Having followed the YLF family for such a long time, it is wonderful knowing that because of the guidance of Greg and Angie, everyone has a very safe way of sharing who they are in a very personal way. I love the idea of being able to post pins onto my "Angie..." Pinterest board as well.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-new-photo-profile-privacy-options#post-1068090 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 03:57:46 +0000 Debbie 1068090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-new-photo-profile-privacy-options#post-1068079 Wed, 30 Oct 2013 03:46:04 +0000 Anonymous 1068079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Greg.

They do not affect each other (and never have).</p> <p>What I described above is how you change settings for the forum.</p> <p>In your lookfab blog settings you can change the settings for the blog. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-new-photo-profile-privacy-options#post-1067629 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 21:43:20 +0000 annagybe 1067629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How does this work in terms of the blogs? I made my blog completely public so others outside of YLF could see it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-new-photo-profile-privacy-options#post-1067626 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 21:40:48 +0000 rachylou 1067626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-new-photo-profile-privacy-options#post-1067618 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 21:34:42 +0000 MsMary 1067618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Greg!&nbsp; You're awesome!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-new-photo-profile-privacy-options#post-1067594 Tue, 29 Oct 2013 21:18:18 +0000 Greg 1067594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a follow up to the recent threads on <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/note-new-restrictions-for-viewing-photos">new photo viewing restrictions</a> and <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/input-req-photo-viewing-restrictions">making those restrictions optional</a>.&nbsp;</p> <p>I just updated YLF profile settings with some new privacy options: </p> <ol> <li><b>You can choose to only show your photos to active members</b>. This is on by default, so if you want your photos to be visible to everyone then uncheck this setting.</li> <li><b>You can allow your photos to be pinned</b>. The default is not to&nbsp;allow pinning. Note that this setting only works if your photos are visible to everyone (i.e. the first setting above is off).</li> <li><b>You can choose to only show your profile details</b> (personal info, fashion and style preferences, body type and appearance) <b>to active members</b>. By default your profile details are restricted.</li> </ol> <p>To access the settings, go to your profile page (accessible from the menu when you hover over your name at the top right of the page, or by clicking your profile picture anywhere it appears). The "Privacy" tab is on the right. </p> <p>Please let me know if you see anything odd when you are using these new settings.&nbsp;</p> <p>Finally, a point on privacy in general. These new settings offer a little more privacy than before, but <i>please&nbsp;don't view them as airtight</i>. If someone wants to see your photos and profile details, all they have to do is sign up and wait to become an active member. This hurdle will stop a lot of spammers, passers by,&nbsp;and other people up to no good, but if someone really wants to get in, they're going to get in. </p>
