The best way to do this is with a profile plugin. THe core comes with a profile plugin that is a basic example. (You can go to the plugin manager and enabl it and see how it works.) You can clone that plugin to a new name and add the fields you want and take out those you don't want. This document explains how they work. http://docs.joomla.org/Creating_a_profile_plugin.
