personal home page, but you should also of course, look at blogs. Use bio with
the views module to provide an index of users with the personal home page.

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Ben, thanks for your message!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Unfortunately, no one else has replied to my
question about personal homepages in Drupal. That's quite intriguing, isn't it?
:(</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anyway, I'm kind of curious about your block-page
idea, but I'm not sure I could visualize it. Would it be possible for your page
to be the displayed whenever one goes to a user account (and leave the existing
profile as a link on the side)? For me, a page with a large text area that
accepted html links and allowed users to include images would be more than good!
If that page could be edited using tinymce or similar would be even better! What
do you think?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Hi Leo,<BR><BR>That's a good question. I wish I had a
better answer; maybe someone else will.<BR><BR>Enable avatars, of course, for
a start.<BR><BR>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.<BR><BR>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.<BR><BR>- ben<BR><BR><A
