First, you need to understand the difference between profile thumbnails and photos within the listing. If you are getting a message that the filesize, picture size, or filetype is wrong, then you are talking about the thumbnails that link from the category indexes to your listing.
You upload a profile thumbnail through the link at the bottom of your listing edit window that has a little box where your picture will be displayed when you get it uploaded.
IE simply doesn’t work for most girls.
Some girls have problems with different browsers. I was able to do this with Firefox, Opera, and K-Meleon. Other girls have found that only Google Chrome will do it. Try downloading that.
The regular photo uploader has not been installed yet since the transition. We do not have an eta on that. You will have to find an image host to upload them to. Some people use photohostess, which does not have private accounts. Some girls complain about downtime.
Most photo hosts are not adult-friendly. They will delete your account and you will lose your pictures in a heartbeat.
I think there are adult-friendly paid photo hosts.
If you do find some kind of photo hosting situation, better back up your photos. Who knows what could happen to your account? The site could shut down leaving you with no photos and no options.
Consider buying a domain and a regular hosting account. It is actually really straightforward to create a directory to host your own pics, videos, recordings, or whatever once you get the hang of it. You can also host your own blog or website.
I have dreamhost and I am satisfied with the service they give me. Email me if you want a discount code for them.
Standard HTML image code is:
<img src=”http://imageurl”>
Background image code:
<body background=”http://imageurl”>
which you would put at the very top of your listing edit window.
November 17th, 2009 — Niteflirt issues
There’s been quite a discussion in the forums about the way individual listing availability control should be designed by Niteflirt, and I won’t get into that here. There still seems to be a lot of confusion about how it currently works, and that’s what I would like to clear up.
If you’re still trying to use the listing availability links as before and it’s not working for you, you are fighting the new system. If you are finding it does all kinds of unpredictable things, that’s because they changed it without notifying us or changing the help file. It operates in a completely different manner. It works, but it’s like a new feature which is not equivalent to the old feature it replaced.
The old system was designed to permit someone to change the status of one listing. Either from within your listing or from inside your Listing Details page you could click on the availability status of that one listing, go to another window, and change it. If you only wanted one odd listing on or off on an occasional basis, it worked great with that.
So, things the old system was good at:
- Turning on only one listing;
- Turning off only one listing.
Things it was not so good at:
- Managing multiple listings, rather than just one with a different status – could take a while to change all the ones that needed changing;
- Managing listings in multiple accounts – could take a whole lot of time.
What it couldn’t do at all:
- Save your chosen settings for next time. They were gone every time you changed your account status.
Listing availability is now focused on managing multiple listings and saving your settings, rather than having one listing different from the others.
Changing the availability of a listing within the listing itself or inside your Listing Details page now is changing the preset on it. Listings that are set to Away on the Listing Details page will not go on when the account is turned on. Listings that are set to Available on the Listing Details page will turn on when your account is turned on.
There is no need to make your listings show as Away on the Listing Details page when your master Availability is set to Away.
The settings will stay with your account until the next time you go in there and change them.
