Didn't think of that. I likeLittleAtari wrote:Honestly, I'm all for profiles with some custom settings. Because the website still needs to look organized and such, things should still be restricted. For instance, in order to avoid profiles with weird and unreadable colors, we should be allowed to choose from color schemes or something.
Still, I think everyone needs to take a step back and think about how these custom profiles will look with the current site layout. Honestly, how much can you do with how the page is. The layout changes for each user that comes to your page because of which ever menus they may have collapsed. There is no set limit on how long a page is because all the videos are on one long list. The right side of the page also has quite a bit of info on it. On top of all this, the site itself does not have a simplified color scheme. Most of the time, things like custom colors will clash with the site's look. On Youtube, you've got four basic colors and some slight variants of it. Two of which, are black and white. So, on a place like Youtube, there is a lot more room to customize things for the users because the site itself simplified.
Some things that I can see being possible with how the site looks now are:
Custom Color Themes
- This can be done three ways.
1) Make it so that people can choose a color scheme for their page that people will see when they come to their page
2) Let users choose the color scheme that they want to view the entire site in.
3) A mix of both of the above. User chooses color scheme to view site in and then the color scheme switches when they go to a profile with custom settings
Customizing what is shown on the profile
- Basically, a user can choose what information people can see on their profile. Give users the option to hide things like their opinion stats, usefulness, journal, etc.
- Give users a 'Top Videos' option so that only a certain amount of videos chosen by the user display at first and then an option to see all videos.
- Option to hide favorite videos and anime. Some of us like to have the lists for our own references and dont feel like displaying it on out page.
This is all I can think of from a design stand point without changing how the site looks that much. I really dont even know how feasible this is from a programing perspective.

Re: Custom Org Profiles?
If the Org doesn't allow us to be able to change our profiles to look like MySpace pages or YouTube channels, I'm okay with that.
