WOS Trivia Update

Production on WOS Trivia has continued today. Now, the questions are pulled real-time from the database using AJAX, filtering out any questions already answered. Correct answers add to the totaled points of the player and filter the question from future showings; incorrect answers add to the tally of attempts for the question.
I've been adding more to the screen display, like a countdown clock. A progress bar of completed answers and a total player score and overall ranking will follow. The display is now more colorful instead of the bland greyscale of before, thanks to a new Wii Opera SDK function in the 3D class called "reColor".
Here is a comparison of yesterday's to today's progress of the question screen:
Remember that the final version will look much different and that much of the blackspace will be filled. I'm even considering creating an interface for making Mii-like 3D faces that animate while playing. That will come later, though.
