I have brought forward the launch of lesterchan.net a few days in advanced as I may not be free on the 9th June 2008 which is the original intended date of launch.

After more than 4 years of using the same layout, the old layout (version 2.0) has been finally replaced with this newer (version 3.0) layout. I think some of you may find this layout a little dull as compared to the previous layout because of the colors used. I am trying to come out with a variety of color schemes if possible because of the colors are controlled by CSS, the only limitation is choose the color. Do note that I am not a designer but a programmer. Most programmers are poor designers and most designers are poor programmers.

Changelog

Todo

  • Add Playlist Page
  • Add sitemap.xml
  • Update favico.ico

Feel free to browse through the whole site if you have not been doing so for a very long time as most of the pages has been updated.

All the old URLs should be redirected properly to the new URLs, I have spent quite a lot of effort to ensure that.

You can report bugs in the comments =)

Do note that there are NO advertisements on this site, not even a single one (I am very proud of that). I am not intending to make any money out of this site. Nevertheless, I still welcome donations (on the right menu) =D.

I am also using Google Analytics to track specific sites like http://forums.lesterchan.net, http://expenses.lesterchan.net, http://files.lesterchan.net and of course http://facebook.lesterchan.net (there is no index page so I am not linking it) where it houses all my Facebook applications.

Since I have moved over to my own server which is located in my own country (Singapore), I would like to know the load time for this site from my users, just give a rough estimate will do. The poll is located on the right hand side menu.

Thanks =)

If you can see this post, it means that the moving of host is completed and now this site resides on my own server, FRRO.

This server is housed by IDC Services Pte Ltd and backed by Qala.

This server is a Dell PowerEdge 860.

  • Single Dual-Core Intel Xeon 3050, 2.13GHz, 1066MHz front side bus, 2MB cache
  • 2x 1GB ECC DDR2 667 SDRAM
  • CentOS Release 5

Hopefully, this will be the last move ever.

DreamHost is pissing me off these few weeks as a lot of my users complained to me that the plugins they downloaded from this site is corrupted. This is due to the fact that the connection is being cut off before the file is being downloaded completely. On top of that, the loading time for my site is horribly long.

I had enough of DreamHost nonsense and I am moving to my own server, FRRO after my exams which my last paper is on 4th December 2007.

Before that, this site will go down for at least 8 hours on the 30th November 2007 because DreamHost is moving the server that this site is hosted to another datacenter.

Hopefully by mid December, the move will be completed.
