When the website went live, it contained a completely different image than the one displayed now, there was a vertical list of zeros. Over time the length of this list changed frequently, along with the number of zeros in each entry. This was the first indication that something strange was happening in regards to ''Year Zero''.
=== Track Listing ===Eventually, the listing stopped changing and 16 entries were left. Over the next week or so, three titles were revealed, one at a time: "[[The Beginning of the End]]", "[[God Given]]" and "[[Vessel]]". By this point, fans were already wildly speculating what would happen next.

On February 12, 2007Then some distortion was added to the image, appearing next to the track "[[ETSMy Violent Heart]] user " right before the song leaked, next to the track "[http://www.echoingthesound.org/phpbbx/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=6668 ianmatthews[Me, I'm Not] posted a track list he found from Soulseek.

Since then, there has been some distortion added to the image, appearing next to the track [[My Violent Heart]] right before the song leaked, and then next to the track [[Me, I'm Not]] around the time the song was leaked. Distortion appeared next to the track [[In This Twilight]] shortly before it leaked. ===Survivalism Video===Static appeared on "[[Survivalism (song)|Survivalism]]", shortly before thereafter the "Survivalism" music video was leakedand then released on [http://yearzero.nin.com the Year Zero website].* [http://yearzero.nin.com/survivalism/survivalism_hi.mov High resolution]* [http://yearzero.nin.com/survivalism/survivalism_lo.mov Low resolution]

[[User:Mephitix|Mephitix]] has [http://mephitix.epfarms.org/glitch.png extended the left-hand glitch] and found that it overlaps Track 2: The Beginning of the End almost perfectly, leading one Next to speculate on the importance of the track or that it might be leaked soon. (This theory has been debunked since the addition of more information appear were links to the page, forcing the tracklist down the pagea trailer.)
== Video = Trailer ===[[Image:Yearzero video hi frame135.jpg|thumbnail|Road sign in the ''Year Zero '' trailer]]

The road sign In the video, the camera quickly glances over says a road sign witch reads "[[I AM TRYING TO BELIEVE]]". A "[[:Image:Yearzero video hi frame325.jpg|glitch]]" later in the video briefly shows the text "/0024", which quickly led fans to discover the page http://yearzero.nin.com/0024. According to the file name, the image on that page may was found to be the cover for the ''[[Year Zero]]'' album. The album art appeared on the page and eventually a link to a listen link.
== Flash Player = Listen ===
[[Image:Yzplayer.jpg|thumb|The flash player on yearzero.nin.com.]]
Less than a day after the original ''Year Zero '' promo leak occurred (, yearzero.nin.com was updated on April 4, 2007), with a ''listen to year zero'' link that launches a [http://wwwyearzero.nin-thespiral.com/ ninFLJoi4gjw2f/player.comhtml flash player] responded by putting a streaming the entire album. ([http://www.portraitofdecay.com/yearzero.nin-thespiral.com/FLJoi4gjw2f/playerindex-be.html flash player] containing the entire Year Zero album on the top of yearzero.nin.com] archived on 2007.04.04 with working flash player.)
=== '''fuzz.flv ==='''When listening to the album in this player, occasionally the image would flicker and become fuzzy for a few seconds before returning to normal. [[User:Disorganized|Disorganized]] decompiled the flash file and found a file called fuzz.flv containing the various flickering images. So far, one image of a silhouetted figure standing has been found. It appears to look similar to the image of Trent on the ''[[Beside You In Time (halo)|Beside You In Time]]'' DVD cover. It is also present in the Temporary Internet Files Folder but resembles an zoomed in appearance of 'The Presence ' from the ''Year Zero '' trailer.
Upon further tinkering with the fuzz.flv image, Several other images have been found. Two of which occur on the black bar banner occurring at the beginning and end of the short video file. They both appear to have lettering and/or a phrase written through the middle of the bar. Also a blue clip of the file showcases a darker human like figure, also could be interpreted as 'The Presence'.
=== '''Mr. Brightside ==='''[[User:Disorganized|Disorganized]] also found that, upon decompiling the flash file, the words "Mr. Brightside" appear in the track listing. Speculation suggests that this could have possibly been the name of the scrapped bonus track for the Japan release of ''Year Zero''. ===Multitrack Files===Multitrack copies of the songs "Survivalism", "The Beginning Of The End", "Vessel", "Me, I'm Not", "[[Capital G (song)|Capital G]]", "God Given" and "My Violent Heart" have been added to the page in [http://www.apple.com/ilife/garageband/ Garageband] format, and with links to torrents with the songs in raw files to be used in other applications so that fans could remix the song===AIR Flag===An image of an AIR flag was added to the bottom of the page and linked to [[Art_Is_Resistance]], then a resources link was added. ===Wallpapers===''Year Zero'' and themed wallpapers have been made available to download in various sizes as zip files. ===Resources Link===http://yearzero.nin.com/resources/index.html Parent Page: [[Yearzero.nin.com]] Number: There is no known number for this page Background Text: There is no known [[Year_Zero_Banned_Media |Banned media]] for this page '''Discovery'''The link to the resources page eventually appeared on the Yearzero.nin.com page '''Content'''The page design contains two columns  #Press which is self explanatory#Experience which lists [[Open_Source_Resistance |Open Source Resistance]], [[ETS]], and—You guessed it—[[Main_Page |NINWiki]]!
