There is no way this will be ready on monday, and i know that this is alot of work so the current user system will have to work for now and then later we will implement this.
ok first of all think, "myspace"
I would like the users to have alot of control over how thier profile page looks, I would like them to be able to select several different layout styles, and I would like them to be able to control things like the background and some font colors. bear inmind that were not changing the whole page just the center sections. i would like the users to have the ability to post photos and music, make comments about each other and chose whether or not they would like to be included in a search function for dating or not. Of coourse comments would have to be aprrooved by the owner of the profiles page as and editable by the admins and mods if there are problems. So here is what id like to see
user editable fields for pictures.
a comments section that can be aprroved by the owner of the profile
email to the owner if someone posts a message for apprroval
ability for the owner of the profile to alter the layout and look of thier page (ie background of the center section, fonts, font sizes, colors etc.)
other stuff as you think it should be. I would like the users to be able to post alot of text but if they want graphics and stuff then they need to host that offsite. i reccomend imageshack.us they have a nice little plug in we should utilize unless tehere is another host out there that offers more than them.
I want to have the ability to "gag users" for specified length of time. so if a user starts making obscene comments or posts i want to ba bel to shut them up for a specified amount of time. Like wise I want to be able to gag users indefinitely. so the username is used up and they cant post again with that username. i dont want to delete usernames unless i do it from the database. I also wnat to be able to redirect users who goto a certain page to a "this page is has been removed based on the users actions" or "this page is an adult profile continue at your own risk"
Try to think as a user and add things that you think would be really cool for a user to be able to do witht hier page. then think as an admin and make sure you can handle problems efficiently, then think as a host and worry about bandwidth concerns. right now bandwitdth is the least of my problems. |
