Anyone else think, like me, that it would be good if we could enter a few personal details about ourselves (and/or our research) accessible to others by clicking on our name (as you can on friendsreunited)? I did ask the team at Genes once before if this could be done and they said there was no demand!!

Good idea! Maybe the surname would help with other people`s research and details of who we`ve hit a brick wall with. Everyone is so helpful on this site that I`m sure it would be useful. Rosalyn

Excellent suggestion to expand Profile Details,, this would certainly benefit new members & "Newbie" Genealogists such as myself,,,, So G R,, its up to You?

I think it would be a good idea as long as people didn't put stupid things in, just for a "laugh".

It makes good sense--especially as this is a sister site to Friends reunited--as we are often reminded! Maybe we can persuade them with a petition here??

My right profile is better than the left, but I'm up for it.

Brilliant idea Maggie, and seeing that they changed the name to match Friends Reunited, they should make the content similar. Would also be nice to be able to include a photo, again like FR. Darren's photopage is great because you can put on lots of pics, but one on this site would be good. Mandy :)

Totally agree with everyone else's ideas especially Mandy's suggestion of the photo's as you have to jump from one address to another. Come on GR get your act together and listen to what we want as the site is for us and you want to hear our thoughts on what we want. The demand is there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
