Hi Oz

You can use the backshed's forums search button to find stories by author. Just type in the forum members username ( or part thereof ) and select to search in username option. Also you can browse the member list and find their stories that way.
It does treat files differently to Scoop. Each uploaded file has a date stampe added to the file name, making it unique, eg one of your files was renamed to 2008-08-02_184615_innerskid.jpg. If its an image, the software then resizes it to 500 pixels wide.
Unfortunately there is no "user file's" page as such, as you said, though this is something I could add in the future if there's enough interrest in it.

Thanks Glen, It's all true, but you cannot browse through a persons stories...
Sometimes I wish to see a compilation of material from a particular contributor because they do interesting things, or explain difficult concepts easily, or more to the point just to see what they have gotten up to.

Search engines are fine, but you need to have something to search for. The interesting things just seem to crop up. Google search of here or backshed will achieve the same result, but with scoop I can go and see all the projects of say jacquesm or zubbly or a host of other talented builders.... just to get ideas, rather than research a topic.

Not knocking, just pointing out the salient differences for me.

or is there a way to do it, but I just haven't found it.
