Drupal is up and running but how do I ...?

ability to administer users, but not access controls

I need to give a few trusted users the ability to administer users. However, I do not want them to have the ability to change the access controls. Enabling "administer users" allows them to do both. It seems to me there needs to be another permission called "administer access control."

I can of course simply tell the trusted users not to touch "access control", but needless to say this is not ideal.

Is there a way to achieve this without hacking user.module and adding another permission?

Different Drupal views for Partially Sighted users

I am putting together a web site that will be used both by readers who have partial sight and people who are colour blind.

I would like to have a couple of Icons on the Home Page that they can click on to swtich the look and feel of the site so they can read it more easily - larger text and almost inverted colour schemas.

What's the best way to instigate this - switch the theme or map in a different CSS?
And if so how do I go about this.

With many thanks,

Use existing location when creating an event? (Location and/or Event module)

Is there any way to get Drupal to let me choose a location that I've used in the past for an event?

I use the event and location modules, as well as the rsvp module on my site for maintaining an event calendar, and overall it's fine. However, one thing that really gets me, is having to type in all the location information for a place I've already had events at.

I want "more" link in "Recent blog posts" block to do something different

Drupalers,

I'm using the built-in blog module and the built-in "Recent blog posts" block. At the bottom of the list of recent blog posts there is a "more" link. It takes you to: /blog . At my site that is useless since that is essentially what is promoted to the home page anyway since most of the content is blog entries.

What I'd like the "more" link to do is show more titles of blog posts -- for the recent blog posts block to expand to show more blog post titles.

Thanks for the help.
