I have a total n00b question

kurtgodel	Date: December 19, 2007 @ 5:50 PM I have a lot of pictures up on my dmusic account. I'd like to make access to them private. How do I do that? I feel like a total idiot for not being able to do it myself. HALP! lol
kurtgodel	Date: December 19, 2007 @ 5:52 PM And apparently I shouldn't have refreshed the screen after I posted my initial thread. Sorry for the accidental repost. I also can't delete my excess threads, apparently. My bad.
Dexter	Date: December 19, 2007 @ 6:00 PM But, apparently, I can! As for your pic question, click the red My DMusic tab. To the top right of the screen click Edit Artist Account. Go into your file manager and adjust the Visibility of the pics you wish to hide Is that the answer you're looking for?
TameasDust	Date: December 19, 2007 @ 6:04 PM we can hide pictures?
Dexter	Date: December 19, 2007 @ 6:05 PM But why would one want to?

Dexter	Date: December 19, 2007 @ 6:09 PM x LOTS...
Dexter	Date: December 19, 2007 @ 6:10 PM Btw, we're talking images accessible via the link on artists pages Not users
Distilled1	Date: December 19, 2007 @ 6:13 PM why would you want private ones then no one can see them.. that really makes no sense
ChillinBuzz	Date: December 19, 2007 @ 6:40 PM he needs somewhere to hide his personal porn stash...
ChillinBuzz	Date: December 19, 2007 @ 6:48 PM i was joking when i said that... seems he has a potentially offensive pic or two up there http://halfdeaf.dmusic.com/pictures/330852 what is it with this place lately? perverts, porn merchants and pedos. i say let's shoot the damn lot and be done with it!
pog	Date: December 19, 2007 @ 7:58 PM Hi kurt, I'm thinking you're referring to a service that allows you to make photo's available to a set crowd such as those on your buddy list. If this is the case, then you need to consider making yourself a bebo account or some such other social networking site. As far as I'm aware, you can only make photo's visible or invisible to the public. This is generally all the DMusic artists and users would need, as it's more about having a place to put your promotional posters, show people your studio, family, band etc. Personally, I don't really like the whole only people on my buddy list can look at my photo's concept as generally, people like to know what the character they are talking to actually looks like. Kinda keeps it real.

pog	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 12:22 AM of course the part where I put "Personally..." etc. That's all in my humble opinion.
ChillinBuzz	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 4:52 AM real? who told you that, Pog?
zedsalt	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 11:08 AM Yeah, I know what you mean, Kingo. I, for instance, am a really nice guy, but people tend to gather their children close and cross the street in order to avoid passing me on the sidewalk.
ChillinBuzz	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 11:36 AM I have a suggestion, Zed... Get dressed before going for a walk?
kurtgodel	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 3:01 PM Actually I hate to admit this but the reason I would like to hide certain ones is because I use dmusic more like photobucket than a music site. Instead of my songs up I have my photos up. I know that's not how it's supposed to work but hey, lol There's a picture of my dog, Jubei (a boxer), up. Someone who apparently is holding some sort of juvenile grudge against me found my dmusic pictures folder, yoinked a bunch of pictures of my dog, photoshopped them to make him look dead via gunshot, then posted them to try to, I dunno, intimidate me? Scare me? Something like that. Anyway he got IP banned from the message board he pulled that on. But I wanted to hide some of my dmusic-hosted pics so that he can't do anything else similar in the future for the purposes of harassment. Also I'm building a legal case for a restraining order and removing the pictures from public access was the first thing my lawyer requested.
ChillinBuzz	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 3:05 PM you want to host pics here, hide them from us but use them elsewhere? kinda defeats the purpose of you actually being here doesn't it, since i was under the impression this is a music site still... the boss didn't send you to soften us up in preparation for a possible shakeup, hm? simple advice, if you use dm more like photobucket then go and use photobucket for this sort of thing. don't be bringing your problems with other sites to us... gees.
kurtgodel	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 3:22 PM I wasn't "bringing my problems from other sites" to you. Grow up man. Your ignorance of the situation doesn't allow you to take into consideration things like the fact that I want to use dmusic the way that I use it. There's nothing in the terms of use agreement that says I can't. Also, photobucket doesn't work for my purposes, home boy, so before you start telling me what to do with my persuits perhaps you should filter that brain-to-mouth process and, you know, know what you're talking about first. But yeah, admin guy; thanks for the help. I actually found it before I looked back here. I'm a total idiot. But thanks for teh help. x 10 *and it's "jeez", not "gees" Get a clue.

