I click "How do I get more attention to my profile?
There are several things you can do:
  1. Upload a good face shot photo of yourself.
  2. Post in the Forums and include a photo of yourself.
  3. Stay logged in. The longer you are online, the more other members will see your profile.
  4. Put other members on your "I Like" list
  5. Put other members on your "Buddy List" (If you know them)
Our best advice is just to be as visible as possible on the site.


I click "My Message Box and nothing happens
The most likely cause of your Message Box not appearing is that you have pop-ups blocked. The LeatherTribe MessageBox system runs in a pop-up window so you must have pop-ups enabled for LeatherTribe.com. The Message Manager will pop up automatically when you log in. In addition to enabling popups within your browser, be sure to enable them in any additional popup blocker that you may have. For example, the Google Bar which you may have installed, includes a popup blocker which will prevent the viewer window from appearing.


I have lost my screen name or password, what do I do?
Click the password finder link in the menu at the left. Enter your email address and our system will email your screen name and password to you. If our system does not email you your information, there are a couple of possible causes:
1. You may have spam filtering that is preventing our email from reaching you.
2. You may have previously cleared your email address to prevent unwanted emails. This is not necessary nor recommended. See the next help topic for information about preventing unwanted email from LeatherTribe.com.
