"Skins" are added to profiles and Lounges in order to create color and special effects. fubar skins are created from CSS coding. fubar will not create these codes for you, but there are several pre-made ones available that work with fubar that can be found at your skins page. You can also create your OWN original skin by dropping your codes in to the CREATE A SKIN page within your MY SKINS link. Skins can also be custom made to suit your color scheme.

From your homepage, right below the gift box, click the "My Trackz" Tab, which will open up to your current playlist. On the bottom of that list, you'll see a red bar, and at the right corner another link that says "My Trackz".
That link will take you to the page where you can update your tracks. Currently, the search trackz field has been disabled on fubar. But, you can delete and edit the current default tracks from this page, as well as add your own tracks.
To add your own tracks or music video, scroll to the bottom where it says "enter new track below". This requires that you have html code for the music or music video. **fubar does not provide this code for you; you must find your own code.** You can easily find sites that provide these codes using an internet search engine. Once you've entered the html code, the artist and track title, hit the "submit" button. This will add it to your playlist, where you can choose to autoplay it or not on your profile.

Yes, fubar is a free site. There are additional features and upgrades, such as VIP status, Blasts , fu Marriage, Happy Hours, Bling, Auto 11s , Cherry Bombs, Extra 11s and Sticky Bulletins that you can enjoy for a fee.
fubar makes it easy to meet people with similar interests and desires by using our SEARCH feature to find members who live in your area. This special search link is located midway on the gray header bar from your home page. You can search by member name, sex, or zip code, and narrow it down by limiting miles around your home town!
fubar is an 18 and over site. If you see an underage member, report to any of our bouncers or fubar Support. The member ID or URL to their profile is needed to investigate and their account will be deleted as soon as possible if underage. You can find a bouncer here.
Your Shoutbox? is your private chat area -- only you can read the messages inside your Shoutbox?. With this feature you can instantly chat with anyone on fubar. You can send someone a shout in three ways:
1) Click on the Shoutbox links throughout fubar (i.e. on a member profile in the upper left hand side, on a bulletin, etc.) or
2) Click on the member's name when it appears in your Shoutbox?.
3) Use the "IM:" field inside the window that pops up when you preview a profile.
When you click on the shout link to chat with another member, a box with their profile stats will pop up. You can start typing as soon as it opens, or you might need to move your cursor inside the text entry field before typing, then hit ENTER to send.
When talking to multiple members at once, you can click on their name, and when the box opens up to chat, click the "open shoutbox" link and it will open a separate shoutbox between you and that member.
To clear your Shoutbox click on the white icon (person throwing trash away) inside your Shoutbox? window. This will clear all of your Shoutbox? window contents.
If your Shoutbox stops working, it is likely that you have been given a 'timeout' for spamming. This is avoided by not sending the same message to numerous users.
Your password can be changed by going to your Home Page and clicking on the 'My' drop down menu and selecting 'Settings' on the top left hand side of your page.

Please write it down in a safe place. NEVER give out your password to anyone.
You can recover your lost password by using our password recovery system.

An email from fubar will be generated to your signup address account (ie-your Yahoo, AOL, Gmail account, etc) where you will be prompted to follow the verification process. If you cannot find the email, please be sure to check in your spam and bulk filters as the email can get trapped in there. If you have trouble entering the token onto the verify email page, please try it through a different browser as some browsers, dependent on your system, do not take the verify token.

The online bar is the scrolling bar located at the top of every page on fubar. It features fubar members who are online at the moment. If you upload a primary photo, you will show up there as well!
Having a mobile address allows you to send photos from your mobile phone directly to your profile, without a normal computer/internet browser. The photos will immediately appear on your profile, and your friends will receive an alert that you have uploaded a mobile photo.
To configure a mobile address, click on "My' in the upper left corner of your homepage and choose "Settings" from the scrolldown menu. Then select 'click here to test/change/set your mobile address' in the lower lefthand corner.
