Automatic approval of background images and photos

Please help! When I have a new member join, I want them to have to verify their email address and then they are approved. I don't want to have to approve and activate everything the do like change background images or add photos. I just can't seem to find the right combination of settings to get this to work right. Where do I set it so they can have their images automatically approved? Sorry, I'm sure it is obvious. Thanks!
