Registration

Over time I have seen a lot of visitors sign up and never activate their account. This could be for one of the following reasons:

  • They changed their mind
  • The email addresss  entered was invalid (spammers do this)
  • They didn’t receive the email confirmation message and click the link
  • The email confirmation message was redirected to their spam folder

When you sign up, you will need to click the link in the Email Address confirmation message. If you do not receive it, look at your blacklist and/or spam folder. If it’s there, you will need to remove chinamiss.com and chinamiss.net from your spam list. If you didn’t get the email message, you can contact us using the same email address you signed up with and let us know. To contact us, use the Contact form in China Miss International. Both male and female members must verify their email address.  Until you click this link to confirm you email address, you will remain in Pending status. You cannot logon or change your profile and no one else can view your profile.

For male members, once you click the link you are upgraded to Free Member status. This is a limited registration. You logon, update your profile, view and search female members profiles, but cannot contact them. They, however, can contact you. That is when you need to make the decision to upgrade to Full membership. At the moment, it’s only $19.95 for six months. We only accept Paypal, but will soon include Visa and Master Card credit cards along with Google Check Out. If you want to send us a Check or Money Order, we accept those as well. Just send them to: 87 West 38th Street, Bayonne, NJ 07002. Your registration will not be upgraded until your check or money order clears.

Add as much information in your profile as possible. This is how others can find you and decide whether they want to send you a message. Put in your city and state (province) to give members an idea of where you live. Add at least one photo. A good picture helps more than anything. For more information on photos, see Photo Tips and Techniques. If you have any questions regarding registration.

Photo Tips and Techniques

Now that the photo upload feature is fixed on ChinaMiss.com and the top of your head is no longer removed, here are some requirement and suggestions you may want to consider when adding photos to your profile. You can post up to five photos for your profile. You can also add text that explains each photo.

About Adult Photos

For photos that you only want to share with some one special, select Yes for Adult photos. For those than may not know, Adult photos are not the opposite of Children photos.  Adult, when referring to photos, videos on a Web site in the USA and other countries, means photos of a person that may be in various states of undress, or completely naked. You (and our members) do not want these type of photos to display publically on our site. If posting these type of photos, make sure you select Yes for Adult and so do not make them your Primary photo. In fact, if you can’t help yourself from uploading these types of photos, adding a password for your Adult photos would prevent this.

Other Considerations

Take some effort to consider the quality of your photo added to your profile. Consider it a “first impression” kind of thing. If you are looking for a wife, a grungy t-shirt, baggy shorts and sunglasses and a pitch fork in your hand may not work all that well.  You can be natural and be yourself without those types of photos. I know you want the lady to “want you the way your are, but post at least one photo where you dress up and show a bit of class. If you have one, upload a professional portrait made. If you don’t have one, get one. You do not have to be rich to meet your China Miss, but at least let them feel you can afford a trip to China.  When adding a photo, let them see your face and not miles of background. Also smile, unless you think looking serious makes you sexier.

Your picture file cannot be any larger than 300K. That size is more than enough for any photo. However, if you want it to load quickly, keep the file size around 25 to 50K. If scanning, do not set the resolution to more than a 100 DPI. Anything over 96 DPI is a waste of pixles. If you need help posting your photo or want my personal opinion, contact me using the Contact Form on the main Web site with your request.

How to Upload Photos

Refer to the folloing screen for uploading photos. The first photo you upload will be your Primary unless you make it private by adding a password. You can always change which photo displays as your primary photo. There are only four steps to upload a photo. Step five is to upload another photo.

  1. Click Pictures button
  2. Click Browse to locate photo
  3. Leave No for unless your photo is rated XXX.
  4. Click Submit.
  5. Click Add Photo to upload another photo.
