Building a community

Hi!

Hello. I have now started to build my own community. And I have some questions on the database.

For the users to login I use the login control and all the users information is stored in the ASPNETDB.MDF database.
In the web.config file I have created some profiles for saving some information about the users (Name, Birth, Town) and so on.

Now. All the users in this community will have their own profile page, Guestbooks ++.

So I was wondering if I should create tables for all features like guestbook, profile pages or should I do this by using Profile (ASP.NET).

How many users does ASPNETDB support?.

I suppose it depends on which server are you running it, Mostly it is limited to database size and is limited to

4 GB maximum database size on SQL Express but no limit in paid versions.

And it probably depends on your system speed to prevent user to wait couple of minutes to login.

And you can always create separate user database for each of your web page if 4GB is too small for you.

Thanks
