I'm trying to upload an image, and I am getting an error message... what is wrong?
Solution:
Make sure the image you are attempting to upload is in one of the formats Political Majority accepts (.gif, .jpg).
Make sure the filename is simple and short, with no spaces or funny characters. "Image.jpg" is a good filename "Me at the beach! drinking some Bud Light~~.jpg" is probably not going to work.
Make sure the file is less than 10 MB. We do not allow uploads greater than 10MB in size.
If all else fails, try opening the picture in an image viewer to make sure the picture isn't corupt.

Reporting Abuse -
How do I block a user?
Solution:
Go to the profile of the user you would like to block.
Click 'Block User' in the profile's contact box (found underneath in the same box as "Send Message").

Someone is pretending to be me - what do I do?
Solution:
In order to verify your identity, please send us a "salute":
This means we will need an image of yourself holding a handwritten sign with the word "PoliticalMajority.com" and your User ID number (your User ID number appears immediately after "u=" in the web address/URL when viewing your profile). We can then remove the profile that uses your identity without your permission.
Please be sure to include the web address/URL to the profile in question when you send your salute.
If the profile is an extremely obvious attempt to be cruel/false, you may not need to send a salute. Sending a salute will help expedite things, though!
Click on the contact page and send us an email.
