I have had that same idea a few times but I don't think it's as practical as having individual templates that users can select from rather than them placing what box where on a per user basis.
I have been keeping the idea of some sort of user selectable features in mind but I just haven't gotten around to that end of things yet. I'm really trying to get all of the major features of a nuke type portal built in and then once that's done I can start to polish things up and add such tweaks for users and whatnot.
btw, I'll be posting an update of 5.0 tonight to work with the Blam Templates Allen created from Bookie's for .classic. I have added back the ability to designate if the news posts should have the username and date displayed too. I have also added in 3 custom pal boxes in which you can add your own html to be displayed on the main page. I haven't made an easy way to add your own html so will work on that later tonight. I have said this before but it just doens't happen... lol this will be the last update for 5.0, everything else I do will be geared for the next major release.
