Hi!
I like the new forums look! But where did search go?
...and incidentally, has there been any discussion on cross-platform GUI programming / frameworks on here? I'm feeling inspired to brush up my C++ again so I thought I'd try my hand at making a photo manager, just to see if I can. I thought I might use QT, but since Casey spoke ill of it ("such a pile"?) I'm not sure where to go.

There been very few discussions about GUI. Mostly that immediate mode API is a way to go. It will give you the most flexibility.
Here's a video from Casey on immediate mode GUI: http://mollyrocket.com/861
And Here are some nice libraries following this concept:
dear imgui: https://github.com/ocornut/imgui
nuklear: https://github.com/vurtun/nuklear
Papaya and Milton projects use dear imgui library.

I remember trying to create general search... it was horrible.
Elastic is evil. (maybe I would understand it better today.)
Consider making Google do search, and just manually parse their results into the style of this page.
Reason 1: They'll index the site for search anyway.
Reason 2: The horror... \backspace \backspace -ible strain on the server if you need general string for page search.
edit: Sorry that was uncalled for, I just had a PHP flashback.

Thanks for the replies! I guess Google will catch wind of the new url eventually.
Who needs search when you have mmozeiko? Thanks a bunch for the pointers, those look like much better starting points for my work than I'd ever dared hope to find :-)
