And, I might take you up on that CSS offer :-)
Cheers, Magnus
P.S.: Does anyone know a way to easily allow Commons admins access to CISS (and restrict everyone else)? IMHO everyone should be able to have a look, but when it comes to uploading, we might want to limit this, otherwise it's completely anonymous mail-and-upload spam...
The obvious solution is user names and password, but that can't happen with the toolserver, so how about this: *Admin puts md5 or sha sum of some secret word on there userpage (possibly in a nice userbox, or maybe even display:none; so it doesn't interfere with anything. Could use js to make generating it simple as type in word, and out plops sum) *Users use that secret word along with there username to log in to the tool.
Would that work?
