You need to break up the registration like myspace.
force a photo upload into the registration.

you do that everyone has a photo in turn making more users want to sign up to talk to them.

i agree with T3MEDIA, i know i've seen like a "quick register" around the board here, where you just fill in your username, password and email, and everything else is defaulted, maybe you could go off something like that

something to add... maybe like a file share type thing, where someone could upload a song that they want all their friends to have, and all their friends (people added to their list) could download it. Could limit the # of files, to save server space.

I dont think i want my forums to be based around the "myspace" part of it though... i think that would pull a younger demographic. My site is designed for 18-60+ and i don't think the older crowd would want all the lil ones running it.(i know i dont)
