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

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 :ott1: )

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

Screen of Register: (It's animated, with fadeIn) : http://i.gyazo.com/ba4895971a7d0bc8d465daf221f7aacd.gif

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

Spoiler:

PHP Code:

---

<?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());
}

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?

This is looking good so far. Ill sure give this a try when its released! Good luck with the rest of the development :D:

Good luck on this! hating the background tho.

I like the design.
Just a tip:

PHP Code:

---

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


---

PHP Code:

---

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?

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

What about a radio? Or Facebook Widget.
