So there have been some questions about the user profiles and how to get them working. I thought it might be helpful to perhaps create a bit of a walk through on how to get them set up.

After you login to the site, the first page that comes up is your user profile. If your profile is not set up yet, your profile will say something like, "%profilenode" at the top. Right under "%profilenode" there are a few tabs.

The tabs are:
--edit account - used to change profile picture, password, email address, user name
--user profile - this is where you will want to add any other information about yourself
--contact - this is used so people can email you without you giving out your email address. In order to set up your user profile, you will want to click on the "user profile" tab.

The only field that is required is the "Profile Title" field. If this field is not filled out, the profile will NOT display until that field has something in it. Once "profile title" has something filled in, you can fill in the other fields and all of the information will display properly.

Here is a screen shot to help illustrate what tab needs to be clicked:
