What i'm going to use this for...specifically... is to give every member 5 free mb of webspace to do with what they please, and then perhaps allow them more, if they pay for it.. or something along those lines.

Now, I'm curious. are these user directories going to be made when the user signs up? or when they first try to upload something? or what?

So far, The fact that such a hack exists has exceeded my expectations, so believe me, I'm already excited.

The vbulletin version will have mysql support, the stand alone version for developers, mysql will be optional, in both versions, ftp will be option, but you can use ftp instead of php uploading and so on so you wont have to chmod the files to 777 and so on, with the vbulletin one, you can set the web space size they can use per user and per user group, so one could have 5 megs and like you said, they could buy addintional space and you could give them more, also i might intergrate a web account and mysql database creator for web developers so they can esily create accounts for people if they own there own server.

The directories are gonna be made when they go to the upload area and sign up for a upload account, i think having it automaticly create them when they sign up will be a easte of space if there not gonna use it, and the vbulletin version will have template support for easy html editing and editing how it looks so you can intergrate it in your website and gonna have a better mysql logging that keeps track of what users do and so on.
