The MySpace Wish List

If you’ve spent any time on MySpace, the most popular website in the U.S, you’ll have probably noticed that the profiles without a good profile picture have few friends. MySpace being what it is, a place of social networking typically is very personal in nature. People want to see the real you and they want to know that there’s a real person on the other side of their computer screen.

One of the ways to get a lot of involvement in your profile is to upload a good variety of pictures. The more fun and interesting pictures you upload to your profile the better. People love to comment on them and its fun to see what everyone has to say.

A good way to make your picture page more interesting is to add captions to your photos describing the picture. When you add a short comment you encourage others to participate in commenting on them.

MySpace does not allow any offensive or copyrighted photos on their website. These include pictures of nudity or offensive images. They monitor their site and claim to delete the accounts of offenders. One other thing to consider is their policy of only allowing a maximum photo size of 600k or less. Anything larger will not be accepted.

To add a photo to your MySpace profile you need to sign in and select ‘Upload/Change Photos.’ Then you’ll want to select ‘Browse’ to find the desired picture on your computer. Once you’ve located the file you wish to upload select ‘Open’ from the menu. Now that you’ve selected a picture from your computer the directory path will show up in the MySpace upload box. Click on ‘Upload’ to send it to your profile.

Once your picture has been uploaded to your profile you can choose to set it as your default picture. Your default picture is the one everyone sees when you make a comment or message or when they visit your profile page.

Don’t use your profile pictures as a place for storage. If you have uploaded a lot of pictures to your profile it may take longer to load. If you need to store your pictures online there are many free photo storage sites to choose from.

Make sure to select pictures that represents you and your interests. If your profile is all about your favorite activity, then by all means make sure you’re doing your favorite activity in the picture. It’s true that on MySpace a picture says a thousand words. Get a great picture uploaded and start making some friends.
