Sunny's Funnies

Now that I've gotten most of the Quotes Database rebuilt, It's on to the Sunny's Funnies humor archive. It should be an easy one to build except for the picture management system.

I haven't quite decided how to handle funnies with pictures yet. The database side of the funnies is quite flexible with regards to adding pictures to a funny. The beast is in writing the web-based UI (user interface). Because there are so many possible functions (add funny with no pictures, 1 picture, many pictures; update funny with 0, 1, >1; delete funny with 0, 1, >1), I want to build a UI that is both functional and usable.

There's no sense in writing 9 different UIs for each of the possible functions because that's just stupid to use. Likewise, one page with all options isn't the best for server load. I just have to decide what is both usable and easy to write (because I'm so lazy :D).

Also, to help get some feedback and interaction in my site, I've added a Submit Quote and Submit Funny so visitors can send me stuff they enjoy and want to share.
