In order to upload an image to your profile:
1. Click on 'images' near the top of your inbox page.
2. Click on the 'upload' button to select your image from your disc/computer.

Once the image appears, create a thumbnail for it by dragging the box over the part of the image you wish to appear and click SAVE. Note that this will NOT crop, resize, or change the final appearance of your image - it just creates a smaller thumbnail image.

You can now select how your image appears on the site by using the checkboxes to the right of it.
-Choose SET AS MAIN if you want it to be your MAIN image. Uncheck it to change your MAIN image to something else.
-Choose RATE if you want your image rated.
-Choose PUBLIC if you want everyone to see the picture. Uncheck this if you want to make your image private and send it ONLY in messages to other users.
-Type COMMENTS in if you want your picture to have a caption.

After making these changes, click the SAVE CHANGES button to the LEFT, or your updates will not be saved!

Clicking Delete will remove the image.

If the new flash based image uploader does not work, you can use the old image uploader located at the bottom of the page.

Please make sure your images meet the following guidelines:
Images must be in JPG, BMP, or GIF format.
Images must NOT contain any nudity or offensive material.
Images must NOT contain cartoons or celebrities.
You can upload a maximum of 8 images.
If images are too large, they will not upload properly.

Once you’ve written your mail message you’ll see your photos displayed at the bottom of the screen. Simply check the boxes beside the photos you’d like to send and your message will contain the images you’ve selected.

-You may have the maximum number of images already. The maximum number is 8 images for regular users, and 16 for Serious Members.
-You may have an Image Upload Ban on your account. This occurs if you upload indecent or offensive images.

Images should appear immediately. Try uploading your image again. If the image is uploaded and then deleted, it means it didn't meet our requirements. Even if your image had no nudity, it may have been indecent or inappropriate for the site. If your image is too big it won't upload either.

More about images:

In order to maximize the Area of your displayed Image on your Profile, use a Graphic Editor to crop your chosen Pic to an Aspect Ratio of just a Hair under 1:1.

The largest size a pic on your Profile can be displayed at in your Browser is 300 Pixels wide by 299 Pixels high. Simply make sure that the Height of your Image is 1 Pixel less than its Width, such as 300 x 299, 600 x 599, 789 x 788, 1,153 x 1,152, etc. ... or any other Size you like, but not exceeding 1,200 DPI on any one Side. After upload, if you then click on that Profile Thumbnail Image placeheld as the Main Pic, then check the Properties Page, your Image(s) should read 300 by 300 DPI. The Thumbnail "Mouseover" pop-up Image will also be displayed at same Size. 1,200 x 1,199 DPI BMPs will give the very best Results, but sometimes these Images will not upload at all because they well exceed 4 MBs.

You can always upload any other Images sized any which Way under 1,200 DPI, but your Profile Display will not be maximized.

If only a Portion or Section of your Pic shows after Image upload, then reduce the Size of your Image and re-upload again.

If the Background of your Image is "White", and has only uploaded partially, add a 10-20 Pixel black Border around it before trying to upload it again. You can also now upload very narrow or wide Pics, but the Thumbnail Images will be rendered 'Proportionally Distorted'.
