   I want to create a nice author listing page. Here is, in my opinion, the easiest way to do it, although correct me if there's an easier way. I already have styled my individual author pages to a point where I like the way they look. So here's what I'd like to do to make the full listing.

   Start with a list (array?) of user ID's. So if I wanted the author page to include user1, then user2, then user 3, I'd put those in there. From there, I guess there'd need to be some type of loop where it would keep running a script for each user ID. Since I already have the code to style the user info, there's no extra effort for that.

   Would anyone be willing to help me out? Thanks in advance!

   From notes:
   

   <?php
   //list users of blog
   $blogusers = get_users_of_blog();
   if ($blogusers) {
   foreach ($blogusers as $bloguser) {
   $user = get_userdata($bloguser->user_id);
   //echo "<pre>"; print_r($user); echo "</pre>";
   echo 'User ID ' . $user->ID . ' ' . $user->user_firstname . ' ' . $user->user_lastname ;
   }
   }
   ?>

   Thank you so much. With the basic structure you gave me, I was able to create a great staff page. (http://www.academicperspective.com/staff/)

   Thanks again, I really owe you one!

   A walkthrough would be very nice...
