What the hell does this mean?

I still dont get it; if I have private pics that I *can* attach but shoose not to, they are automatically sent with a message I wrote to someone?

Yup, if you are trying to e-mail someone who has such Stipulations in their Mail Settings. If you don't have any hidden Pics, but visible ones, then the hidden ones won't be attached, and if you have no Pics uploaded at all, your E-Mail simply won't go through.

Anywho, the Admin has consistently made changes to this Feature, so I don't know where its at right now.

That is against *MY* desires and seems, like mentioned above, to violate a persons privacy.

Well, then leave the Pics off your Profile, or just one you would have no Objections to sharing.

I've nothing to hide

We don't know you from a Haystack, same as any Fake Profiles which may be on Site.

It's almost like a trojan, an unwanted program collecting info and transmitting it without the users permission.

We don't infect you, and freely give you the inside scoop on it.

I smell a suit down the road!

Let the Power of reading the Terms of Service/User Agreement engulf you.

So how can I disable private pictures I have uploaed to my profile page (that do not show when someone does a search for my user name) from being sent in a private message?

Don't e-mail anyone. If you gotta hide, its not made easy for you, anymore than it is for Mr. Bogus Account.

Thanks for the reply. I have some I put on to have readily available however not public, my choosing.. So from what you say, they won't go through in a message, unless I attach them.
And the fact I am taking the time to discuss this openly ought to help anyone know that no, I'm not a bogus account or anything. I just want to make sure I understand it.

Because its not so much I dont want to send photos; I just want it such that if somoene sends me a message that I desire to reply "Thanks, but no thanks", I want the right to not have them see any pic(s) I have on my profile.

I am going to send you a message, please let me know how it goes...

How is this supposed to FIX this problem.
EVERYONE went way off track on this subject!

I sent a message to someone and I get a reply back with ALL of my pictures attached!!!
I don't have any HIDDEN.
It's very annoying when you're trying to pick someone up and they get bombarded with ALL of your pictures!!!!

Please fix it so ONLY your DEFAULT picture is sent... or better yet... NONE at all!!! They can just click you profile link to view the pictures anyways!

No fix or change is needed. The system works fine. You only have to learn how it works.

If the user to whom you sent your message of initial contact has a mail setting limiting contact to only users that have photos one of two things will happen

1) if you have public photos they will all be attached, and hidden photos will be ignored.

2) if you have only hidden photos they will all be attached.


When that person replies to your initial contact as a courtesy to you your original message is shown, and so are the photos that were attached with that message.
