Hi Kids: I have found MySpace pretty much staightforward and easy to navigate. First you need to join. This is the point where you must decide to join as an individual wanting to meet friends, or as a musician. The difference is that when you join as a musician, you get a free music player like the on you see on my site. Then, it's pretty much self-explanatory within MySpace, who have done a nice job setting things up...All you need to know is on the site.

No, you do not need to put up a photo, although looking at a gray square is not all that appealing or interesting to anybody checking you out. At this point my page is the same basic, no frills page that I got when I started...No wallpapers or embellishments. Just go on myspace and start clicking on photos or things that interest you. You are then allowed to send a message, or add someone as a friend. You also have the option to block anybody from contacting you. a nice "Anti-Creep" feature. You will not get emails unless you provide that information ON THE SITE. If you have made a mistake in your choice of friends(as in life) it's your option to delete that friend. If somebody sends a request, you either say yes, deny them, or ignore them. If you hit deny, they won't see it. So if you see a wacko...whack 'em...
You can either use a photo or some other uploadable piece of art for your page. Anything you do can be changed, edited. So, not to worry...

Really quite simple and fun. All kinds of stuff to see. As in life just stay away from anything bad and you should be O.K. Everything's under your control...

It's all there waiting for you check it out...If you don't like it you can delete the account...

Azizi: Since you have an interest in Goddesses and such, you could use something like that for your photo. Want to put up some of your songs? Create a musician's account. When you log in, you enter your email, then you create a private password that will only show up as dots to anybody else besides you and the staff at MySpace. MySpace has only sent me relevant information in the near 3 years that I've been with them...bob
