Art Archive broken (RESOLVED - FALSE ALARM)

At "Fixation" it exposes a whole pile of SQL.

The art archive is actually working just fine. What was broken was the Songfight Coverbot, and it made a whole lot of art submissions with a bunch of what is effectively gibberish values.

Rest assured, songfight.org will never have a bug that will result in it putting SQL anywhere SQL doesn't belong, because ... songfight.org doesn't use any SQL at all, or even any kind of SQL database at all!

Also, the Songfight Coverbot is not an official thing so us admins don't have access to it. Seems like maybe it was fixed and it submitted art for a couple fights and then disappeared. I have no idea of its current status. I think Jerkatorium maybe hosts it and knows its owner? Seems like possibly it's actually still "working" in the sense of generating art for new titles. But maybe it doesn't actually submit the art automatically, and there is a manual step that's not being done anymore?

That said, we really should probably clean that shit up.

If you hit the button it just says submission is disabled. I know I submitted one of their entries under their name for them once a long time ago when it was broken a previous time but pretty sure I haven't since it's been broken this time.
