Updating site security

Hey everyone.  This is just an update.  I've been beefing up a lot of the security on this site lately.  I've mostly been upping the security for the Comments and Search forms on this site.  I did have some checks and security in place to stop crap like SQL injections and such, but it was kind of lame.  So I've done some proper security updates.

Anyways, you guys shouldn't notice any changes or whatever with the site.  But please let me know if you have any issues with posting comments or using the search form.  I've tested both out thoroughly, but I'm only one man (and a n00b).  If you run into any issues or have any questions or comments then please contact me.  You can either leave a comment here or e-mail me or use the contact form (both can be found here).

P.S.  I've also updated the site theme.  The default theme is now the light version of this site.  Why?  Because I like it better than the dark version.  If you like the dark theme better then click on the 'dark' link on the top right side of the page (next to the menu links).

Found a problem. It has to do with posting without a URL. And I liked the dark better.
