LANDING PAGE:
--- Changed from the VEKTR0v8 lettering logo to the new VEKTR0v9 lettering logo. I should've truncated this one.

SITE-WIDE:
--- New background images, to commemorate the release of VEKTR0v9! Gradients galore!
--- This also extends to the new header icon. Gotta keep your header on a swivel.

FUN DOWNLOADS:
--- New Wallpaper Pack for VEKTR0v9 Release has been uploaded. It lurks in the shadows, though...

CHANGES:
--- Added 2022. Somehow, went a whole 2.5 months without updating the website. In my defense, I had to wipe my PC on Christmas, never got around to getting website-related software back up and running until now. #lazy

SITE-WIDE:
--- Big changes behind the scenes to bring the site up to speed with Jase's site regarding PHP, organisation and other things.
--- External CSS is now minified and combined with the rest of the site's CSS as one file.
--- JS now is combined and minified together, including some external scripts.
--- HTML is now also minified, with comments stripped etc.
--- Because jQuery is a pain in the ass, multiple scripts that used jQuery have been now changed to be vanilla JS including: --- Adjusted the link color to be easier to see amongst the background.
--- Some CSS improvements reducing media-queries and other unneeded & repeated code drastically. Including:
GALLERIES:
--- The portfolio and download page galleries now make use of an improved PHP script. PHP functions and classes are great for reusability! One feature the script does is check that there's a matching image to the thumbnail or vice versa and display above as links any that are missing, plus grab any captions/alt text from an array if existent.
--- Gaming & YouTube Thumbnails now have 16:9 ratio gallery thumbnails instead of being 1:1 to look a lot cooler.
--- Added some curves because we all love having curves in our lives.

DOWNLOADS:
--- Download pages are now more accessible with thanks to a brilliant PHP function that Jase did that gets all pages and matches whatever the incorrect url is. Whether the request is like "/mods/abc/files/***", or "/mods/***", or "/mods/12345-***", it'll direct you to the right place if it exists, or otherwise just stay at the download section's home. It can also check multiple specified folders for pages, so if want to hide something by moving the folder to an archived folder but still want it accisible by the same link, then you can do just that.

REDIRECTS:
--- The function Jase did for this, a PHP redirection script, it is quite the charm. Instead of using .htaccess so heavily, or nginx confs so heavily, or a url shortener that uses a database, this gem is hugely powerful for simple redirects and wildcard redirects, and much more simple. You can get the script too from Jase's stackoverflow post.

PORTFOLIO:
--- Added Forza Horizon 5. Gotta go fast.

FUN DOWNLOADS:
--- Deleted 3 letters, fixed an issue that prevented all available downloads from showing. They were "fun."
--- Following Jeremy's suggestion, I created an unplanned wallpaper pack to celebrate the launch of Forza Horizon 5. Spontaneous, much?

SITE-WIDE:
--- Updated background to v8.3. So bright, it's more of a foreground image.
--- Updated fl0manel in header to v8. He's been a good boy.

--- Typos suck, SO I YELLED AT HEM.
--- *THEM

ABOUT ME:
--- Updates, per uuuzh. Sorry, wasn't really sure how to spell the first syllible of "usual" to make it sound like how you say it. This bullet point is now significantly longer than I wanted it to be.

PORTFOLIO:
--- Relaunched, now looks "Fancy", like that one song by Drake, T.I., and Swizz Beatz from like, 2010. omg that was 10 years ago.

CHANGELOG:

DISCORD - ROLES INFO:
--- Roles on the website now reflect roles on the server. It's like sweet bliss. No, I'm not talking about the drug in Far Cry 5. More like bliss.jpg from Windows XP. You know, the legend of a desktop background that got covered by those shortcuts for SimCity 4, mspaint.exe, and Internet Explorer.
