CD-Events gets a (partial) face-lift

[Brandon Martus]

I sat down and made some updates to CD-Events this weekend. It's not done yet, but it's getting there. I just wanted to point out some of the new things that you'll see.

Menus -- there are now some menus up top, similar to CD-Media's menus. These will more than likely be expanded and rearranged before they're made final.

Home Page -- the home page now has information on it, rather than just a link to the events listing. It will show the featured event(s) on the left. An event is featured when it is the next one that is happening -- if there are more than one on a day, they will all show in a random order. Right now, most events don't have much written about them -- so if you've added an event to the calendar, go update it with information about the event! If you are in charge of the event, but don't have the ability to edit it, send me a PM and I will give you access. You will also see a list of upcoming events and upcoming popular events on the home page. Both lists will show whether or not you've marked yourself as attending or not. The icons may change -- if anybody has any ideas, let me know.

CD-Media Integration -- Three random photos from an event will show on its detail page. These show up based on their tags -- so tag your photos properly! The tag gets associated to an event manually, for now, but eventually you will be able to set that up if you are the owner/maintainer of the event (coming soon..)

More coming soon .. feedback always appreciated.
