I do some work here and there. Most of what I've done has been syadmin stuff and some performance tuning. The actual frontend design work is generally done by <a href="/members/members_myprofile.php?user_id=1">Phade</a> and <a href="/members/members_myprofile.php?user_id=49">::ReeBooT::</a>.
Right now, what I'm up to is making sure the site can scale up more visitors. Currently, for example, a couple of the very popular types of searches are off because they were killing the server. They will be coming back, in a slightly different form, that doesn't kill the server. At the moment, I'm perfecting the 'Search by Anime' replacement; a <a href="http://www.animemusicvideos.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=4729&highlight=">message about an alpha version</a> was posted to the Site Suggestions forum. It presently (as that thread mentions) does not work too well with Internet Explorer (IE is broken). Also, if you want to see what it should look like, here is <a href="/playpen/img/slayers-motion-picture-screenshot.png">a screenshot of it in Mozilla 1.2a.</a>
Anyway, any major (visible) stuff I do will usualy first appear in <a href="/playpen/">the AMV playpen.</a>
