Every Shebeener now has a publicly viewable Profile page. This page includes information provided by the member, either during the registration process or later on via the My Account control panel.

There are a number of ways to view a member's profile. Whenever you see a member's name, clicking on it will usually take you to view their profile page. The members list allows you to browse all registered members, and quickly click through to public profiles.

When logged in, you can also view your own public profile by clicking on the My Profile link in the page header:



The public profile lists information about the member under the 'About Me' tab. It also includes statistical information, such as the number of posts they have made and their registration date. This information is shown under the 'Statistics' tab.

Other information includes a list of Friends, their profile picture (if set by the member), and a list of members who have recently visited the profile page. A list of the members' Albumsand social Group memberships are also shown.

Visitor messages on the public profile page are publicly viewable messages posted on member profile pages. To post a message, click on the 'Visitor messages' tab, and use the form at the top of the section.

You will only be able to use certain formatting in these messages, as described underneath the edit box. This message will be viewable by all visitors to this profile, including guest users and search engine robots if the administrator has allowed this. To communicate privately with a member, send a Private Message instead.

Visitor messages can be edited or deleted by site moderators or the member who owns the profile. If you see a visitor message that is not appropriate, you can alert the moderators by clicking on the 'Report' link.

The 'View Conversation' link allows you to view all visitor messages between the member and the owner of the profile.
