I was wondering, I'm not sure if you were going to implement the register-to-post thing again, but anywho...
[Idea]
Have a link to a posters maps. It could be easily done, I'll bet.
This way, it would be easier for people to check out other people's maps, right from the forums.
[/idea]
I'm not srue the above idea makes any sense, but I'll gladly clarify for anybody.
Idea: Map links.

I see what you're saying. So then we wouldn't need the link that says: "My maps" in all our sigs?

Yup, good idea. I may add that. The reason I haven't done anythign totally custom like that in the forums yet is because it makes upgrades a real pain in the ass when vBulletin comes out with a new version. My vB license has ended though, so I probably won't be upgrading, in which case I can edit the code without worrying about the changes being overwritten by an upgrade.
I'll consider the idea for the T:V site, and maybe here too. (They'll both use the same user database.)

Rather than placing that automatic link in the sig, why not have it so clicking on a persons Avatar takes you to there info page which includes a "Maps I've done" link. Or just straight to the maps.

I don't see the need to make the user go to an intermediate page before they can get to the list of maps. It would be better just to have the link easily accessible. Clicking the Avatar should go to their profile page though, if it goes anywhere. So, I like the idea of having the Avatar link to the profile, but I think the map link should be available, and obvious, as well.

Well I suppose it could be better under the person's name, but separate it a little, and maybe make it bold, or something, just for it to stand out a little.
