 		Okay, my design hat is now on. Here is the list of things I'm thinking of adding for User-profiles for the new site:

1) Name
2) Alias
3) Location
4) Skill set (artist, programmer, sound engineer, etc.)
5) Languages/Tools known
6) Interests
7) Actively looking to join a team?

I'm sure there are many other things you guy's wanna know...so spring it at me. One thing, though, CAN'T ask for a person's age. I don't want to have to deal with all the COPPA rules, so I'm leaving that out. If you need to know the person's age, you'll need to take that up with the invdividual...sorry

Thanks!

 		Avatar image - something like a 80x80 jpeg. And if people don't have one of their own, a selection of pre-set images. (see developium)

 		if person would be interested in writing open source games, or if would be interested in joining a company (perhaps in the future), and if so, in how many years time.

is the person an ideas person, or "give me idea, i'll program it" type?
engine or game or levels?
details or big picture?
ever finished a game?
ever finished a project?
self opinion (text field)

just some things i think could be interesting.

 		What about "How many hours a week they can devote to a project?"
That will give an indication of what workload they can handle.

8) Actively forming a team and need these people with skillsets of
a) art (2d or 3d or both)
b) sound
c) music (original scores willing to contribute, remix, whatever)
d) programming
e) quality testing (on what machine type)
f) need x hour time commitment per month (I think Revelator already had that one).

You caught me Angel! Yes, Krylar, story generating stud should be a category under my new proposal. I hadn't listed it because I have the bulk of the story done but actually could use some fleshing out and advice!
