Hi!

Okay, this will do the trick. Now we need to find a way to modify the local
upload/url into a link to commons.

That;a good thing , too :)

This is going to happen only the first time for frequent users, if they
check the box to mantain the login active. Anyway, it will be*much* better
when it won't happen at all.

LOL I'll be *very* happy when they will at least learn how to use their own
grammar and write locatives, datives and articles in such a way that one can
read them... I guess categories will be really the last of their worries,
for the time being. Yet, in time they will learn, if we can manage to
translate the titles.

We live in a multilinguistic environment, so personal relations are their
own business. So far it's not many of them using personal pages at all.
Piedmontese people tend to be shy :))

See you in private
