1. My understanding is people are only allowed to speak english on this website. So what I suggest is adding somewhere to SEN's FAQ and to the welcome forum is google's translation tool (: http://www.google.com/language_tools ). Although the tool isn't perfect, it can translate german, french, spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and many more. This way, people who don't speak english very well can get on here and ask questions.
2. The picture in the middle of SEN's header can get boring after a while (but I still like it!) Why not make that picture rotate (randomly?) like the ones seen in the top right hand corner at www.starcraft.org . Please note: you have to wait a certain amount of time before the picture changes there.
3. How about changing "<insert how many new PMs you have here> new messages" to a drop down menu similar to the other drop down menus we have. This way I can compose a new PM sooner, or something.
4. Add stuff to the statics page such as, how many users have posts under x amount of posts and topics. Also add who has moved the most topics in a certain amount of time.
5. Maybe make a user have to log in two times within a certain amount of time of creating you're account in order to keep their account. I know a few people on here who joined just because they could join. They haven't made any topics, posts, nor have they made a single shout.
6. Lets suppose I want to search for a post that yoshi made. I don't remember what the topic is called, nor do I remember where it was located. He has at least 2,559 posts. (I don't know about you, but I don't want to spend more than 2 hours searching for this.) Why not make a feature that allows me to search for a post that someone made in a forum? If you don't get what I am trying to say, here is an example: (Note, you may have to register.) Search form: http://cboard.cprogramming.com/search.php . Search result (when I searched "-ken-"'s name for "carbon"): http://cboard.cprogramming.com/search.php?searchid=134086 . I guess you could call this kind of search "advanced search".
Although this next one isn't a suggestion, It is a question since I didn't see it anywhere in SEN's faq.
1. I have a friend who is interest in learning how to make maps. Sometimes he comes over here. I have recommended that he joins this website. So, lets say he joins SEN, comes over here, and logs in under his own account. WOuld he and I get a warning (or worse) than that? I have a digital camera that can be used as a webcam, so would we get a warn level (or worse) unless we proved that we are two different people?

1. We're english only. People can use translators anyway if they really wanted to so scrap that.
2. That consumes a lot of bandwidth. If you want to see cool little images instead of downloading and submitting maps, please correct me.
3. The current system is fine... thank you. An extra click isn't going to kill you, plus when you have new pms... dont you want to SEE the pms?
4. We have most admin/moderator uses in admincp, but its more dependant on time been here. No point in having that. It'll encourage our moderators to do more moderating where it isn't needed.
5. It takes up a couple of bytes in our database. Doesn't matter to me.
6. You mean something like this?

Some people don't know where to find translating tools, thus their ability to use SEN is greatly reduced. But it is to you I guess if you want to add this feature...

WHOA!
Now that is what I am talking about! Is that new? because I haven't seen it before. (I hope I didn't miss it when I looked for it 
) If it is new, will it be added somewhere? Or is this a feature that regular members like me technically aren't supposed to get access to?ADDITION:
thanks for replying yoshi

1. Its more annoying to have the translating tool on the page for maybe the one or two people who actually use it then for them to figure it out for themselves. Hey, the lead korean mapping site doesn't give ME a translator 
http://www.mapside.net
2. Its not new. Just click "more options".

It's been here since v4 came out, and if I'm not mistaking I think v3 also had that.

Every version of invision since the beginning had it.
