I forgot my password. Help!
You can have your login information resent to you via email by going to the 'Forgot Password' page. If that email address is no longer working you can call us or email us and we can look up your login info for you.

How can I reset my password?
On your account settings page there is an option to 'Change Password'. Click that link and update either of them at any time.

How do I know how many people have viewed my profile page?
Your Traffic Statistics page shows an overview of traffic to your portfolio.

How can I temporarily hide my portfolio from the public?
There are 3 privacy options, which can be changed at anytime:

Privacy
*Show profile and portfolio to others
*Portfolio accessible via personal url only
*Do not show profile and portfolio

Image specifications:
Images: jpg, jpeg, gif, png
Movies: .mov .qt
Flash: .swf
Shockwave: .dcr, .dir, .dxr

Do not use spaces when you name your files. Each of your images should be kept at around 100k. Images should be saved at 72dpi.

Images should be saved in RGB color mode not in CMYK. This is very important, your image will not show correctly if it is not saved in RGB mode.

The size of the image can vary, but we suggest making your images no more than 700 pixels wide. Try a variety of sizes to determine what looks best for each image.

The system automatically-generates your thumbnail image for you, but you also have the option of uploading your own thumbnail instead.

How do I send someone a link to my online portfolio?
Your Coroflot portfolio comes with a personal URL that you can send to friends and potential employers as a direct link. The default personal URL is www.coroflot.com/{your_user_name}. Your "User Name" is the name you use to log-in to the site. So, if your User Name is "CoreJr" your personal URL is "www.coroflot.com/CoreJr".

You can change your Personal URL at any time. On the "Edit Profile" form you'll see a field labeled "Personal URL". This is where you can change your Personal URL.

How long before my portfolio is on line?
Your portfolio goes on line immediately. If you have just created your portfolio and you don't see it appearing where it should, check the "Privacy" setting described above.

My portfolio doesn't appear in searches.
Check your privacy settings within your account. If the Privacy setting is set to private, your portfolio will not show up in search results. To have your portfolio appear in search and browse results your privacy setting should be set to "Show profile and portfolio to others."
