I will probably smack my self when someone explains this, but I can't figure it out. I know how to add a location to you "Picks" and have done so. But I have seen folks that have favorite people - how does one do that exactly? And similarly, how does one add a picture of one's self to the profile?

TIA

When you click new pick, click on the picture and add a new picture from your snapshot or texture file. Then you can erase and change the text right in the box

Ok here's what you do, for adding your own picture in your profile you simply right click the black gray box where the pic would go. Once you do that another little window will pop out with your photo album from your inventory attached to it. (actually it's all of your inventory but conveniently opened up to the photos for you. So all you have to do from there is tinker around with what photo you want in the space. Same goes for adding friends to your pics page. When you create a pic you can erase all the information it pre fills in based on your location at the time and switch the picture like I explained above, and fill out the info you want it to read. Hope this helped

You should try Snapzilla. Basically you choose the send postcard option and send your picture to snapzilla which then creates this photo album for you. You can put the website of this photo album in your profile's web tab and anyone can take a look at it. My alt has this on her web tab and it's awesome.

Don't forget that if you want to change the location later it is only a cosmetic change, the underlying original place you were when you created the pick is still there.

Yes, so if you want to add your favourite person but don't want people TPing into your bedroom you may want to add that picture while physically standing at a more neutral location :D

I wish we had more than 10 pics. I've been blessed with a lot of people I hold close to my heart. My profile picks get eaten with my needed business picks.

Whoa! Thanks for the heads-up!

I actually have a nice picture I would like to use - taken awhile ago - so if I understand this correctly, I make a new Pick of anything in particular, then put in my chosen photo and delete what ever else is written... great- can't wait to try it.

:)

Yep that's it. Although I do always choose to create them at places I _do_ actually like a lot on the off chance that someone will click on the landmark :)
