==What should our Main Page look like?==
I'd like to get some input on what the Main Page should be.  I'm thinking we should do something similar to what Wikipedia does, which would be to have a featured article, a pic of the day and some other things like that.  Of course with hardly a fraction of the content that Wikipedia has, I think that changing things on the Main Page once a week would be good. We should also leave links to the key sections of the wiki (gallery, stories, articles) on the front page to act as a sort of table of contents.  What does everybody think about that?

Hey guys. I'm going to take this opportunity to officially state my support of using the following picture as a frontpage, even if only on rotation. Keep in mind that I've already brought this up to Robotman and he prefers the Bionic Woman fembot to the Austin Powers fembot. It has the same basic aesthetic features with cleaner picture clarity- and more cleavage! :D

What should our Main Page look like?

On Fembot Central, the setting that requires admin approval for new accounts (to prevent spammers from filling up the board with junk) also makes it necessary for admins to re-approve accounts that have certain details changed. There isn't anything that can be done about that. There is a list of deactivated accounts that Kishin and I can see, and yours appeared there this morning. It's activated now, btw. I've never seen your account appear on the deactivated list before. I'm not sure I know what you're referring to about uploading a text file to an FTP server, but I do remember several years ago there was a problem with reactivating certain accounts after Fembot Central had been down and returned. Back then, KOS-MOS wasn't able to find a solution for the problem, and the affected users had to create new accounts.
