    LinkinPark.com has been updated with an ambiguous new flash page. It appears you have to connect to twitter through their homepage, which will allow you to enter a message with the #ATHOUSANDSUNS hashtag, which once entered, plays a very brief sound bite of what could be "The Catalyst" along with the message: "Thank you for helping me. I will arrive soon", with each individual tweet revealing a single pixel of a collective image.

    Help reveal the image by heading to linkinpark.com now and entering a tweet!

    Update: Several people have posted this image in the comments and have proudly used it as proof they have solved the puzzle. However, this is incorrect. While this is indeed what the dots are forming...it has now been stated through several sources that the image there is NOT what fans are "setting free". It was put there deliberately, as a way to outsmart people who cheat and is not the solution to this challenge. We will not know what we are going to receive until all dots are filled, so please keep tweeting through linkinpark.com. You can tweet more than once!

    So when you tweet something, it lets you into another flash page with an empty window...

    Maybe you have to tweet the right thing?

    Ah ha!

    Ok, so you click the period, and then you tweet something.

    The more people tweet, the more dots show up. Maybe it will create a picture or message.

    When you tweet, a sound comes up. Sound like part of "The Catalyst", the part when Chester's voice.

    We just need to keep on tweeting over and over again. And get as many people to join in.

    Easy enough.

    Every "dot" that appears in the flash image seems to be part of the album cover!! So the more people tweet using that application on their page, the quicker the album cover could be revealed!!

    I'm 99.999% sure!!

    I'd just like to say that the way this album is being promoted is simply genius.

    It's fun AND effective.

    Looks like with every new tweet someone makes, a pixel appears on the page. I am guessing once all the pixels are in place it will reveal an image. Possibly the album cover? I am excited to find out!

    Beat me to it >_<

    I don't think tweeting repeatedly is doing anything. I think each twitter account is assigned its own pixel the first time they tweet. Every time I do it, the same pixel is shown for my username.

    I just realized that if you hover over a dot, it shows what the tweet was that made that dot. It also means I'm wasting my time tweeting this over and over again. Only one tweet per account!