Once you have configured a mobile address, simply send the photo to mobile@fubar.com from your phone! The photo will be available on your profile immediately! If you are having trouble configuring your phone, keep in mind that some phones and phone services are NOT compatible with our system.
If you have photos on your mobile that are NSFW (more details on Not Safe For Work content), you can now send them to mobile-nsfw@fubar.com -- which will flag them as NSFW automatically and keep you out of trouble.
Just click on the LEAVE COMMENT link in the upper left hand of a member's profile, or scroll to the bottom of their comments on their profile page and type in the comment field. If you're unable to leave a comment, it is likely that the member has set their comment permissions to friends/fans/family only. Typed and HTML are allowed in the comments, unless the page owner denies HTML styled comments. NSFW and commercial comments are prohibited.
Just click on the SEND PRIVATE MESSAGE link in the upper left hand corner of a member's profile. Or you can click on the message icon in the tooltip of the person you wish to send a message.
Tooltips are those nifty small boxes of information that appear when you put your mouse over someone's image or name. The information displayed includes the persons name, photo, location, Rank, rating, direct links to their profile and photo pages as well as quick ways to interact with them!
A Friend must accept your request to become a Friend. A Fan can become a Fan of anyone on the site. fubar has celebrity guests and athletes and they can get overwhelmed with Friend requests so it is easier sometimes just to become a Fan.
fubar members are unable to remove fans unless they are blocked from your account by you.
Members can use our Search feature that is located at the top right hand corner of your home page. General Search for those on fubar or Web via Google search; Location Search to find those members who are 10 -100 miles of the ZIP code that you type in, and you have a selection of locating Women only, Men only, Don?t care, and can select by relationship status. Member Search searches by Name or Email Address.
At the current time, location search only includes zip codes within the USA.
The Help link is located at the top right hand side of your Home Page.
Please read the entire fubar Bible. Many of your questions will be answered here. If your question is not answered in the fubar Bible, please stop by the fubar Support Lounge, our 24 hour technical support chat room run by volunteer members who are standing by to help problem solve any questions. You can also stop by the fubar Support Blog for up-to-date site information as it breaks. If you do not get the answer you are looking for, please contact an orange highlighted name or browse the fubar Bible and Newbie Tutorials under the HELP link on the upper right navigation. If you still do not find the answer you are looking for, you can also leave a private message for fubar Support. Please allow up to 48 hours for a response, and keep in mind that your email may not be answered if it is addressing an issue that can be found in the fubar Bible, fubar Support Lounge, or fubar Support Blog.
You can open your messages by clicking on the yellow "new messages" link within your Bar Tab at the top, left of your Home Page, or by clicking into the MY link and selecting MESSAGES from the drop down menu. This will take you to your message page where you can read, reply and delete messages.
When in your inbox, check the white box next to each entry that you wish to delete and hit the "delete" link. Your page will refresh with your current messages.
If you receive an alert that says you have 1 unread message, but there appear to be no messages in your inbox, click on the yellow alert and when the tooltip drops down, click into the message through the tooltip. Once on that message, select delete. OR, you can wait for new messages to come in, and once they do, delete all messages which will clear the "1 unread" alert.
Once a message is deleted, you cannot retrieve it. fubar does not store any old or deleted messages.
A Bulletin is a message that can be sent to your Friends or all of your Friends plus Fans. To create a bulletin, click on the My Bulletin Board link from your homepage, then click on the "post a new bulletin!" link. You will see an option to send the bulletin to all of your Friends or both your Friends and Fans. Type in the subject and content of your bulletin and hit the "post" button to submit. You can also Preview your bulletin first to see how it will be viewed once it is sent.
If you want to make sure that your bulletin is seen, you can 'Sticky' it so that it sticks in the top of your Friends, or all of your Friends plus Fans bulletin space for 24hrs. When you are creating a bulletin there click the yellow 'Make Sticky' link. If you see a Friend's bulletin that you like, you can sticky that as well by clicking on the bulletin, then clicking the 'Make Sticky' box.
fubar prohibits posting of commercial and NSFW content in bulletins.
