If he set it up the way my-eBay works, he could just allow you to have a little HTML file on his disk. You'd submit it similar to how you submit a message. It would just be a text file, probably one file-element block in size, which is like 16-32K. You could have a link to a photo from there, which you'd have to find space for yourself. You'd have freedom to format your page however you want, or to just include text if you didn't want to deal with HTML. It's not a fantastically important feature, but I bet a few people would use it, and if I saw little "me" icons next to people's names I'd probably check them out. bruce
