Changing the font color to black (or at least a darker gray) is my main wish.  But I don't want to sound ungrateful -- it was so nice of you to build this playground for us!

He said everything. Also, can you do that status-thingy? Like, forum Thor, skald, Grade-A Blessed Feline...

You can see above my avatar, there's a thing that says "Oh, look, a custom title!"  I put that up there to show everybody that there's a location you can edit in your profile settings.  You can give yourself a little title or status or something; it's purely nominal, and doesn't really affect anything, but it is fun.  You can also add things like pictures or short bits of text in your signature, if you feel like it.  Try playing around with the profile settings for a bit, and see what you can come up with.

Hi, Nimphy. If the "He" in "He said it all" = me, I'm actually female.   :D 
In the real world, I get that a lot too because I have a masculine first name.  Even when I use its more feminine-sounding nickname, people mispronounce it.  At Starbucks, I just tell them "Ann."
