If we give you one background or font color, can we change it ourselves later?

No, you'll still have to go through Kass. The only thing you can change yourself is your background-image and only if you uploaded it to somewhere you could access (and Kass linked to it instead of uploading it to the MT server).

Actually, all authors on the Metaverse have upload privileges to the ATDP server. Just click "Go to MT" in the admin box, and "Upload File" in the sidebar. Remember where you upload it, and you can always overwrite it later.

Oh...?

If you do that, make sure you've got the name correct though.

That does NOT mean, however, that an MT user/account can store 'secret' files on the ATDP MT server. Such as MP3s, movies, and the like. They will be discovered, by bots and by me. And when it does, the account dies. Seriously. ;p

I flog this half-dead horse just as a reminder, as students have tried to take advantage over the years, and use the ATDP server as a repository (temporary or otherwise) of their contraband. Not gonna work. And all it takes is one strike... this ain't major league baseball. ::chuckle::

Yeah, uh... I gave privs for that in case we ended up doing things like rotating banners... so that people didn't have to send me their banners all the time... but I realize that it's kind of tricky to remember what is already in there... maybe I should make a folder specifically for people to upload images to and make the directory viewable... hrm.
