** FAQ **

Why did you set up this site?
I set it up as a fun project. Hopefully if this site becomes popular enough, I'll make a little on the banner ads & offset some of the cost (smile). We'll also try to use it to link traffic to some of our other web pages (Nothing wrong with that).

Who may use the CoolFriend.Net Matchmaker web page?
The service is open to all (gay, straight, bi, male, female), but we ask that you be at least 18 years of age. We may remove or edit out inappropriate material.

What sortware are you running?
We are running the latest version of matching software (Midmart Matchmaker 2 PHP/ MySQL version).

How do I change my information?
You may change your information at any time. Just select "Edit Account" from the menu.

How do I upload my picture?
If you have a photo of yourself, up to about 20k in size, and in JPG or GIF format, you may upload it when you submit your profile (register as a new user). Or, you may upload it later. You can also replace your current photo with a different one at any time. Just make the appropriate menu selection. The software will automate the process for you, but you do need a graphical browser to do this (such as Netscape or Internet Explorer). Photo uploads do not work with text only browsers at this time. ** Please do not upload nude photos. Doing so will result in deletion of your account. **

How does the anonymous email work?
The anonymous email facility enables you to anonymously send an email message to a user who has joined Coolfriend.Net Matchmaker. You only see the user's name, not his true email address. And when your message is received, only your user name is shown to the recipient. It is possible for two people to continue to write back and forth anonymously, without ever knowing each other's true email addresses. However, for efficiency, you might want to tell the recipient your true email address when you write. If you reply to an anonymous email message, you must follow the instructions in the message; your reply button will not work properly. If you want to initiate a new anonymous email messasge, you should visit the Coolfriend.Net Matchmaker web page, locate the user, and use the anonymous email facility on the web page.

Is there a charge for this service?
This is a free service. If someone tries to charge you for it, they're lieing.
