THERE ARE SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH FORMATTING, INCLUDING INCONSISTENCIES WITH THE MACINTOSH/IBM COMPATABLE CHARACTER FONT MAPS DEFAULTING SHIT OUT ALL OVER THE PLACE

PLUS, A TOTAL OVERHAUL WOULD BE REQUIRED SO THAT THERE WOULD BE A 'CONCRETE PHANTOM' USERNAME THAT WOULD SOMEHOW HAVE TO BE INCORPORATED INTO A 'SHOWN SCREEN' USERNAME...THE PHOTO GALLERIES AND TWW MAIL WOULD GET BUCK NUTTY

so what makes the difference between status name a concrete name? what I mean is, how come status name can be changed without a problem, along with rolling post count? Is it becuase they are subidentities?

if thats the case, i wonder why AIM can do it...probably a better platform or something. at any rate, at least I'll learn something. tell me if you know.

It'd be easy to index things according to our user numbers instead of our displayed usernames.

Oops.

yeah if all of TWW went by numbers everything would be great but it appears that unfortunately the Photo Galleries don't. User Info does. Joe or CrazyJ: I'm learning right now about database structure and server side scripting (MySQL and PHP) but why did you not have the folders created by usernumber and not username? It seems more consistent. Just wondering if there was some definitive advantage to doing it that way or if it was just a preference.
