Filters and search pretty much done

That's how filters are going to look and work.

• Search by: all titles, dramas (also films), animas, people, users, characters.
• Order by: ascending, descending, score, popularity, recently added.
• Listing by: is/is not on my list, on my friends list.
• Medium, country, episodes, year, genres.
• Actors and staff (by entering their name, mdl will show you a dropdown of possible names).

In the options part, you'll be able to chose one of the options, and in the filters you'll be able to chose multiply and add more and more options to your search.

Search is also pretty much done, it'll how it'll look. You options, like said before will be pretty nice.

• Instant search (searches as you write in the upper menu, you can remove your search).
• Shows results (how many).
• Navigate between pages.
• See year, rating, synopsis, poster, genres, type
• See 'on my list' or 'not on my list'
• See 'on my friend's list' or not.
• Use filters.

Hope you like it. There are some minor bugs we're still working on, but that's how it'll generally look at the end.

Rebecca Black -- Friday

(sup?)

It's definitely the most educational song I came across in the past years.

It's Friday, Friday.
Yesterday was Thursday, Thursday.
Today is Friday, Friday.
Tomorrow is Saturday
And Sunday comes afterwards.

When one of my cousins will have a child, I'll be sure to recommend this song.

Now let's get real, after I lost one of my best mocking lines ever, I'll just move back to being serious.
You know, I wont tell you anything about poetry, educational messages and the fact those 13 years old guys are driving a car... but I want to speak about the very intellectual statement she's trying to sing about.
You know, she's trying to say that Friday is the day where all people should sit in their car, and go party somewhere. We all should just sit in our car, have an inner conflict about the sit we are going to take and just PARTY. Can't you see how smart this message is? Next Friday, I'll definitely go with her to some party, since her friend is on the right.

No, now seriously it's one of the most terrible things I've ever seen. I fail to say anything good about this... I don't know how to call it. I'm afraid to call it 'music', since it's not. Maybe I'll call it 'noise', ya, I'll go with this one. This noise is one of the most terrible musical works I've heard in the past few... I don't know. How the hell did the music get that low? leave the part that this girl can't sing, at all, she can't make music as well.

But best part to laugh at about her song is the lyrics. You know, I'll just post some parts of the lyrics here and write a short comment about it.

(Yeah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
Oh-oh-oh, oh yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah-ah-ah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

best part about this song ^_^

7 a.m., waking up in the morning
Got to be fresh, got to go downstairs
Got to have my bowl, got to have cereal
Seeing everything, the time is going
Ticking on and on, everybody’s rushing
Got to get down to the bus stop
Got to catch my bus, I see my friends

Ok, so it is like this. She's waking up in the morning... pretty much like I wake up in the morning when someone jump on my belly. Afterwards, she sings about other really poetical stuff that are just too long to explain, too wonderful to understand etc. You see, Seeing everything, the time is going, is probably the best line to show  how pointless the lyrics is (aha, and all the other lines as well). Can someone explain to me... what the hell does it even mean? For me it's like 'blablabla something to fill the noise'.
And than happens something I would never ever imagine could happen. She's waiting at the bus stop for the bus but than she see her friends... and than she doesn't need the bus stop anymore? How does that, for the holly bottles make sense? 'Ya, I was waiting for the bus, but than I saw my friends... and than I just forgot about the bus. Oh, well, IT'S FRIDAY!'.
Got to make my mind up
Which seat can I take?


That's a hard question. I wonder, which sit can she take, if the two front sits are taken...?

I got this, you got this
My friend is by my right
I got this, you got this
Now you know it

And we got that, and they got this and she got him? I mean, what do I have?... what do you have... what? I'm confused. If my friend is by my right, so who the hell is the other girl who I'm hugging by my left? I don't know anything!!! *panic*

We-we-we so excited
We so excited

We so excited. Let's look at it grammatically, you know... like... English. We so excited is written in Rebecca Black tense, which is a tense where you should remove all personal verb form like 'is', 'are', 'will' etc. You know, all forms of 'to be'. Just write the person and the verb, it's really easy. Some examples: "you so funny", "he so lovely", "cat drinking" etc. Even better will be if you'll say it two times -- in that case you should triple the first word, 'we we we'.

It's not good as a pop song, not even as trash. I would not pay to listen to it, and I would throw imaginary rocks at her if I see her on the street. Know what, she's so bad I probably wont even recognize her.

It was Random chan, who just wrote 'Ranma' instead of Random chan and deleted it because it's really stupid... wait, that was long let's try again. (btw, you can sing it together with Rebecca Black's song, it fall really good with the music). Try it.

It was Random chan who gives this noise review for fara. I love you guys, stop listening to junk ^.^.

p.s omg, my Shallows review was longer. bi.

Information theft from mydramalist.info by an iphone app

Today, we were reported about an iphone app that uses the entire mdl database. This app costs money.
It copied pictures, information but mainly (what stands also in our site under protection policy) synopses.
We reported the issue and hope it'll be deal with. If not, we will start to act on our own, firstly by blocking requests from iphone devices and/or any other devices using such programs.

Stealing something on the Internet is like stealing in real life. This database was earned by hard work and lot of time. We appreciate our users and think it is terrible to do such a thing. We wont go lightly on it.

Advanced Search

Those are not all the filters, they are only being worked on.

• Search by type: Animas, Dramas, People, Characters, Users (later other things as well).
• Search by medium: Film, TV, etc.
• Search by Actors and Staff.
• Search by general info.
• The search will allow you to pick many genres, many cases (as you can see on the picture) and many different combinations.
• Instant search. The second you pick something it'll write it under the search, and search by it. You can pick 'is' and 'is not' together (see picture).

Screencaps

• Screencaps from shows and films.
• Featuring only pictures from the first episode.
• Three alternating screenshots.
• Adding by episode (1, 2, 3...) / part of film (beginning, middle, end)

Upper Menu

Upper Menu Done:

• Sort by search as well as instant.
• Guidelines link.
• Help (FAQ) link.
• About link.

That's how our sketches look

Well, that's our idea for the menu above.
Search + three nice bottoms (will look different, probably).

• Search will search when you type, but you'll be actually able to sort even before by the type you want to search. Just click (+) for drop down menu).
• FAQ will be updated, with a whole guide of 'how to use mdl'. Pictures, answers etc etc.
• About will contain a few new CC rules, information, credits, and everything that has to do a major part with the site's info.
• Guidelines will be updates into a better format, maybe with a few explanations as well.
• The comic will have its own place on the main page, so it does not show at the upper bar.

Final Design and a Few New Features

After a long time with no posts, I show you
final results of the new design for mdlv3.
That's how this babe is going to look, but we
are currently working on the upper menu search
design and looks. Soon we'll be done with it.

To encourage you for new ideas, I'll list here
new features we already have in the brand new version:

• Instant Search. Searches as you write.
• Instant Filters. Filters to your wish.
• Screencaps. Add screen shots to titles.
• New Menu. Focusing on your lists more
  than before
• Drama Share With Friends. See what your
  friends watched, and what they didn't without
  looking directly at their profiles.
 

Those are the features mostly completed
and will be available on the new site.
Big thanks for lustmord who helped us
figure out the upper menu problem, and we'll
work hard to develop it and make it look nice.
