Apologies for the seeming lack of activity over the past two or three months. Things *are* happening in the background. The servers have now been upgraded which should allow the site to cope with the increase in traffic that BEA gets during the final third of each year, and will also allow the site to scale into 2013. Apologies for the downtime while the servers were upgraded.

The next item on the roadmap will be 'fun charts'. Fun charts will allow you to add any type of album chart of up to 100 entries, but unlike the other types of chart, these charts will not count towards the overall rankings.

Favourite albums
Albums are no longer automatically included in your favourites if they appear in your charts (they now need to be explicity added). http://www.besteveralbums.com/phpBB2/vi...php?t=3763

Collection composition
You can now filter and see a breakdown of the albums in your collection, listened and favourites by year, decade, band and nationality.

Moderation system
The moderation system has been updated so that items can only be edited by one person at a time. After an item is saved, or when 15 minutes have elapsed (whichever is sooner), the item will become available for editing by other people. http://www.besteveralbums.com/phpBB2/vi...php?t=4228

Other fixes and improvements:

Support us
If you'd like to support BEA, you can do so in any of the following ways:

  • Link to BEA from other websites. Talk about us on other websites, create a buzz and get people to check us out (but be careful not to do this in a spammy way!)
  • Buy your music via BEA. If you discover a new album or track, with help from BEA, use the iTunes, Amazon and eBay buttons on this site to buy it from your favourite store. BEA gets a small commission (pennies), and it helps to pay our hosting fees.
  • Subscribe to our newsletter. Keep up to date with the latest site news by subscribing to our FREE newsletter.
  • Use our chart widget. Share your chart on Facebook (or any other website)! You can find our chart widget on the resources page.
  • 'Like' us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter. Liking us on Facebook is a great way to promote BEA! If some of your friends see that you 'like' us, they might check us out too!

Enjoy the site and more soon...
