A brief selection of the most frequently asked questions.
How do I upload my photo?
Simply go to 'edit photos' then click the
browse box. Locate the photo on your hard drive then click upload.
Your photo should appear on the screen.
What format should my photo be?
Ideally your photo would be a JPEG or GIF file, but we can convert
your photo from many different formats. But we strongly recommend
you convert your photos to jpeg format before uploading them as
this makes them smaller so its quicker for you.
I've uploaded my photo but it's not showing on my profile page..
Check on your 'edit photos' page, if the picture is showing on there
then the photo is due to be checked. As soon as it has been
checked by one of our administrators it will go live on the
system.
I'm trying to set my photo as the default one, but it won't let me..
In general, any photo that doesn't show what you look like will not
be allowed as default. This also applies to photos that have more
than one person in them or photos that are of a poor
quality.
What are private photos?
Setting your photos to private will hide your photo from everyone except the members on your
buddies list. This way you can decide who you want to see your photos. You have to have
a default photo before you can set your other photos as private.
Some photos are showing censored even after upgrading my account..
This can happen in rare instances where your browser isn't
configured correctly and you never click the log out button
when you have finished. To correct this, simply click
the 'logout' button and log back into your account,
or alternatively change your internet explorer cache settings to
'automatic'.
