You scurvy curs! Why would you do such a heinous thing?
One day GW will be back...one day...

Yo Faust 
I am sad to see my beloved GamingW in this state, it occupied a significant amount of my adolescence. What happened to Drule?

You're magic-quoting (ugh) your filename rather than quoting it.
$sql = "DELETE FROM `$tbl_name` WHERE filename=`$fileToDel`";
Should be:
$sql = "DELETE FROM `$tbl_name` WHERE filename='$fileToDel'";
Also, you should get used to using the unique identifier of the table, usually ID or similar, for this sort of query - you could have multiple entries with the same filename and they will ALL be deleted in this case.
$sql = "DELETE FROM `$tbl_name` WHERE ID = $row['ID']"; or something along those lines, depending on your database structure and naming conventions.
there's plenty of other stuff that could be written better in that snippet, too, but as you say you're learning I'm not going to overwhelm you with things like that.

I know I'm not the most active person on here ever, but I'm going to have to completely focus all my efforts on sorting out my life at the moment and GW is a distraction so I'll be gone for quite a while.
Hopefully I can come back in the new year and get on with GWidol 3 but for now it has to be on hold.
A lot of things have happened in the last few weeks, nearly all bad, so I'm going to need some time to get it sorted.
See you all in the new year hopefully.

Hello Dear Friends!
Once again the winds of change are upon us, and this time I can say that I am very happy about the result.
While out on the European tour I had several in depth discussions with many loyal Iced Earth fans. A common theme of these discussions was how much Matt is missed. I agreed with the fans that things were not the same and that it was a very special period in Iced Earth’s history.
When I heard several months ago that Matt was going to be doing a project in music again, I was thinking about contacting him and seeing what his intentions were. I didn’t act on this because I was so focused on the writing of the new epic, and frankly, it just didn’t seem realistic.
Well, after getting out on the road and speaking with many of you directly, I decided to call Matt and see how he was doing and if he was interested in working together again. I am proud to say that he is coming back to Iced Earth and we will be getting back to work in the studio very soon.
Matt will be singing on Part 2 of the Something Wicked concept CD and we will be looking forward to getting out on tour and delivering a series of Iced Earth shows that will rival any in the history of the band. And there will be a proper DVD filmed from this period, something we’ve all been waiting for.
I want you all to know that it was you who made this a reality. I have missed Matt’s presence onstage and in my personal life in a big way over the past few years, so I appreciate your honesty in our discussions. It did help me realize the decision to move forward with pursuing this. The fans have spoken and we have delivered!
You true fans know that I’m a straight shooter, I say what I mean and mean what I say. And though I value your opinions greatly, you must believe that this is a decision that comes completely from the heart and is not motivated by anything other than what feels the best for Iced Earth. This is the way that things have always been dealt with, for better or for worse, but always honestly and from the heart.
Tim Owens is a great and talented singer and I wish the best for him and his future on a personal and professional level.
There will be more news soon as to further developments and plans. This will push back the release of Part 2 a bit. Not because we couldn’t be ready to record in time, but because of a new addition to Matt’s family in early 2008!
I am very happy to announce that Iced Earth is truly BACK!
Have a great holiday season. We’ll be in touch very soon with more details.
Jon Schaffer
-----------------------------
This is fantastic news; Matt Barlow was one of the main reasons why I listen to Iced Earth, and hopefully he will have restored his passion which Schaffer said he lost just before he quit Iced Earth.
Wonder how Tim Owens reacted to being forced out of the band though...

probably because their last album was such a terrible mess
but I agree, Therion are certainly one of the best symphonic metal merchants out there

You can suggest a start date if you like, guys, I'm happy whatever.
I'll pm you all once the preliminary round information is up in the GWidol forum.

Dada I think you should participate rather than judge! You never know we may like your singing voice
esh is third judge imo (brits of a feather stick together)
no suggestions on format/prize???
EDIT: Signups are looking good, people. I'm not putting a limit on competitors yet as the first round will be an elimination round to cut down the roster.

Sup guys
The legendary GWidol is coming into town!
At the moment, this topic serves a dual purpose - for those who wish to participate either as a judge or as a contestant for GWidol 3 to register their interest (so I know how many people are wanting to do this thing) and also for round suggestions, general format of the competition suggestions, prize suggestions etc.
This time I will probably make some sort of prize available for the winner of the competition, as an incentive. You may suggest prizes because I have something in mind but you guys might come up with something better.
If this topic takes off I'll edit this post with judge/competitor applications as well as round and format suggestions and prize suggestions - in the upcoming weeks there will probably be a few polls so that the community can decide how the competition will run.
So guys, let me know what you think. And to reiterate...
The plan is that there will be a prize for the person who emerges victorious in GWidol 3!!!
