If you have been erroneously identified as any of the above by our screening process we sincerely apologize and welcome you to re-register. We just want to err on the side of caution and protect our Black Dating Community the best we can. There are a lot of troublemakers out there on the internet.

You can upload up to 8 photos to your profile. They each need to be larger than 400 x 400px and are in a JPG, BMP or GIF format.

To add or delete photos on your profile click on the �My Photos� button. To add click on the �Browse� button and select your photo.

You have the option for your photo to �Show on Profile� or �Private Image�. �Show on Profile� will allow everyone that sees your profile to see this image. �Private Image� keeps your photo hidden from your profile but you will have the option to add it to a Private Message, making it only visible to those that you choose to send it to.

Choose which photo you would like to be your �Main Image�. This is the image that everyone will see when they do a search and find your profile. When they click on the profile they will see the other images you put on there.

To delete your photo click on "Delete Image" that is next to the photo you would like to remove.�

�Account Settings� lets you filter who can contact you and manage your email notifications.

You can customize your settings so that ONLY certain people can contact you. For example, if you don't want someone that smokes to contact you, click on the �Smoke� box which will block anyone that smokes from contacting you. If you only want Men between the ages of 45 to 55 to be able to contact you simply choose the numbers �45� and �55� in the �Age Between� boxes.

What you choose here will combine with the information on your Profile in order to find out what people are the right matches for you and create your "My Matches".

There are plenty of lousy people out there that try to exploit the generosity and kindness of others. We think this is the lowest kind of betrayal and guard our Black Dating For Free registered members as best we can. However, we cannot keep all of these nuisances out all of the time.

If you suspect that someone is trying to con you or someone else, if someone has asked you to send money, if someone is trying to sell you something or promote a product or a website, we encourage you to CONTACT US and let us know. We want to minimize this kind of intrusion to our Community and appreciate any tips we get from our members.

Let us know their Username and what their words/actions were that you feel were a violation of our terms and conditions when you submit your comments.

When you are spending time on Black Dating For Free you will see quite a few personal profiles. As you look at these personal profiles you may find some that interest you more than others.

If you would like to make a record of these Favorite profiles and keep them in a list to see later, go to a profile and look a the top right of the profile page. At the top right of each personal profile you will see a button that says Add to Favorites.

Click on this button and the members profile will automatically be added to your Favorites.

You went through the registration process and now you can�t login because you were never sent your activation email. We really appreciate you signing up and love that you are excited and ready to get started.

Here are some possible scenarios why you have not received your activation email: -You did not get entirely through the registration process- In order to get the activation email sent to you, you must get to the final page that notifies you that you are successfully registered and that you should check your email. -The email address you registered with is not the same one you are checking. -The email address is a yahoo or other free email address- sometimes these email servers take up to an hour or two to receive mail depending on the server load. Your activation email should be in your inbox instantly or within a few minutes but these hour or two long delays have been known to happen. -You have actually received your activation email but it has been delivered to your spam folder. Please check your spam folder to see if it went there. Sometimes this folder is called the �Junk Folder� or �Bulk Folder�. PLEASE BE SURE TO ADD THIS EMAIL ADDRESS TO YOUR ADDRESS BOOK SO THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE FUTURE DELIVERY PROBLEMS: [email protected] -You have not received your email because it never got through to you (for one reason or another- Yahoo, MSN, AOL and others can make it difficult sometimes but they are just trying to make it harder for spammers to get through to you, we can appreciate that). If this is the case, Please CLICK HERE and enter your email address in order to have a very basic version of the activation email sent to you.

Well, we are consistently working on this feature and trying to make it better all the time. When you click on My Matches you will see some profiles that we think would be good for you based on a few things: your desired age range AND the other person's desired age range, your location and other factors.

If you have set your preferred age range as 28 and 42 then you will see profiles of people in this age range- but ONLY those who desire YOUR age.

In other words, we determine your matches based on what you have told us in your Account Settings. To change that age range go to "Account Settings".

Also keep in mind that, if you have a saved search in "Advanced Search", we use the criteria that you saved to help us determine your matches as well!