When you read a bulletin in your bulletin board, there is a button to "repost" the bulletin. Reposting is often necessary because the person who posted the bulletin might not be friends with everyone who you're friends with so it allows you to "repost" the bulletin in your bulletin board to all YOUR friends. This way, your friends can see it too without you having to cut & paste. A small note is added to the bottom of the post to indicate who reposts it. It costs 10 fuBucks to re-post bulletins.
Please do not repost NSFW or commercial materials in the bulletins.
Click on the "my bulletin board" link at the top of your bulletins on your homepage. You will be given the option to delete from there.
From the your Home Page, the bulletin link can be found mid-page at the top of the bulletins listed ("My Bulletin Board").
Your bulletins can be viewed from your bulletin board alongside bulletins from your friends and fans. Click into your bulletin board page to see the views, comments, and date posted. You can only delete your own bulletins from the site.
If you wish to share your bulletin or others' bulletins to members outside of fubar, select the bulletin of choice and then click on the green "share this!" link at the bottom of the page. Follow the prompts and hit "share!" to complete.
Your limit on commenting and photo rating depends on your level and ranges from 5 to 2000. Once you have reached your daily limit, it will take 24 hours to reset.
You can turn off email alerts by going to your Home Page and clicking on the "My" drop down menu and selecting "Settings" on the top left hand side of your page. Look for the "email alerts" tab and make sure it says "off", then scroll down to the bottom of the page where you will be asked to enter a code (Bouncer ID check) and click "submit" in order for your new settings to take place.
The Crush feature allows members to anonymously have crushes on other members. Any member can have a crush on any other member, but only one crush can be given out per member. However, any given member can have multiple crushes from multiple members.
To select your crush, go to their profile and hit the "Make my crush!" link below their primary photo. Once you've selected your crush, they will be sent an alert that tells them that someone anonymously has a crush on them. You must be level 3 or greater to have a crush on someone.
Lounges are areas on the site created by fubar members where multiple members can meet in one place all at once and chat. By default, you are automatically subscribed to the fubar Support Lounge upon signing up. Members can easily subscribe and unsubscribe to their favorite lounges.
Click on the "My" drop down menu on the gray headerbar and select "lounges" on the top left hand side of your page. Look for the "create a lounge" link and follow the prompts. Keep in mind that fubar Support will NOT teach you how to create a lounge, but you can likely find help from power members and bouncers when visiting the fubar Support Lounge. You must be level 10 or greater to create a lounge and it costs 100, 000 fubucks.
The following rules must be followed in your lounge. Not doing so will result in your lounge being locked or deleted:
NOTE: If your lounge is popular, you'll make some fuBucks every week. If nobody uses it, you'll be charged a few fuBucks to keep it open after a week. If your account is inactive for 90 days *AND* you fail to pay your weekly inactive lounge fee, your lounge will automatically be removed. You can delete your lounge any time.
Click on the "My" drop down menu on the gray headerbar and select "lounges" on the top left hand side of your page. Look for the "browse lounges" link. You can browse by name, number of members, and date created.
A private lounge is invite only. This means that you must be invited by the owner (creator) of the lounge to be a member. We do not allow any type of pay for cam services. This includes donations or anything that is soliciting publicly or privately on the site. Your account will be removed immediately. GO AWAY STUPID WEB CAMMERS!
Once you have subscribed to a lounge and no longer wish to be a member, you can unsubscribe by simply going back into that lounge. An "unsubscribe from this lounge" link will have taken over the "subscribe to this lounge" link. Click on that, and it will delete that lounge from your list of lounges. (If it does not reset right away, clear your cache and cookies.)
fubar does not provide webcam plug-ins. However, members can add webcams to their Home Page by creating an account at www.stickam.com. Once your account is created, plug the code into one of the fields on your "edit profile" page, such as the "About Me" section and submit. We do not allow any type of pay for cam services. This includes donations or anything that is soliciting publicly or privately on the site. Your account will be removed immediately. GO AWAY STUPID WEB CAMMERS!
