We've been hearing some feedback about the rules for profile pictures. Among the feedback is:

The rules are too confusing
Why do I have to show my face?
I keep having pictures denied and don't know why

We wanted to hear what every one thinks about the rules. Are they too strict? Should Nexopia allow any type of profile pictures? Should it just have to be a picture of some part of you (a cool tattoo on your arm)?

Let us know what you think!

	06:46pm \| Aug 17, '09 SHELLSHOCK, i think face, or shoulders to hips, are fine rules. don't change that, people will get carried away with pictures of anything.

	06:47pm \| Aug 17, '09 *RAWR-WHORE.x i think you should be allowed to put any part of your body (aside from nudity/personal areas ) as a picture. close up or tattoos or peircings or whichever.

	06:49pm \| Aug 17, '09 Kevin Should the picture have to be recognizable as you?
	Top

	07:10pm \| Aug 17, '09 *RAWR-WHORE.x no. cuz some tattoos and whatnot can be on places that is hard to get your face in there. lots of people have pics of there bodies up without faces. how does a person really know thats actually them without a face?

	06:55pm \| Aug 27, '09 unrequited1 But those pictures can always be uploaded to the gallery, where they are allowed to be. I don`t understand why people are all bent over pictures like that getting denied, pictures are on here so others know what you look like, use your gallery to express yourself further.

	02:50am \| Aug 28, '09 *RAWR-WHORE.x Good.point! What.bout.the.negative.photos.bein.denied?.those.should.be.allowed
	Top

	02:54am \| Aug 28, '09 unrequited1 The reason inverted pictures are denied is because they alter a picture so much so that you can hardly recognize the person anymore, but they are allowed in galleries.

	03:04am \| Aug 28, '09 *RAWR-WHORE.x I.Know.that I'm.a.pic.mod.afterall. And.honestly.wats.so.altered.about.it? All.it.does.is.change.the.levels You.can.tell.its.you.or.at.least.a.person They.really.aren't.no.different.than.a.normal.pic.just.the.levels.reversed

	03:11am \| Aug 28, '09 unrequited1 If you take an original and the same picture altered, it is quite a bit different. I don't like inverted pictures, they are just stupid... but yeah, that's my opinion.

	06:48pm \| Aug 17, '09 Corbinus Who cares? Let people put on what they want.

	06:49pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- I think that, you should be able to have any picture up. as long as you state that its not you or soemthing. you could keep the fakers forum up and everything, but say if someone has a picture of there son up, they can say 'this is my son' in the caption, or if they have a baby picture up, and whatnot.
	Top

	06:56pm \| Aug 27, '09 unrequited1 Those photos can be uploaded to the users gallery, they do not have to be on their main page. Your page is set up for you, the pictures should be of you.
	Top

	07:02pm \| Aug 27, '09 WHOREmoans- uhm. I'd like to have a picture of my son up on my profile without it actually being in my about me. or my gallery, not many people go into your gallery.
	Top

	07:04pm \| Aug 27, '09 unrequited1 Then people can take a visible picture of themselves with their child and upload it, which I have seen. Your profile is a reflection of you, but that doesn't mean you have to put up pictures of your child(ren), it doesn't make sense to me. If you want a picture of your kid up so bad, then host it and put it in your profile "about me" section.
	Top

	07:08pm \| Aug 27, '09 WHOREmoans- uhm.. it shouldn't be a problem if I have a picture of him in my profile pictures, if the caption says 'my son' or something. it's just stupid that you have to have them all of you.
	Top

	07:14pm \| Aug 27, '09 unrequited1 I don't understand why you think it is stupid. Your profile is for you, you upload pictures so users know what you look like. Maybe I am old-fashioned, but that's the way I have always viewed profiles, even on facebook and myspace.
	Top

	07:26pm \| Aug 27, '09 WHOREmoans- yes but, I'm sick of having people ask my what my son looks like. I think that if you have the caption as something showing that it's not you. then it should be fine.
	Top

	07:30pm \| Aug 27, '09 unrequited1 If they are asking then you can tell them to go look in your gallery or under your "about me", it's as simple as that. I am not dissing your opinion, by the way, I wouldn't complain if that rule was pushed through, just stating my own opinion.
	Top

	06:50pm \| Aug 17, '09 Faaip.De.Oiad i think verified pictures are a MUST now. the percentage of fake accounts is skyrocketing. nexopia has become a cyber hookup site now. maybe if verified pics are required, this wont happen
	Top

	06:52pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- that's stupid. I mean like, I would make one. but I don't even have a camera, I barely have any new pictures up. Verified pictures are hard to make for some people. and really, I kinda think it's stupid to have them in the first place.
	Top

	06:57pm \| Aug 17, '09 outtacontrol, Yeah I tottaly agree w/ you. & wasn't Nexopia suppose to be a dating site or someshit anyways? Verified pictures are stupid, cause even sometimes when you make them they don't get accepted. Woo who fuckn cares if ppl are fake or nott. unless you're just horney & needa cyber.
	Top

