Major performance tuning for the 'anon' frontdoor. (Logged out)
2. Performance improvements for the logged-in frontdoor. Disk space calculations are now done in a separate frame to speed loading.
3. Photo album fixes for occasional 500 errors.
4. Posting to community blogs now displays the correct username.
5. Webshell editing "preview" mode now displays pages correctly. (Images were broken.)
6. Various link fixes, popups ads where they don't belong, typos, etc.

Still outstanding is that old versions of the webshell (basic and advanced editors) would assume that 'angelfire.lycos.com' is a valid domain for member pages. This has not been true for years, but the new update removes legacy compatibility. We will be updating member files over the weekend (and into early next week, if necessary) that were subject to this bug to make them point to the correct places again.

We are also aware of blogs performance issues, especially on Tripod, and are working to resolve them as soon as possible.
