March 2010 site update

[albummaster]

• The list of charts has had an overhaul and now shows the chart decade and band composition and displays your member rating (based on an idea from harkan in the forums).
  
• We now display within each chart, a link to the next and previous chart so that you do not have to keep going back to the list of charts page to step through the charts on this site. Thanks to Mr. Shankly for the great suggestion.
  
• Within each chart, we now show a comparison to your own chart (if you have created one) showing which albums and bands you have in common. This is based on a suggestion from telefunker.
  
• You are now able to export a custom chart in CSV format. Thanks to RFNAPLES for yet another suggestion and apologies for the delay in implementing it.
  
• If you have submitted a chart that disallows member feedback, you are no longer able to comment on or rate other member’s charts (but you are still able to rate albums, bands and tracks). Any ratings and comments from users that have feedback disabled on their own chart will no longer be visible on the site (and will remain invisible until feedback is re-enabled on your own chart). This is based on an idea from RFNAPLES and joyofdivision in the forums.
  
• We’ve fixed a bug with the ‘my chart’ functionality where under certain circumstances blank entries could be added to your chart.
  
• We now display a ‘my chart’ link within each forum post to provide a convenient link to view the poster’s chart.
  
• Dynamic search suggestions have been added to the Search page. Type a few characters and a number of suggestions will be offered.
  
• Various performance improvements have been made to the album, band, and chart pages to improve page-load times. In addition, the database has now been moved to a private server. The whole site should benefit from improved performance.
  
• Various smaller/less important changes.

Please keep the great suggestions coming and thank you for visting the site.
