Part 3

I said if the author is a member of Gamebanana

Even if the author is a member of Gamebanana, you'd still have to resort to what I said about Part 1 with some people going by different names on this site, as well as some going by similar names.

Instead of a big list of members, why not just enter the GB ID number so its always tied to the member??

Hmm... if ID is used instead if typing the name, this might be better because when the author change name & uPic in his profile, it will also happen in the credits automatically

Then lets just say that the search result may not always show the profile page like I imagined due to several reasons including the one u mentioned, including if the author changes his name in his profile without changing in the credits.

If there are 2 or more very identical name, then the search result should show 2 or more profile page

Part 1 would have a list of way too many members for it to function properly. Not to mention, but some names are similar and will yield multiple results for the authors that would be shown, therefore making it difficult for some to pinpoint who they are looking for. On top of that, some authors go by different names, so they might not be listed in the list of authors you would be looking through.

Part 2 would be a bit redundant and wouldn't really serve much of a purpose. Having their uPic show wouldn't be of any use, nor would having the banana logo next to their name. Sure, it might make it look a bit fancier, but is there really any other point besides that?

Part 3 wouldn't work out. As the system is now, clicking on an author's name in a submission will link a user to a search page where that author's name will be listed in submissions around the site. Having it the way you mentioned it wouldn't work because not all authors actually have an account on this site to my knowledge. Having the name link to their profile would be useless if the account doesn't exist.
