Suggested Profile Page Features: Just a Few Small Things...

First of all, I beg of you, do NOT allow people to change the look of their profile pages. Consistency is a lovely thing, and I wouldn't want to see this well-designed site degenerate into a myspace-esque clusterf@%k of colors and broken layouts that will force me to gouge my eyes out. Allowing for the addition of a blogmast or something like that is fine, but for the love of god, don't let people at the css!!!

As for new features...

- As others have said, fields for Gamertag / Wii code / Steam ID, etc would be nice.
- A few fields to add personal web links would also be welcome.
- And finally, a redesign of the way reviews and such are displayed is necessary. You should just display the titles of the latest added reviews (with an option to expand each one), rather than include the entire text of each one all on one page. As it is now, page length is a serious issue... and it just doesn't look very good.

Oh, and I also noticed that on the the profile pages, user names seem to automatically be capitalized. But some users (like me) would prefer that their names appear in the exact case in which they were originally entered. I know it's a trivial thing, but why force all names to start with a capital if that's not the way they were entered? Most of the other pages on the site display the names correctly, so this should be a simple fix.

Thanks for listening!

Here here! I agree full-heartedly. (Sorry it took me so long to check this out, man.) I especially want the friend code etc. set up... that would be nice. Then maybe I'd have people to play games with. =b
