OPT somewhat back in development, ISD support for now

(new version @ www.onlineplaytable.com , will try to keep my filehost online)
So, tell us jorbes, where in the world have you been since your last visit?
Short story: Needed to pay lots of bill badly, needed to focus on things that generate income + technical difficulties.
Long story: It's a bit (read: very) private, so I won't go into things too deep, but for a while, I did not have the capability to work on OPT at all.
Not only caused by a major setback due to losing freshly coded work for a new theming system when my source code hard drive went "kaboem" before I managed to create a backup (yeah, own fault, lost 3 weekends of hobby time work though, kinda took me down hard). That hard drive kaboem was caused by my PSU exploding or at least, that is all I could call it, fried the whole system, from mainboard up. To this day I have no idea what the cause was, but since then, I have all my delicate hardware behind a UPS.
Also, the past few months my internet had been dropping frequently, causing a serious headache as my ISP had no idea what the cause was. After getting some tech guys install a temp firewall machine, they told me I was being DDOS'ed quite often. But that seems to be over now (I guess my recent ex gf has a script kiddy causin)
So, I think most things are taken care of, got some nice new hardware and a new 27" screen coming my way soon, so I have a nice clear view to write some new code
Will be reading up on the forums, to see what needs to be done.
