 Now everyone knows that there is a paid Premium account on Multiply. So what changed? To explain the changes you must be aware of certain terms: - High Resolution Videos: the original videos you upload, in their full size and length; - High Resolution Images: the original images you upload that are bigger than 1200 pixels in any direction. - Zoomed Images: They are accessed in albums using the Zoom In link and have a maximum size of 1200 pixels in any direction (vertical or horizontal); - Thumbnails: the small images you see when you open an album, showing all the images in that album; - Previews: when you click on a thumbnail you see the image preview. If the image you uploaded isn't big enough, there is no Zoom In link in the Preview image. This happens, for instance, if you use the Java upload tool and select "Format for web"; - AutoUpload Tool: a new upload tool you install in your computer and then it will automatically upload videos and photos you have in certain folders in your hard disk (configurable, of course); - Media Locker: a new Multiply feature that shows all your videos and photos, uploaded by the AutoUpload tool or not; - Shared Videos and Photos: content you share on your posts on Multiply. All content you upload using the Multiply site that is automatically added to a post and saved is shared, but the images and videos uploaded using the AutoUpload tool won't be automatically shared. You have to go to your Media Locker and then share them, creating either a photo album or a video post. OK, now let's see what has changed. Free usersYou can also use the AutoUpload Tool and Media Locker, but you cannot access the high resolution images and videos anymore, neither your own content or posted by other users, Premium or not. It means that the download link for videos won't be available anymore (the online player is limited to 10min or 100MB for free users, what comes first) but your photos will still have the Zoom In link (if there is zoomed version, of course). You still can choose if Premium users can download the hi-res photos or download your videos if you have Advanced Posting turned on. Also content you don't share (don't add to posts) will be removed after 30 days. Your posts won't be deleted, only the pics or videos in your Media Locker that you haven't published on your page. So, basically, you get the new features but lose the download links for videos and high resolution images. Premium usersThe content in the Media Locker won't be deleted as long as you pay for the service, either if it's shared or not, and you can download the original pics and videos if the owner allowed it. Also, there is now a handy 'Download entire album as a zip file' link when viewing hi-res images and the limits for the online video player is doubled: 20min or 200MB. Last but not least, you won't have ads on your page, so you can customize your rail (the column where you headshot is shown) like you already do in your Welcome Box. And you won't see ads not only on your own page, but everywhere you go on Multiply (as long as you are logged in, of course). So no need to panic: free accounts are almost the same. And many asked for paid accounts only to remove the ads, and now for U$ 19.95 a year you can have this and also more storage and flexibility.

You have many entries in your site and now want to make it all private so non-contacts and anonymous (not logged in to Multiply) can't see your posts? Unfortunately, there is no way so far to make it at once. You have to edit post by post, and change the privacy (access) settings. If you want more control about who can see it and a few new options while composing/editing entries, turn on Advanced Posting in your settings (go to Posting Options): http://multiply.com/setup/advanced-postingYou may want to do it to your account and profile (personal data) settings too: settings --> My Accounthttp://multiply.com/setup/accountView Profile ( http://Your_Username.multiply.com/profile) --> Edit Profilehttp://multiply.com/setup/profileThe Welcome box is the only thing that's always public, but you can hide it if you want. Just click on Customize My Site on your main page and then on the Hide link found in your Welcome Message box. If click on Edit, you can choose if the link to your Profile page is visible or not if you keep the Welcome box in your page. You can also use the Edit link in your Contacts and Groups boxes to change their privacy settings (choose who can see them). As a side note, blocked users will appear in your Viewing History, but they won't be able to see any of your posts nor leave comments. But be aware that if they log out from Multiply, they will see your public posts (the ones for Everyone), but not comment.
Update1: Now in the Posting Options settings page you can also choose the default acces level for the next posts you create (it will be the default setting for your future posts). If you have any questions about this or other topics, please title accordingly and post >>> HERE

Question: Can I change my username (userid)? Short answer: No, you can't. Long answer: You can only change your display name/surname, but the username (userid) is fixed, and you can only have one for each email. Even if you delete your account, the userid you had won't be available for new registrations, so no one will be able to create an account using it, either a personal or a group account. You can, however, create a new account if the userid you want is available, but you cannot automatically move the content from the old account to the new one... You can change your account info (display name, address, etc), including some privacy settings, here: http://multiply.com/setup/accountYou can add/edit your profile info here: http://multiply.com/setup/profileIf you have any questions about this or other topics, please title accordingly and post >>> HERE

What can I do if I forget my Multiply ID or password? You can retrieve your Multiply ID on this page: http://multiply.com/user/forgot/idand your password on this page: http://multiply.com/user/forgot/passwordAlso, if you didn't click on the confirmation link that Multiply automatically sends to the email address you used during the sign up process, you won't be able to go to your Message Board (My Multiply) not accept invitations. So it's the first thing you have to do when you register. If you don't find the email, maybe it's in your junk mailbox (to avoid this, add multiply@multiply.com to your contact list or whitelist) or you made a typo when wrote the address. You can check/change it here: http://multiply.com/setup/accountAnd request another confirmation email here: http://multiply.com/user/send-confirmation-emailIf everything is OK and you still have problems, usually reseeting your browser (emptying the cache and deleting all cookies) helps.

