pic, display name, and can friend request or message, if they are not approved
friends of the private user)

page on other sites. Opt-in setting - default is login required to view your
public profile page.
* CSRF cookie fix.
* Updated FAQ & Privacy pages.
* Add ability to (un)subscribe from comment threads on Forums and Photos.
* Creating a forum post, replying to a post or adding a comment to a photo
automatically subscribes you to be notified when somebody else adds a
comment to the thing later.
* At the top of each comment thread is a link to disable or re-enable your
subscription. You can join a subscription without even needing to comment.
If you click to disable notifications, they stay disabled even if you
add another comment later.
Adds initial code for basically functional forums:
* Forums landing page shows hard-coded list of Categories along with any
forums in the DB that use those categories.
* Admin: Create, Edit forums and view forums you own or have admin rights
to modify.
* Landing page forums list shows the title/description and dynamic count of
number of Topics and total number of Posts in each forum. TODO: distinct
count of Users who posted in each forum.
* Board Index page shows list of Threads (posts) with a Replies count and
Views count on each thread.
* Thread view is basically an array of Comments. Users can post, edit and
delete (their own) comments. Deleting the first comment removes the
entire Thread - the thread points to a first Comment to provide its body.
* Reply and Quote-Reply options working.