What did I have up that was supposedly "potentially offensive"? I am neither a pervert, "porn merchant" nor a "pedo". You've got a real attitude problem, punchy.
ShadowMom	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 3:46 PM I believe you called it "bush" -- and it wasn't exactly art. And read the TOS again. "DMusic may discontinue or alter any aspect of the DMusic Service, including, but not limited to, (i) restricting the time the DMusic Service is available, (ii) restricting the amount of use permitted, and (iii) restricting or terminating any user's right to use the DMusic Service, at DMusic's sole discretion and without prior notice or liability."

ShadowMom	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 3:47 PM I don't think PhotoBucket would allow that picture, either, but you are welcome to try.
kurtgodel	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 3:49 PM "Bush on Katrina" Wow. Gosh. That certainly makes me a, what did he call me, pedo? Porn merchant? Hardly. Come on, now. That's not pornography. If someone wanted it gone then so be it. What do I care? But that was hardly something designed to be offensive or intentionally objectionable, unless you're just a big ole Bush supporter. Ah, you people get as offended as you want. You didn't even know my pictures existed before I screwed up and drew your attention to them.
kurtgodel	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 3:50 PM Perhaps you've not been reading. Photobucket doesn't work for what I need images hosted for. ! And what do you even care? If you don't like what I have up don't look. No one forced you.
kurtgodel	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 3:54 PM And what is "art" ShadowMom? Enlighten me.
ShadowMom	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 3:55 PM I'm an admin... it comes with the job.
kurtgodel	Date: December 21, 2007 @ 4:06 PM Christ, alright then. Let me issue a formal apology to the mass-millions I permanently damaged with my intentionally offensive and terminally awful farce. Now that the .001% arguably somewhat nearly questionable material has been removed I'll just assume I heard an apology for being called imprecise and offensive names, and I'll also just pretend that I heard a similar apology for the suggestion that I be "shot and done with (sic)".

St-Fu	Date: December 22, 2007 @ 5:25 PM Did someone need shooting?
Dexter	Date: December 24, 2007 @ 7:13 PM The correct spelling of "boob" is...
ChillinBuzz	Date: December 24, 2007 @ 7:17 PM Apologies? Pffft. You have more chance of surviving re-entry with a goldfish bowl on your head than getting an apology from me! Boobs! It's boobs, rh!
Dexter	Date: December 24, 2007 @ 7:20 PM Like I'd know!
ChillinBuzz	Date: December 24, 2007 @ 7:26 PM Can I get away with saying "Don't look down" then?

cantstoprunning	Date: February 26, 2008 @ 3:15 PM nvm dA--none of that stuff looked like art. but still, there are dozens of sites that do image hosting.
TameasDust	Date: July 25, 2008 @ 8:05 PM Speaking of digging ...
zedsalt	Date: July 26, 2008 @ 3:39 AM I'm just here because my morning eyes misread the title as "I have a nodal tube question". And I have no idea as to why that make me click through; I know little if anything about nodal tubes.
Veracohr	Date: July 26, 2008 @ 5:51 AM My suggestion is to find a web host where you can pay $5 a month and use that. My website barely uses the amount of storage my hosting account allows me, so I use it for photo hosting as well. And then you can put whatever you want there.
