Is there anyway to be able to automatically create MySQL databases everytime someone registers an account or similar?

Why would you want to create a new database every time some one registers?

Why not just insert a new row for each person. Creating a new database everytime some one new comes all is silly. Just insert a new row of information for the new person.

Or to the maximum, try to create new tables for each user, of course that too is silly.

Just have your registration script connect to your database and run a CREATE TABLE command.

If you are creating a new table to hold each users information, you are not designing a very efficient database. There aren't many reasons I can think of for creating a new table, instead of just having a table with user info and inserting a new record there.
