Please double check that your email addresses are hidden. - if you want yours hidden that is....

A email address is like a Contact Card.



If you haven't checked - then follow these steps...

On the main menu buttons above the ad banner above - click on "PROFILE"

Then on the left hand side menu - click on "Account Related Settings"

Ensure the check box: Hide email address from public is selected and click the button named "Change Profile" at the bottom.

Go check now.




Oh - as a side note...
You are able to see your own email address regardless of these settings - however once set to "Keep Private" then only you can see it - no one else can. It's a bit confusing I know... but it works.

I'll tidy this up with screen shots at some stage...

Hey Dazza, if you are still there, can you check whether my email address is still showing?

Lol...
I wish! Last time I checked I was going bald!  Huh


You can add YouTube vids by...

Click on the "INSERT FLASH" button above and inbetween the tags which are inserted into your post - paste the URL of the video you want to insert...

something like this....

http://www.youtube.com/v/_VKouBHarIo&hl=en&fs=1


Or - and even better...
All you ACTUALLY need to do is take the URL out of the "EMBED" URL on YouTube and past that in here - then it works just fine!

Should be fun fun fun that bit!

For your own personal files you'll need to upload them to the net somewhere else and then link/embed it from there. I dont THINK we have file storage here.


WARNING: In the interest of user security dont use your own hosting service - open a public account somewhere (dont ask where though!) and use that for hosting your files.
The address/URL will be exposed when you create the link or embed your item.
