[support] How to provide users with personal homepages?

[Benjamin Melançon]

Hi Leo,

That's a good question.  I wish I had a better answer; maybe someone else
will.

Enable avatars, of course, for a start.

It would also be pretty easy to make a custom block that shows a random
picture or pictures from a user's photo gallery and only displays on their
user/## page, another block that does the same with their most recent blog
entry, etc.

I don't know of any module for user pages that users customize themselves,
though.  I might eventually find the time to put the above blocks into a
simple module (if your project has a budget, someone else at Agaric will
probably be able to make time!).  It would still require customizing the
theme to make the place for the blocks.  I'd be interested in a report back
on what you've found out there, or what you think of throwing blocks onto
the user page.
