Resource Passwords bug

I spent a few hours last week trying to get to the bottom of some problems with the site (and found a few more in the process).

Some involved upgrading site security, which almost always breaks things in unexpected ways (e.g. the Arena was temporarily inaccessible, and I could no longer delete images).
Those glitches are now sorted. A small issue with some areas of the site complaining to logged-in members with spaces in their usernames is now resolved.

There's an ongoing issue with the Museum - if you upload more than one image, no images show. Work on that is in progress.
The mobile page menus (Museum, Archive) are broken. Still trying to figure that one out.

A long remaining issue is with new subscriptions to the Arena. This has to be requested by email and done manually, until I migrate all the Arena contents to the new system (which is a major task).

The new site member registration system has eliminated 99.9% of all Spammers. @&@

Your time seems to be increasingly taken up more and more by addressing SNAFUs and Gremlins.
Your hard work is appreciated and recognised.

The mobile menu issue is fixed but now there's a problem with members requesting Resource Passwords. The auto-generated email fails to tell us which resource you want. !!JUNK!!
Until I fix this, please send requests via this form.