Please check out our emoticons page to see a list of available emoticons and the text combinations to generate them.
Sure! If you don't agree with the sense of style other members have, you can go to your profile settings page and set Ignore Profile Skins to Yes. With this setting enabled, all member pages will be rendered with the normal fubar style.
Sure! If you don't want to see other members music / video content that's embedded on their profiles or comment areas, go to your profile settings page and set Filter Embedded Content to the level you'd like.
Note: Turn this on if you're annoyed by profiles that load slowly or crash your computer-- that's normally caused by someone with 10 or 50 videos embedded on their page... yikes!
HMTL coding can be used within your About Me, Music, Interests and Comments. CSS (cascading style sheets) coding is applied to our skins/ layouts for your Lounges and profile skin layouts. You can NOT use HTML on your Home Page or Lounge "Skins". Flash coding is restricted from most areas of the site. If it doesn't work, it is probably blocked.
fubar premade skins can be found at this link: fubar Premade Skins - from TweakYourPage.com. If you are familiar with CSS coding, you are welcome to code a skin for yourself, but fubar will not do this for you nor will fubar aid you in this process. There are a lot of very helpful members and Bouncer staff that are willing to help you create yours if you stop by the fubar Support Lounge and request some assistance.
From your Home Page, click the "edit my skins" below your avatar in the middle of the page. The "Edit my skins" feature allows members to easily edit their page layout or browse other members? designs to rip their skins. You can activate multiple skins and one will be selected at random each time someone checks your profile.
fubar uses CSS coding for skins. Most HTML will NOT work for skins. FuBar does allow for some html coding to be placed in the various sections for skins and/or tag additions.
Please refer to this link for examples of CSS coded skins: fubar Premade Skins - from TweakYourPage.com. You can also create your OWN original skin by dropping your codes in to the CREATE A SKIN page within your MY SKINS link.
If you are browsing around fubar and you see a skin you like, you can "rip" the skin by scrolling down to the bottom of the page and clicking on the "rip this skin" link. In order to activate, you must click on the "Edit my skins" link from your fubar homepage.
Go back into your TRACKZ page and select the "delete" link next to the track you wish to delete and follow the prompts.
Per our terms of service, section 7 regarding member disputes: You are solely responsible for your interactions with other fubar.com Members. fubar.com, Inc. reserves the right, but has no obligation, to monitor disputes between you and other Members.
fubar gives you the ability to BLOCK any member. fubar staff and bouncers will NOT get in the middle of member disputes.
Go to the person's page that you want to block and look on the left hand navigation links for BLOCK THIS USER. Click on the BLOCK THIS USER link and approve the block. Blocking a member prohibits them from messaging you, commenting on your page, bulletins, blogs, stashes, mumms and blocks them from being able to rate your pictures or profile. Blocking a member does NOT stop them from coming on to your page to look around.
fubar is a community regulated site. If you see NSFW photos, comments, stash items, blogs, mumms or any NSFW material in a public area, please click on the NSFW flag. If you can not locate the NSFW link, please report to a bouncer (orange) here.
Please do not abuse our NSFW flagging. Any malicious flagging will lead to your account being suspended or deleted.

You earn points while you surf and interact on fubar. When you reach a certain level, you will unlock features and benefits such as increased photo storage, ability to rate and comment more photos, ability to create MuMMs and more. You can see your point total on your home page or profile page. Points also help your Ranking; the more points you have in comparison to everyone else on the site, the higher your ranking! babyjesus does not reveal how many points you receive for what action, but you receive points for nearly everything you do to interact on fubar. Points are awarded when you:
Host a Happy Hour- get a commission of ALL points made during your Happy Hour
VIP- members earn $10,000 fuBucks signing bonus! (See details about more benefits under the VIP description and learn how you can earn even more points and special gifts!)
Give out Bling and earn credits for yourself and those you give it to
Run Auto 11s so all rates count as an 11!
Run a Cherry Bomb and rate whole folders at a time for an entire hour
Hint: There are some things not listed which earn you points too! ;-) But that is one of babyjesus' secrets that shall not be revealed.
