I have 3 websites in a specific niche. 3 different domians. Is it possible to let one user login/create account on one oxwall site and be able to login with same credentials on the other 2 without having to create new accounts on each site?

It is possible. However this requires custom code modifications. The best option is to customize the code to open different templates for different domain names. However if you are planning to have newsfeed on your sites and to send email notifications, then only one URLs will be used within the feeds or notifications.
Oxwall was not originally built to use one database for several domain names, so there might be other peculiarities.
If you explain in details your project, I will check with developers what else can be done. You can email PM me more details, instead of posting them here if you would like to.

actually it is easier than that if you don't mind sharing the database same database with all 3 this means images users upload etc then I can walk you through however you will need to use cloud to achieve this.When I say cloud I mean host all static files on amazon or rackspace like listed in oxwall documentation I can set up and show you a demo just let me know also you will have to follow w a specific way to run updates and add new plugins

You could do this easily by just using the same database details in the config.php file of all your domains. You can have 3 different themes too if you wish. Key here is the config.php file.

worked great. Used the same database for all 3. however, when the names are changed on a domain, all 3 change also...lol
reason I i have highdesertbartering.com, inlandempirebartering.com, and barteringlosangeles.com.
I will just use the same theme and grow them seperately..lol Thanks everyone.

but as I said he will want to use a cloud to store his static files or else the site will try to call up its own ow_userfiles folder

Could you just symlink the ow_userfiles folder if the sites were all on the same server?
