I am going to be moving my application off of the Google App Engine cloud. I liked some of the things that app engine did for www.noobmusic.com, but it is clear that I will end up spending an ass load of money trying to host a resource hog like noobmusic.com. I plan to put it on a dedicated

I apologize to you on behalf of the web2py community. I don't think anybody meant to bash you, only Internet Explorer. You're 100% right about large companies using ancient browsers. I work for a very large fortune 500 company, and we are still using IE7 with no sign of an upgrade in the works.

Thanks for pointing that out, this is probably a stupid question, but where do I change the metadata author? I put in my own meta tags, but the defaults that come with the app are showing up instea. I kept wondering why facebook would say "a cool new app" when trying to include it in a comment.

Your footer should follow the same layout as the nav bar, meaning 100% width across the screen. I cant really see the forum without signing up first. Your copyright symbol is not showing up. It looks okay, but I will let some more technical members give their comments.