Your fubar ranking is a sum of different aspects of the site. It is calculated based on your overall rating, the number of times you have been rated, how often your profile is viewed, how many people you have invited and joined fubar, and how many fans you have.
Photos flagged as NSFW will not get any points for ratings and comments. Photos you have ripped from other users also do not earn you points.

The PURPLE highlighted names designate the top 10 promoters who have generated the most legitimate referrals in the last 24 hours. To become a Top Promoter, you need to refer and successfully join a higher amount of new users compared to other members.
As you earn Points, you will also earn fuBucks. Points and fuBucks are basically the same, except that you can spend your fuBucks, which will make the amount decrease as you spend. Points will always accumulate and never decrease. You can use these fuBucks to buy virtual gifts for anyone on fubar! Use them to either flirt, cheer someone up, or just for fun! You will find the fubar Gift Shop link on a member's profile page in the top left section. fuBucks can also be used to buy users in fuOwned and to purchase extra guesses in the Admirer game!
fuPal is a fubar feature that allows users to transfer their fuBuck funds to other users. You may do this because one of your friends is broke and needs to pay their lounge fee, or because you want to help them bid for spotlight! Why you transfer them is up to you. Keep in mind however, that you will be charged a transaction fee of 20% of the amount you transfer. For example, if you transfer 100 fuBucks to someone, your account will be charged a total of 120 fuBucks. Keep this in mind when transferring large amounts. If you do not have a salute, the transaction fee is 50%
You can access fuPal by going into the fubar Gift Shop and selecting the fuPal option at the top or buy going to the page of the user you want to give funds to and clicking on the fupal logo under their photo.
The Gift Shop is where you can give FREE virtual drinks, beers, gifts and other items for your friends on fubar. To give a gift, you only need to earn fubucks, which you do just by using the site!
A GREAT ice-breaker! A virtual gift can be "purchased" with fuBucks from the fubar Gift Shop. There are a variety of items to choose from and gifts range in price from 50 to over 1,000,000 fuBucks. When you browse someone's profile you will see a link at the top left of their page that says, "GIVE A GIFT!". Click on that link and you will be able to buy that person a virtual gift. You can also click on the ?Gifts? link on the top of your page and choose friends to give gifts to, or you can click on the "give gift" link in the tooltip when you hover over their thumbnail.

rewards you by giving bonuses for when your friends join and use - 5,000 fuBucks and points per friend! Here's how it works:
We cannot track your fuBucks, so it is up for you to track your own point rewards as they come to you. If you do not see your referral on your join page, then it's likely that they did not join successfully under your invite, and their user error will not send you credit. This could have happened because they signed up on the same computer as you sent them the link or email from, or they were previously a fubar member. You also will not receive the referral points/fuBucks if you are frozen at level 5 or level 10 due to level up requirements at the time they joined.
Initially you can upload 50 photos at the Freshmeat level, but it goes up quickly from there once you begin interacting with fubar and increasing your level. Please refer to the Levels to see how much photo storage you unlock with each level. Also, check out our fuMall and participate in one of our offers, or purchase a Blast for a quick point increase! You can also benefit from an enormous amount of photo storage by purchasing a VIP membership which allows up to 5000 photos!
Photos can easily be uploaded into your gallery by clicking on the "My" link on the gray header bar and then selecting the "Photos" link in the drop down menu. From your images page, click the "Add Images" link at the top right of the page. Unless otherwise specified, the photos will be automatically uploaded to your Default Album. You can also click on the add/edit photos link directly below your profile picture on your homepage.
You have a single and multi upload option. Some photos (such as gifs) upload more efficiently with the single uploader and not all browsers will work with the multi-loader. Select the photo(s) you wish to upload and hit "Send" or "Upload Image". Depending on your connecting speed and the amount of photos you are uploading, this can take from 3 seconds to several minutes. If your photos do not upload, restart and try again.