	06:59pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- LOL. exactly. who gives a shit. maybe you should get rid of fakers forum all together. if people wanna make a verified picture, they can. but, really.. if you think about it, nexopia is getting over rated.
	Top

	07:02pm \| Aug 17, '09 outtacontrol, Hahah, Nexopia is already over-rated. I didn't rly even get the point of Verified pictures for the longest time anyways. Like really, if nexopia starts saying that we HAVE to have a Verified picture then i'm off. Like facebook has fakes but they're not like, OSUP VERIFIED PICTURE. .. if that made any sense @all.
	Top

	07:06pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- hahaha, yeah ! i know. isn't nex trying to get up there with myspace and facebook? well, neither of them are all '_verified picture pls' when you make a profile Jesus christ, we shouldn't have to prove were real anyways, I could be some 60 year old man, it's the internet, get used to it.
	Top

	07:07pm \| Aug 17, '09 outtacontrol, Hahha yeah ! & i hate when ppl get called fake when they really aren't & ppl are like bitching @ them to make a fucking verified picture. like honestly, just cause you're pretty doesn't mean you're fuckn fake.
	Top

	07:27pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- yeah ! LOL. i get called fake all the time, and they put my new account (this one) on the delete list just because my old account's on it. ;l
	Top

	07:30pm \| Aug 17, '09 outtacontrol, wow , i hate when ppl get called fake just causse they're very good looking or have a rly ballin' ass camera. cause like they're all like ' OH HEY THEY HAVE UNDER 1000 HITS, & ARE RLY HOT. THEY MUST BE FAKE ' i'm like o.O alrighty then you have fun w/ that.
	Top

	07:33pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- ahaha, yeah ! i know. someone told me, that i had too many piercings. and that I had to be fake. I was like .. go die.
	Top

	Top

	07:38pm \| Aug 17, '09 outtacontrol, yeah ! like my friend kaseyarmstong. got so fed up w/ ppl calling her a fake cause ppl stole her pictures off myspace & shit. so she just deleted all of her pictures & went to facebook cause ppl were forsing her to make a sign photo, & like honestly ppl shouldn't have to prove if they're real or not.
	Top

	07:41pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- yeah, I know kasey. that was messed up. she barely comes on anymore. nex needs to change there fakers forum rules or somethng.
	Top

	07:43pm \| Aug 17, '09 outtacontrol, yeahh it just really pisses me off how like OSUP IF YOU'RE PRETTY YOU CAN'T COME ON NEX. like honestly that's shit.
	Top

	07:44pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- i know, I love nex. but there blowing everything way out of proportion.
	Top

	07:48pm \| Aug 17, '09 outtacontrol, yeah i know. i love nex too, but i really hate how like EVERYONE left it all just cause it fuckn changed. liek oo, facebook changes & they don't leave that.
	Top

	07:49pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- yeah, but I do like the old nex 10 times better than this one.. the only part I like is the blogs, I could do without everything else.
	Top

	Top

	07:53pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- yeah, but I kinda like the new profile pages, how you can choose where certain things go, and put things under friends,
	Top

	07:55pm \| Aug 17, '09 outtacontrol, yeah i dunno its a love hate thing rly. like i love how you can have poll's on the pages & how you can put stuff under the friends. but then i miss how the friends & comments used to be like.
	Top

	07:56pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- yeah,
	Top

	08:26pm \| Aug 17, '09 FREENECROS. not everyone has common sense. a lot of kiddies fall for those fakes and get seriously hurt. nexopia is HELPING them by have a fakers forum.
	Top

	08:28pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- uh, thats there own fault for falling for them in the first place, or even online dating them. theey should know better.
	Top

	08:51pm \| Aug 17, '09 tasteemee uh actually, if anyone reports an account as questionable then facebook requires the person to have more photos and have several friends in their network verify their identity.
	Top

	09:56pm \| Aug 17, '09 WHOREmoans- yeah, but they don't go around making you make id pictures, now do they ?
	Top

	10:35pm \| Aug 17, '09 tasteemee neither does nex unless it is called into question hmmm sounds like the same thing to me
	Top

	06:57pm \| Aug 27, '09 unrequited1 I completely agree with you.
	Top

	10:46pm \| Aug 27, '09 Faaip.De.Oiad you're the first! seriously i think 95% of people with less than 1000 hits are fake. how often do you see this?: 16-18 female Bisexual, but ONLY into girls 2 pictures that dont look like the same person pictures that are on several other pages words "horny" "sex" on taglines

unrequited1

Exactly, it is getting old.
I mod pictures and I have seen so many possible fakes each day, it is ridiculous.
I think there should be an option to have your verified picture visible on your profile for those who complain.

OH, and I don't assume they are fakes because of how "gorgeous" they are, either... for those of you who may assume that.

Another thing; I think "tits 4 hits" should be automatic denies, saw quite a few of those in the queue today.
