AIM, MSN, Skype can all be removed by deleting the image that it uses. Go to your admin panel > display > pictures and colors > find the images > leave the URL blank.

I don't think you can hide usernames, and I am not quite understanding what you mean by Date of Birth.

Anyway, for someone to join an online community they must be of 13 years or older.

I have several members that are 12 and I have them fill out the COPPA form to join. I would like to know how to remove the option of putting the year your where born. So its not visible to anyone

Is there a way that since a lot of people have myspace and facebook to replace the aim, msn, skype to say myspace or facebook and then add the clickable link like these have? If so how would that be done?