Check the size or the style of your image that you are trying to upload. Photos can not exceed the maximum image size is 1MB. Valid image types are: JPG, PNG, & GIF.
Click on the "My" link and select "Photos" on the top left hand side of your page. Once inside your gallery, find the image you want to set as your primary photo or avatar. Click on the link right below the photo you wish to make your default that says "Set as my primary photo." You can also click on the add/edit photos link below your profile photo on your homepage. Once you are in your gallery, click the link that says "Set as my primary photo" next to the photo you wish to use as your default. Setting inappropriate or adult photos that are not FLAGGED will result in the termination of your account.
fubar allows members to "rip" content from one another. It is always best to ask a member before you take a photo, skin or one of their trackz. Each "ripped" item will show the path of its originator. fubar will NOT get involved in "ripped? photo disputes. If you do not wish to have your photos "ripped", do not upload them to your gallery.
A photo is deemed NSFW if it is:
In addition to the above criteria, if a photo is a primary photo, it will be flagged as NSFW if it also contains a suggestive body part without the member's face in the photo. If you have a borderline photo that is not considered NSFW and it was marked as such, there's a chance someone who has ripped that photo is using it as a Primary Photo. Remember: The Bouncers will be MORE STRICT with those used as Primary Photos.
Accounts will be terminated for abusing the adult content policy. This includes your Home page, Bulletins, Comments, MUMMs, Stash, Blasts, Spotlight, and Blogs.
fubar will not dispute photos that they have marked NSFW as it is at their own discretion.
Click on the "My" link and select "Photos" on the top left hand side of your home page. You can also click the add/edit photos option under your default on your homepage. Once inside your gallery, select the album you wish to set to private from the list of albums on the left of your gallery. Look for the "album options" link at the top of the gallery next to the "delete album" link and right below your album title. You will be able to change the name of the album and adjust the privacy settings however you like by clicking on that link. fubar gives you the option to display albums to: everyone, friends only, family only and only myself.
Note: If you delete the name of your album during this process and save the changes, your photo album will become locked. Please make sure your photo albums are named.
Click on the "My" link and select "Photos" on the top left hand side of your page, or click on add/edit photos under your default picture on your homepage. Once inside your gallery, look for the prompt "Create New Album" at the bottom of the page. Name the album whatever you want and then click on the "Create Album" button.
Click on the "My" link and select "Photos" on the top left hand side of your page. You can also click the add/edit photos link under your default picture on your homepage. Once inside your gallery, look for the "set as background" link next to the photo(s) you wish to set as your background. You may opt to choose several of your photos, which will load in random order upon each refreshing of your Home Page.
A salute is a candid photo of yourself (showing your entire face, unobstructed by sunglasses, etc.) holding a HANDWRITTEN sign with your screen name, member ID, and fubar.com proving to the world that you?re the real person behind your fubar profile. Members often write their information on their hands, feet or other body parts. Please do not submit NSFW salutes. You will NOT be able to move up past level 20 without a verified salute. You'll also be awarded 50,000 fuBucks and points for your first approved salute!
If you do not submit a salute by level 20, your level will freeze along with your points. This means that, until you submit a salute to level up, you will not be able to accumulate points by participating in the day to day actions on fubar.
Submitting a salute is a level-up requirement. If you do not wish to submit a salute, that is OK, but your level will freeze at level 10.
Take a photo of yourself with the following information clearly displayed in the photo.
1. Your SCREEN NAME,
2. Your Member ID number, (which is located in the end of your URL address; www.fubar.com/user/22)
3. AND, the word:
The following items will be accepted as a complimentary addition to your salute:
You wearing a t-shirt or you in front of your homepage (not your profile page or any other page) that is CLEARLY visible.
Examples of acceptable salutes:
Upload your salute to your main gallery just like you would any other photo. Click on the "Submit as a salute!" link below the photo. Once you click to submit, a verification page will come up to confirm your entry. Confirm the photo(s) that you want to be verified and wait. Once your salute(s) is verified by our staff, it will appear at the top of your gallery page.
