Before you upload any pics or anything too personal onto Facebook. Please think about who you want to see your personal details. There is a box on the right called privacy that gives you the opportunity to limit who sees your info. Tick *your friends only* and you will be quite safe to share your details amongst your true friends.

The internet is a big and scary place. If you want to keep your private life private - give that box a tick and you'll be fine xx

Too right Muffy, good advice.

Wouldn't want people to use anything in an untoward manner.

I have nothing at all to hide, but I still have the right to privacy and dont have to lay myself open to the whole world to prove it.

Quite true, Muffy. Alas, people - even from this very site - have been known to copy and use other peoples' photographs for malicious purposes.

Sound advice.

Maggy, as Muffy said, just click on privacy at the top right and make sure only your friends can see anything, and make sure search is set to friends only too.

I don't know what you mean about 'scoring points', Teresa. Luckily, I'm very happy with what and who I am and don't give a flying flap who sees what:)

Should I add a please keep nudged to this thread?.

I believe the privacy issue is very important with this -not least for the fact that people may be posting pics of their kids - this is all the more reason to keep this to the top considering so many people have joined recently?

Anyone agree?
