Would it be possible for boards to allow this? I'm a member of another forum which runs vBulletin and it's possible to modify the look of your profile page's fonts, text colour, BG image etc. I don't know if it's an addon on vB or if it's available as standard but it would be cool imo Maybe even allow it for subscribers…

Maybe even allow it for subscribers only.. it would be another selling point.

What do you think?

It's turned off to maintain a relatively uniform "look" across the site for viewers. We don't want to be bebo/myspace, etc!

Fair point, but it's the twats using those sites that make them what they are.

Thanks anyway =p

Aye, but what makes the twats use those sites?

I don't have anything more than anecdotal evidence anyway, it was pondered at the time and we figured the potential cons outweighed the potential pros. Not saying never, just not on the cards at the mo'!
