How do I add or change my photo?
The custom photo uploading feature is currently undergoing some maintenance, but it will be back soon.
Do I have to use a photo of myself?
If you're bashful or camera shy, we provide some sample photos to choose from, or you can go with the ever-popular image of a kitty cat. Suggestion: People respond better to images of individuals within their own species. Just a suggestion. Plus, people are 10 times more likely to read posts with photos. Thumbnails are hot.
Go to your profile page and click on the "Blogs" tab. To add a new blog, click "Add blog" and compose away.
How do I add a link in my blog?
Website addresses automatically turn into links after you post a blog, so if you add "http://www.peoplejam.com/" then the address will be clickable.
How do I embed a YouTube video?
You can't. Sorry. In the future we plan to add the ability to embed video from around the web.

What does clicking on "Jam" and "Slam" do?
If you really like someone's blog post, click on the "Jam" button to give it a point. Blogs with the most "Jams" are featured at the top of the lists.
If you really hate a blog post, find it offensive and/or offensively stupid, click on the "Slam" button to vote it down to the very bottom of the lists.
Can I "Jam" or "Slam" the same post more than once?
Unlike the state of Florida, PeopleJam policy is one vote per person. However, if you're hellbent on Slamming or Jamming the same post more than once, you can do so by creating multiple user accounts registered at different email addresses. Do you really have that much time on your hands? Wow.
People can contact you via private messages (through PeopleJam). Go to your profile, and click "Messages" to see your private messaging center.
