Default Viewable Pet Pages

I was wondering; at the moment, if you go to click on another user's pet, you get the "you clicked x" page, and when you visit the page again, you don't see the pet at all, you get the "you already clicked x" message.

What if we changed it, so you could see the pet all the time? Maybe have some stats - for example, name, gender, etc. This'll give the pets a more personal feel, and might even increase user interaction - say the page has a link to the owner, so they can be contacted for possible trading, or buying an offspring of that pet? So instead of the basic page we've got now, you would see the pet's profile, with the message you just clicked this pet and gained x credits, or the you have already clicked this pet today message.

This could also lead to mods, or new features, such as having custom descriptions, viewing legacy or family trees, offspring lists or things like that. It would also encourage a bit more user interaction with their own pets, if they knew there was pages for people to admire a hard catch or a particularly good achieved or nice looking pet, especially if you could customize them a bit little with messages or items.

It always irks me that you can't view anything about the pet when you click on them - its not nearly as much fun as seeing stuff about them - dates and names and stuff.

The code is more or less there - on the stats page. We'd just need to move it to the level up page. I know I can do this myself, but I really think it should be a script feature, not a mod.