 GUIDELINES TO SAFEGUARD YOUR MULTIPLY ACCOUNT (Subject to Change)
To avoid having your Multiply Account
at risk for cancellation, below are just a few of the simple guidelines that will assist you in keeping your Multiply account safe, and the most REPORTED reasons an account is cancelled for.
1. Age Requirement - You must be 13 or older to have a
Multiply account. This means also, that Multiply users who are parents
should not set up accounts for their children unless they meet this age
requirement. Multiply reserves the right to cancel not only children's accounts, but anyone setting up an account for children
not meeting this age requirement. So don't put your own account at risk. (Supervision of children's accounts that do meet the age
requirement is also strongly suggested.)
2. Adult Content - Most don't realize
that Adult Content is not just images. It includes posted or embedded
images, videos, links within and outside Multiply, tags, and WORDS or
WORDING, and other content deemed adult and at Multiply's sole discretion.
NOTE: Adult content is allowed in CURRENT Private Groups in the ADULT category ONLY and you must be 18 years of age or older to access these groups.
-----------------------------------
UPDATE FROM MULTIPLY: MARCH 26TH, 2007
"Multiply removed the Adult category from groups. Existing Adult groups
won't be removed, and per our Terms of Service they remain the only
places where adult content may be posted on Multiply. As has always
been the case, any hint of child exploitation - posted anywhere - will
be reported to law enforcement. We originally introduced the
Adult category in groups because, while Multiply was not (and is not)
intended as an Adult site, we did not want to censor our users and this
was a way to allow Adult content while keeping it safely hidden from
minors and anyone else who did not want to see it. However, as
time has gone on, the abuses of our Terms of Service stemming from
Adult content have taken up enough of our customer service resources
that we felt we needed to do something about it. Again, Multiply is
not, and has never been an Adult site. We have created the best
possible way for people to share their lives with friends and family
on-line, and our focus needs to be 100% on improving that core service.
As stated, existing Adult groups won't be removed, but going forward we won't be devoting any new resources to this area. "
NOTE: EXISTING ADULT GROUPS are locked as adult, and the category cannot be changed.
-----------------------------
3. Adult Content Headshots -
Most don't realize that your Headshot (logo) shows not only on your
homepage which is open to the general public, but on the message boards
in your network, on every post or reply you've ever made, and ALSO in
the Viewing History of every page you've ever been to. And when you
change your headshot, it changes in all those places at the same time.
So keep headshots and logos clean at all times!
4. Spamming - Multiply has zero
tolerance for spamming and has safeguards in place to protect accounts
and groups from being spammed. However, spammers create new tricks
every day to try to get around these. So occasionally it gets
through. Multiply deletes Spammer accounts very quickly, and it shows
the user name as xxxx once deleted. (though the thread may still be there awaiting deletion by a group admin) No need to report spam if you see
this as the user name, as it as already been taken care of. However,
contact customer service immediately with the link to the spammers
page, and the link to the threads that were spammed if the account is
showing active. It's OUR Multiply. Let's all take care of it.
NOTE: SPAM can take many forms. So please be cautious in posting links to your Multiply site or group to another
multiply site or group as a way of getting new contacts or group
members. It is wise to get expressed permission by a site or group
admin before linking to your site or group.
5. Flooding - Repeated malicious
postings at the same or multiple sites, same thread or multiple
threads. This constitutes malicious conduct.
6. Commercial Use - Multiply is a free service for the personal use of individual members only and not to be used for any commercial reason. Put simply, don't open a store on Multiply OR open a Multiply account for the purpose of linking to a commercial site!
7. ID Harvesting & PM Spamming - Don't use Multiply's free service to harvest email addresses or Multiply ID's for the purpose of spamming. Don't allow anyone else to sign into your account for that purpose either. (Protect your password)
8. Soliciting funds or funding for any reason, either commercial or non-profit. Just don't ask for money from other members for any reason.
9.
Copyrights and Trademarks - You may not post, distribute, or reproduce in any way any
copyrighted material, trademarks, or other proprietary information
without obtaining the prior written consent of the owner of such
proprietary rights. (PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS ESPECIALLY REFERS TO MUSIC, even Music set to "contacts only") Please read TERMS at the bottom of your page.
Accepting
the Terms of Service during the setup of
our account is the contract we sign with Multiply. This is
just a few suggestions and is not inclusive. For more information and
details, please review the TOS, in the right rail or click on "Terms" at the bottom of every Multiply page.
Please help keep Multiply safe and help Multiply keep you safe as well!

 You may discover that in landing on some of the homepages at Multiply, two things. Not only are there no google ads in the right rail under the headshot, but some of the people here have been able to customize their right rail also.Originally Multiply offered paid subscriptions and those members were granted access to customizing their right rail. However, when Multiply went to all FREE accounts, new members no longer have this option. Previous members however retained this feature. That's not to say that Paid subscriptions won't be coming back! But for now that is not an issue being addressed by Multiply. Google Ads pay the Multiply bills. So they are necessary,to keep this great service up and running and FREE to all members. Attempts to alter google ads on your Multiply site can result in loss of your Multiply account. So let's allow Multiply pay it's bills on time and enjoy all the great services offered for FREE. :)
