Hi John,

In thinking through this, it seems that this is doable, but may be somewhat complex as a solution. I would use a parent portal to accomplish www.mysite and use a Friendly URL scheme to map incoming URL request (www.mysite.com/johnFrank) to a page (www.mysite/tabid/25/default.aspx, which is the page created by johnFrank.  For a registered user to be able to create a page, they would need to  have access to the admin menu (may not be desirable), specifically the tabs page. For them to be able to style a page (not add modules), they would need to be allowed to either modify existing css files or upload new skins. I'm  not sure how to accomplish this on a per registered user basis unless all users were assigned to a customized user group with specific permissions.  The next thing I would explore is the use of templates to automate much of what I have mentioned. These are just my ideas about thinking through what you're trying to accomplish.  I am not seasoned at this so if anybody else wants to jump in and correct my thinking or point to a different strategy, I would appreciate the opportunity to learn more.
