BandzCMS [PHP] [PDO] [RainTPL] [Caching]

[Mozilla2]

Sup RageZone,

Like the title says, i'm currently developing "BandzCMS" with a friend of mine.
It's a Content Management System written in PHP, PDO , with an easy template system.
I'm using RainTPL because i'm lazy. (Oh yeah, and because i like RainTPL tt1: )

But me and my friend are kinda stuck on the 'template' right now, so we would like to hear y'all opinions.

Screen of Index:

Screen of Register: (It's animated, with fadeIn) :

Screen of Me page (Sorry that the screens are dutch, we will be adding languages soon!) :

snippet :

Spoiler

<?php
/*
 * BandzCMS - A Habbo Hotel Content Management System
 * 
 * © Copyright Mozilla and ℓσgιc
 */

session_start();

define('ROOT', __DIR__);
define('IP', $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']);

if (!defined ('ACCESS_LEVEL'))
	define ('ACCESS_LEVEL', 'ACCESS_ALL');

if (! (ACCESS_LEVEL == 'ACCESS_ALL' || ACCESS_LEVEL == 'ACCESS_GUESTS' || ACCESS_LEVEL == 'ACCESS_USERS' || ACCESS_LEVEL == 'ACCESS_ADMIN'))
	exit (' BandzCMS Access Level Error at '. __FILE__ .': ACCESS_LEVEL is neither ACCESS_ALL, ACCESS_GUESTS, ACCESS_ADMIN or ACCESS_USERS. ');

require dirname(__DIR__) . '/configuration/config.php';

## Autoload classes ##
spl_autoload_register (function ($classname)
{
	$class = __DIR__ . '/classes/class.' . strtolower($classname) . '.php';
	
	if (!file_exists ($classname))
		require $class;
	else
		die("<em>BandzCMS Classes -></em> Cannot load class <b>" . $classname . "</b> on " . $class);
});

## Trying to connect with a database with PDO. ##
try
{
	$db = new PDO('mysql:host=' . (db_host == 'localhost' ? '127.0.0.1' : db_host) . ';dbname=' . db_name, db_user, db_pass, array(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE => PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION));
	TableHolder::setPDO ($db);
}
catch(PDOException $ex) 
{
	die("<em>Bandz Database -></em> " . $ex->getMessage());
}

Any tips or idea's are welcome. This is my first CMS written from scratch so easy on me.
LOL

Kind regards,
Mozilla.

Update: Me page rewritten.

I need some idea's from y'all to fill up some empty space on the me page. Maybe a mini badge shop or something?

I like the design.
Just a tip:

if (! (ACCESS_LEVEL == 'ACCESS_ALL' || ACCESS_LEVEL == 'ACCESS_GUESTS' || ACCESS_LEVEL == 'ACCESS_USERS' || ACCESS_LEVEL == 'ACCESS_ADMIN'))

if (ACCESS_LEVEL != 'ACCESS_ALL' && ACCESS_LEVEL != 'ACCESS_GUESTS' && ACCESS_LEVEL != 'ACCESS_USERS' && ACCESS_LEVEL != 'ACCESS_ADMIN')

Or you could just use an in_array call there.

Is the final language going to be Dutch and we need to translate to desired language or will there be a language system to let the user pick between for example Dutch and English?

Why did you add adverts???

Why did you add adverts???

It's a image. There goes something else instead of ads. But i'm thinking of what i can place there.

 

[RetroMakerD]

What about a radio? Or Facebook Widget.

@RetroMakerD Because i have a server to pay, a TCP proxy to pay, i need to pay some coders.
And because i like some income. It's not that big of deal, because i will add them all on the bottom of the page.

And oh, if you are wondering who the * i am!
I'm Nick, one of the main developers :$

Thats a good point there. If the adds are staying, I wont mind if they are at the bottom where they wont get in the way of anything

Oh forgotten to say :

Password recovery with mail is working 100%
Email verification is also working 100%
When you verificate you email, you get 10 stars/shells/vip_points or whatever you guys call it,

Need someone that want's to translate everything to English too.
