Issue Summary

one thing I've been pondering is.. all the nodeprofile stuff assumes its a new site
and users go through the registration process to "create" the new userprofile node,
but I'm implementing this for a user-base already 200 people strong.
Is there any way to by-pass the registration process and just have the existing (sigh) profile.module
fields defined as php snippets in the new node-usernodeprofiletype.tpl.php. - (i.e. snippets from userhomepage tutorial on drupal.org.) am I missing functions If I do that? I'm new to php, go easy.. ( ;

and to put in simpler terms, how can a user nodeprofile be created for each user without
them having to do anything like go through a registration process or hit an "add" button.
i.e. existing users that have already registered. none of the nodeprofile sections will be things
that will be filled out on user registration anyways (just things like guestbook etc..)
