So this week we have made huge progress on v2.0. Noxious has started working on some updated graphics (and they are sick), and I am a good 80% done with the new layout! The biggest step I took today was now the layout is completely W3C valid!

For those of you who are not familiar, W3C is an organization that strives to set standards and guidelines to “lead the Web to its full potential.” By having the xHTML, CSS, & RSS all be W3C valid, that means the site will look as intended in all browsers.

So hear is a list of some of the updates the site will be getting with v2.0:

New CMS based layout, which is inspired by the current blog theme

Updated graphics

Fully stocked media section, with full shows, music videos, mixtapes, promos, etc

Complete biography, discography

More benefits for donating members

Updates to the aStore, Chat, & Gallery

The media player will now be in a pop up window

More ways for you as members and Linkin Park fans to be involved in the site, besides in the forum, including the wiki, and more to come

And lots more!

At this time I expect that we should be done by the end of the month, hopefully sooner! I will be posting updates a couple times a week as we make progress, including some screenshots.
