Anyone else see this on the sidebar, if not I'll take a pic.

ya NS is implementing the change of putting a direct link to your user page in the sidebar
Makes sense. Should box it up, like the rest.

Yup, it's there...
As if you could forget your user name... unless you're multi, but what's the point ?

Ah, link to user page... that... umm, yeah, makes some sense. Saves you two clicks, making it a one-click instead of three-clicks deal :)
It should have YOUR NAME and Home beside it. Then free up some room for the top bar: Help!, Settings, Logout.

I have no idea what you guys are talking about... I just don't see it. Where exactly is the link?

Hit refresh. You'll see it in the sideframe.

Nearly 4 years since I asked for this. I stopped asking when I had the Greasemonkey script going on, and then I forgot all about it to be honest. But this is a nice little change.
Thanks!!

This is the single greatest feature addition in all of CB history.

It is insanely pleasing. I've never understood why it wasn't there in the first place though.
Could I request that the line above and under my name is boxed like the rest of the sidebar?
and the My user page is also now just above user and clan statistics on the home page

I am so glad to have this.
Of course, this means fewer posts from me, as I'm in the habit of posting so that my name appears on the Home page where I can click it. *grins*

Thank you, NS. Really.
My only concern is that with my browser, I can't use the dropdown menus for Community/forums because I can't see the bottom options. If the area the link takes up could be reduced (Or livened up, actually. Bit bare, but small complaint) would be nice.
But I'm more than willing to have none of those things just for the link itself.
Thanks again.
wow that only took 4 years :)
