Photos : Once you’ve registered we strongly recommend you upload photographs to your profile – at least a signature image, and then you can add further public (non x-rated) and private (x-rated) photos if you like. You can also put your photos into a slide show too. Further information : We recommend that once you have registered you add further information about yourself that is not covered by our registration process. For instance if you are looking for sex or a relationship you may wish to fill in sexual information about yourself like fetishes, and if you are looking for friends you might want to add your hobbies/interests and sports that you like. All this can be done in the Profile and Media Manager.
