I've upgraded the site to .NET 10 Blazor. It was surprisingly easy.

The next few days will tell if there are any issues. So far everything looks to be working fine.

I have added support for swipe gestures on the Photos pages. This means that if you are viewing a photo on a touchscreen device (e.g. mobile phone), you can now swipe left/right for the next/previous photo.

On a PC you can still use the keyboard cursor/arrow keys to see next/previous photo.

I've made it possible to add multiple Genres to a movie instead of only one Genre. This way I won't have to deal with Genres named e.g. "Horror/Drama".

I've upgraded the site to .NET 9 Blazor and so far everything looks mighty fine. Let's hope it stays that way.

I have created a new Statistics page and I have moved any existing statistics boxes to that page. I have also created some new boxes there.

The Statistics page can be found via a link on the About page or by using the link below.

I have changed the layout of the "Welcome" page a bit. I have added some new content boxes, I have moved some of the existing boxes around, and I have removed a few things.

I have added direct links on the "Welcome" page to Movie Reviews, Concert Reviews and Record Reviews.

Let's see if the "Welcome" page stays like this or if I get new ideas later.

I have added a lot of new photo albums over the last few weeks. I still have tons of old photos in the archives and I'll keep on adding them, I just need the time to do so.

I have added older photos of e.g. The Dresden Dolls, Amanda Palmer, Prince, Motörhead, The Cure, Adam Ant, Sigue Sigue Sputnik Electronic, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Gemma Ray, Hollywood Vampires, Kim Wilde, Immortal, Paul Di'Anno, Alice Cooper, Hank Williams III, D-A-D, Hola Ghost, Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie, Taggy Tones, Wendy James and many more. 

I have improved the search textbox on the KP Says, Concerts, Photos, Videos pages. It is bigger, always visible and it is now case and culture insensitive. This means that if you search for "motorhead" you will also find results with e.g. "Motörhead".

I have changed the layout of the content pages a bit. I am not sure, if I like it better than before, but I'll experiment a bit more. Let's see how it ends up looking.

I've upgraded the site to .NET 8 Blazor and it went great (so far) with only a minor issue I could easily fix.

Microsoft has (yet again) made a lot of changes to how Blazor applications can be constructed. If I want to follow the new ways of doing things, I'll probably have to rebuild a lot of the application. I'm not super excited about this, and we'll see if I ever get around to doing this... It will require a lot of work.
