Newsletter - 03/16/2002
Hello! We hope that all is well with you and yours! We thought we would send you a short note to let you know of some of latest updates and changes here at MF, and we have a couple of great ones for you:
PROFILE PHOTOS NOW ON MAIN PAGE!
===============================
We are now showing 4 randomly picked profile photos on the main page! This is giving a dramatic increase to the viewings of the profiles shown. If you have a photo in your profile then your profile is automatically eligible to be randomly picked. If you do not have a photo in your profile, add it now! Not only will you be eligible for this great new feature but 90% of the members search only profiles with photos.
NEW PROFILE LOOK!
================
We have recently changed the look of the profile pages and hopefully made them a bit more functional. We have shortened the page by about 40%, placed the contact link in a couple of places and, well, why not drop by and see for yourself? :)
LAST ACCESS TIME ADDED TO LISTINGS:
==================================
We have also redesigned the listing pages to give a cleaner, more streamlined look. As well, we have added when a member was last logged in or even if they are logged in now! We hope that this will make your browsing much more enjoyable! Drop by now and try iy out!
TIPS AND TRICKS:
================
Increase your exposure by adding a Photo Album to your profile! This is a popular area and can increase your profile viewings. When you create a Photo Album a link to it is automatically added to your profile. Here's how:
To add a Photo Album:
Click on the "Photos" button in the left hand menu.
Choose a category you wish your Photo Album to be created in.
Click the "Click here to create a photo album in this category!" link.
Fill out the form with album title and comments. Submit.
Click on your album title.
Click on the "Click here to add a photo to this album!"
Fill out the form with path to your photo, title and comments. Submit.
Repeat last 2 instructions to add more photos.
That's all there is to it! Add one now!
CHANGING YOUR PASSWORD:
======================
Is your password hard to remember? Changing it to something else is very easy! To change your password or update your profile log in and click the "Click here to update your profile." link in the Your Profile section of your Account Home page (the page you arrive at when you log in.) Make your changes in the appropriate fields and submit. That's all there is to it!
ADDING YOUR PHOTO:
=================
Do you get an error message when trying to add your photo? Not that computer graphic savvy? Here's some tips:
The dimension of your photos must be no more than 500 pixels by 500 pixels wide and under 100K in file size. We require these size restrictions to keep the overall look of the site intact. (Many sites do not control this feature thereby causing continuous scrolling to view whole photo or lengthy downloads, browser freeze, etc.)
Also, your photo must be in either .jpg or .gif format.
Any photo editor will allow you to reformat, resize or crop your photos, also most scanning software. If you don't have a photo editor you can download one for free at, among other places, http://www.download.com. Do a search of their download area for "photo editors". For example, you can find a nice one here http://www.vicman.net/vcwphoto/index.htm
And if all else fails, send your photo to us as an email attachment. Remember to include your nickname in your email.
GOING GOLD:
===========
We often get asked if we have other payment options other than credit card, U.S. online check and telephone and the anwer is "Yes, we do!" In addition to these three forms of payment we also accept both money orders and bank drafts (NO PERSONAL CHECKS please!) via regular mail. To find out more just email us at this address asking for our other payment options.
SMILES & CHUCKLES:
==================
A husband and wife were at a party chatting with some friends when the subject of marriage counseling came up. "Oh, we'll never need that. My husband and I have a great relationship," the wife explained. "He was a communications major in college and I majored in theater arts. He communicates real well and I just act like I'm listening."
AND FINALLY:
============
Thats all for now folks! Remember, if you have any questions or suggestions just drop us a line!
All the best,
Joe and Marg
