Question regarding photo galleries and categories

Using Jamroom

You could always add a 'gallery_category' field using the Form Designer then modify the Gallery templates to suit (look at the Blog templates to see how they handle categories, or maybe the Audio templates where they handle 'audio_album' (same principle))

Who determines when a profile is active or not active? (and related questions)

Using Jamroom

Presumably you have Jamroom set up to approve new signups? In that case, new users will get an email advising them of the situation, then another when you approve/disapprove them.

Hi - Checkout any email templates in the modules. You'll be able to translate the text there (use the module template editor for this so that they are not overwritten on updates).
Jamroom error messages are hard coded in english.
Hope that helps

Policing inappropriate content

Using Jamroom

The 'Banned' module can catch all inappropriate words in any uploaded text strings.
Alternatively, just set item quotas for Appove on Create/Update

Membership/Profile page to be in grid format

Design and Skin Customization

What skin are you using?
On a lot of our skins the gallery/image page is like that so you could take those image template(s) and use them as a base for a similar profile page, maybe just changing any language strings, jrGallery to jrProfile and smarty variable calls - $item.gallery.xxxx => $item.profile_yyyy
That may be a simplistic description of what to do, but its the way I'd approach it.

I'm a n00b, and need some help with basic instllation questions..

Installation and Configuration

http://entzyme.com/jamroom takes me to http://www.names.co.uk/create-a-website/cloudsite as well.

Have you set the domain DNS to point to your Jamroom server? Do that and wait a few hours and all should be good. In the meantime check your email from the installation package (Softiculous?) - There might be a 'temporary URL' you can use to access the site whilst waiting for the DNS to propagate.

If the Integrity Check keeps crashing something is seriously wrong. Look in your error and debug logs and let us know what is there as a result of the crash.

Ok so what do i do first and what to expect?

Using Jamroom

Yes, Jamroom supports subscriptions using the FoxyCart eCommerce module. Subscribed members will be in their own quota(s) that can then be used to give them unique functionality and access.
Adult content is also ok and has been discussed here recently. See this thread for our comments on it - https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/jamroom-hosting/27193/qustion-about-what-type-of-site-content-is-allowed-on-jamroom-hosting
