XtraUpload2 - A Better File Storage Engine

XtraUpload v2 has just received its new file storage engine. For the previous portion of development I implemented the old storage system used in 1.6. This engine is effective but does not properly handle files previously uploaded. v1.6 discards the upload and just tells the user that the file was previously uploaded, providing them with the other files links.

New Site Complete!

Yay!
The new site is finally done! The switch to Wordpress has been in the works for some time now and its been a snap to setup the way we needed it. Once I saw that 2.6 had been released I knew it was time to make the switch. It took just under 18 hours to completely configure the new site, a new record for us. I hope everyone likes the new site, all pages are working correctly now and by popular demand the downloads links for XtraUpload are all over the site including to the right of EVERY page. ( -> Look over there under downloads ->)

Now that the new site is up its time to talk about XtraUpload 2.0(XU2). Details about XU2, current development status, SVN access, etc. can be found on its product page. The information on that page WILL change in the next 24 hours to reflect the changes XU2 brings to the table. For instance, sometime this week I will be opening up the language bits for translation, on site. That’s right, you can just come to xtrafile.com and begin helping translate XU2 right in your browser. Not only that but the online translation engine is built into XU2 so you have a nice interface to keep up with language changes. There are just a few more changes i have to make to XU2 before i will release the first ALPHA(read: unstable & incomplete).

Sit tight for a few more days, you long wait is about to pay off!
