1. Check out my friend Justin Kistner's profile mod on MySpace. Making it easier to do things like that is one thing I'd change.

2. Marshall, WOW. That is nice. First thing I'd do: hire your friend. That's clean.

3. Thanks for the compliment! I've got a laundry list of things I'd like to change about MySpace. To make profile customization easier it would be nice if MySpace stuck to standards compliant code. It would also be nice if i could use an external stylesheet. Perhaps most annoying is that the use IDs but if you put a "#" symbol in, it strips it once you hit save. How can I refer to an element's ID to stylize it if you strip out # symbols? The best way to customize your profile right now is to basically obfuscate all of MySpace's code and replace it with your own.

4. Also dropping by to leave you compliments Justin. I'm an avid MySpace user, but mostly for reasons of research into why people just click with the site than anything else.

But what an improvement you've made to their profile system! Easily the best one that I've seen on the site, and really setting the bar high for the profile modification system I'm developing on my site.

5. Justin, I love your design. Adding complete style sheet control is one of the things that erks me the most about xxSpace. I spent two years there and left shortly after the News Corp sale. I am now working on other projects. You'll see them in the new year. Your collective input as to what you would like to see changed would be very welcomed.
