Topic: User name limit and color variating.

I have two questions, first, is it possible to set it so only 1 character is required for a username rather than 2, and, I saw on Total Spore that they have variating colors (light grey, dark grey, light grey, dark grey) on both the main forum page, and on the pages that display the list of topics. I was able to get variating colors in the actual threads, but I want variating colors on the main forum page and the pages that display topics. How does one go about doing this? I tried things like roweven and rowodd, but they didn't do anything.

Re: User name limit and color variating.

Usernames: Yes, it just involves editing the code
Alternating colors: This should help

What exactly do I edit? Surely, it can't be difficult.

register.php, profile.php, post.php, anywhere where a username is set and strlen is used to check the length.
