Make it Double!
No seriously, though. I'm (finally) switching the server to PHP5, before I was using PHP4. The whole site was written in PHP4, so there are bound to be issues with older code not being compatible. I trust you all to report any issues you see in the next few weeks, I can't fix them all myself.

There won't be data loss, and it seems the change went rather smoothly. Prompted me to fix something that wasn't broken because of the change, too, which is nice.
Seems everything is still working, but still keep an eye out for me, guys.
Edit: I stand corrected. Turns out there was an insecurity in the way I submitted news to the site that messed it up, making me not able to submit news. Not to worry, I fix't it. _________________

Well it's not THAT special. The only reason I really did it was for one thing. I was making something for people to download the source mp4's from Youtube videos and there was some tricky associations with the signatures of the download url. I needed a function in php that was only available in PHP5...so I upgraded. It works now, btw.
That's my Pirate Ship map promo (the foundry one). You can replace the id after ?v= with any one from Youtube videos. If an HD version is available for that video then a link will be provided to download it, otherwise it just won't show up. _________________

I didn't even want to make it so the user could download it directly. What I'm going for is something where the server will back up the video and save it, then at a later date the user can download the source file from here. It'll be like an archive of Youtube videos that people want to keep just in case. _________________
