Litestep.Info

As some of you might remember, there was a large amount of talk 
semi-recently regarding bringing litestep.info back online. A lot of 
talk, not much action, both on here and on West's board (which seems to 
be down :-( )

The site's intent was to be an "informative", user-friendly place for 
new and prospective users.

Anyhow, I thought it prudent to ask YOU, the litestep users, what sort 
of ideas could be seen as "informative" and thus, something to be 
considered as content for the site.

As I recall, things "we" DON'T want:

    * Forums -- We have enough of these. I don't really think having
      forums is necessary.
    * Wiki -- Dont think another one of this is needed either, as we
      already have one: http://wiki.litestep.com.ar/Index (Note:
      Although, I like the idea of a wiki.litestep.info mirror/redirect
      thing)
    * Themes -- We have SEVERAL sites that cover this as well. Also,
      doesn't fit into the scope of the site either.

Things we "do" like/want:

    * Module Documentation: This is a *big* undertaking however, and not
      something that would be available at launch.
    * Articles/Tutorials:
          o Theme Reviews: This was discussed on the forums, I think it
            would be a nice idea to do a weekly review of a theme, with
            a rating system, and several categories to rate.
          o Theme Tutorials: Basic tutorials on how to do BASIC
            themeing, nothing advanced
          o General Tutorials
    * FAQ: Basic questions only. A more advanced FAQ can be found at
      ls-universe. Suggestions for questions to ask/answer would be
      appreciated. Examples:
          o What is LiteStep? (Remember, new people, so they wont really
            know)
          o How does it work? (Simple answer)
          o ????
    * RSS Feeds to other sites? I dont see why not.
    * An image gallery? Not exactly "info" but this *would* help show
      litestep off.

I've been working rather fervently on this lately, and while I dont have 
alot of content, I do have a design in the works: 
http://lsinfo.the-golem.com/ and 
http://the-golem.com/projects/lsinfo_v3/index.html show the project in 
various stages. I know the design isnt anything overly special, or 
innovative, but I am kinda proud of it.

Your feedback is much appreciated.
