7. How do I upload photos?
You can upload photos via the Add Photos link on your photos page on the MocoSpace Website, or directly from your phone by sending a message with your photo to [Your Upload Code]@mocospace.com, for example 8729832@mocospace.com. Your unique upload code can be found on your Home page, be sure to keep it secret!

Photos must be less than 2 MB and in GIF, JPG or PNG formats and cannot contain obscene language, nudity, or violent, offensive or copyrighted material. If you send the message with a subject, that subject will be used as the caption.

Photos must first be approved before becoming available. This usually takes only a few minutes. If your pictures still aren't uploading please send us your model of phone, service provider, and a description of any error messages.

11. What can I do if another MocoSpace user is harassing me?
All sites have losers unfortunately, the best advice we can give is to simply ignore them, and most of the time they will soon leave you alone. You can add any offending users to your Ban list by clicking the Ban link on their profile page, and you can also set your profile privacy to Friends under Account Settings. In chat rooms, you can use the ignore feature under Options. If it persists, please report the user using the Report link located on their profile page, or email support@mocospace.com with the user's name and profile details, and let us know if you have previously reported the user in question.

Unfortunately, it's impossible to prevent people from posting information here or on other Websites, chat rooms, instant messengers, etc. We do our best to enforce the site's Terms of Service. If appropriate, we will delete information from posts and/or cancel accounts when necessary. We also recommend that you read and follow our safety tips and suggestions.
