In 2025, I updated a lot of deprecated (pre-HTML5) code in the MFGG mainsite software. This fixed the majority of the issues that pop up if you run the W3C Validator tool on MFGG.
Some views and forms still have malformed HTML, though. The homepage is especially tricky to fix because some HTML code is actually stored in the database itself.
These are the pages known to have issues:
Semi-related: Last summer, someone (he might've been a former MFGG admin from Turkey with a walrus Toad character) complained that the padding inside certain boxes was a pixel or two off after one of the fixes I made. Please let me know if there's any padding that needs to be tweaked.
If someone wants to fix any of these issues, be my guest. They're not a high priority.

These are the pages known to have issues:
- Home page/pages for individual news updates
- Viewing some lists of submissions (for example, the How-tos and Sounds lists); the sidebar, Favorites, and My Submissions menus are all affected
- Individual submission pages for each category
- Admin Control Panel submission lists for each category
