    Would it be possible to add any extra profile information? Like the way BD had it! Twitter info, FurAffinity info, Tumblr/Blog info, Species info, etc etc.

    It would be neat if the avatars could be a smidge bigger as well? I mean small ones are great and all, but some of the ones around the forums I've noticed are super tiny and I can't make out the details. :<

    Bigger avatars would be nice, if they don't resize them to the max like they do now.

    I don't really want bigger avatars. You can already click them and expand the picture and they're nice and out of the way while conveying the point ATM

    I think it needs Tumblr, Twitter, FA, Species, and Skype

    Hm.. You know, that's actually true! I keep forgetting that you can actually expand the picture by clicking on it. Good point! I think a 150x150 would be ideal, though. Because even then your icon has lost quite a bit of quality. :<

    But yes, also a Skype info would be awesome! Not sure if I would like to see the age/gender/etc like it does on BD currently or not. I love the minimalistic profile info as it is now when posting, but it is nice to see that little extra bit of info.

    Yeah, I wanted to make a post about the "gender" selection. Yes, male, female and unspecified. Now those that don't fit into the binary system COULD choose unspecified, but I know some would like others to know where they stand or at least feel make there identity is not unrepresented. Minor tweak I would think.
    I'm not saying create one for every single gender identity. You could have a box for "Other" and an optional box next to it for them to list what their identity is.

    Or, one could even do like BD has it--where you can enter in your own gender! Sorta just like how I have a catface typed in because I'm a clueless fuck. That would make it super helpful! Then, don't have to worry about making a drop down menu for everything imaginable, but can still cater to their needs!

    Add a gender/pronouns thing that people can fill in themselves. And make it show next to their posts if that's possible

    I really like expanding the profile section. That was one of the things I liked about BD's forum. Lots of profile custom stuff.

    Neat idea. Just make only the most important info show on the left side of posts - gender, location, maybe age, those kind of things. Rest could be looked up on full profile view.

    I agree! I always like being able to see it right there when someone posts, versus having to click to see stuff. It makes it easier for me so I can reference stuff or use the right pronouns!
