Hello,
It's possible that the work on profiles as nodes, when combined with cck, will get you some/all of the way there.
At the risk of sounding heretical :) you could also check out elgg -- their short term roadmap includes customizable profile pages and a dashboard widget that allows users to import content from a wide variety of sources.
Cheers,
Bill

Hi Ben, thanks for your message!
Unfortunately, no one else has replied to my question about personal homepages in Drupal. That's quite intriguing, isn't it? :(
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?
Best,
.L.

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. - ben http://AgaricDesign.com/ On 9/13/06, *Leo Burd* <leob@media.mit.edu <mailto:leob@media.mit.edu>> wrote: Hello there, I am creating a website for youth and my users would really like to be able to configure personal webpages with images, links, text, etc. So far, they only have their personal profile page and that's not attractive at all. What modules do people usually recommend for that? Suggestions are very welcome!
