| v2.5.0 (august 22, 2007) |
- U2start is renewed, it's the first major upgrade since the release of v2.0 from 10 months ago.
- The layout is redesigned, it's not entirely changed but it's now more one part instead of
several parts.
- A new header image has seen the daylight, the U2start logo is renewed as well as the favicon to
mark the major changes.
- New: Submenu's below the header to create space for extra menu items, this presents itself
on the bootleg and the forums pages.
- New: U2start is viewable in multiple languages, we're starting out with the English, Dutch,
Italian and Spanish translation but hopefully some more languages will join us in the future.
- New: The more audio department, from here users can upload and download ZooTV Phone Calls,
performances with fans and soundchecks.
- New: The photo department, a place for high-resolution U2 photos where users can upload and
download photos easily.
- You too: The poll is rewritten and now completely in AJAX which gives the possibility of voting for
a poll and see the results without the need to refresh the page.
- New: Private messages, users can send each other private messages who cannot be read by other users.
- Bootlegs: The bootleg pages are very much improved, the rating system is renewed with now
10 possible ratings instead of 5 to create the option of a compromise on questionable ratings.
If users disagree about 3 or 4 stars we can make it 3,5 stars. There is also a new value, named
"type recording" which can contain values like "soundboard" or "audience". The system itself has also been
improved on other sides like the option to display as much sources as we'd like.
The other new thing is that you can sort the bootlegs per tour on quality or number of downloads,
now you can easily search for the most popular or highest rated bootlegs of your favorite tour.
- Videos: The video page was getting too big with over 500 videos, we divided them now in multiple pages
sorted by era (eighties, nineties etc.). The viewing of videos doesn't go through YouTube anymore but
through a window inside U2start.
- Songs: More songs have been added to the songs section like the majority of the b-sides.
- Forums: Users now have an option to add topics to a list of bookmarked topics or add topics to a
list of subcribed topics. Whenever they do so, people will receive an e-mail if there's a new reply.
- New: Help pages, pages with a FAQ, the new house rules, the crew, a changelog and more information
on anything a U2start visitor should or maybe would want to know.
- A lot of bugs have been fixed and a lot of small improvements were made.
