There is one Guideline to be approved for this group. 

If you are new to CM or returning to CM, please make sure you have these 3 things on your profile before you join this group:

Avatar has to be a photo.
Photos on your profile. (Does not have to be of your children)
You have to belong to other groups. (More then just the Newcomers Group)

Also, if you have photos and/or groups set as private on your profile PLEASE let us know when you apply. The photos HAVE to be on your profile, no where else. We will not accept external links to other websites and we will not accept you sending us photos to review. The photos need to be on your profile at the time of joining this group or you will be denied.

If your whole profile is private you will be sent a message from the {PhotoMoms} profile. You will have 2 days (48 hours) to invite the profile as a friend. If you do not respond within that time frame you will be denied.

How to add photos to your profile:

Go to the widget that says 'photos'. At the bottom of that widget it says 'Add a Photo'. Click that and then go and make an album. After that it's self explanitory.

Please be advised that what you see as your profile is not alway what everyone else sees. Go under your Avatar photo and it says, "See My Profile". Click on that and that is what everyone else sees. If you can't see photos and/or groups on that page it usually means that you have your profile set on private.

I have one main rule in this group, NO DRAMA of any kind. If you do not like what you are reading, leave the post or contact one of the admin's for assistance. We will not tolerate any nasty or arrogant behavior. If we feel it necessary we will delete and ban anyone who breaks this rule, from the group.

As we all know, sometimes words do not come across as we intended, it is very helpful to use LOL's and :) to show you are not responding with negativity or anger. This is a large group, which can be difficult to deal with at times, drama only makes everyone uncomfortable and destroys the reason for this group, to help others.

oops forgot this one. Post ONLY your own images or images you have permission to use. If they are not your images but have permission, please mention that in the post. We are a bunch of photographers who are very possessive about our copyrights and the copyrights of others.

We do have the right to add new rules as we see fit. :)

Outside of the above rule, we are a bunch of fun loving photographers and hope you enjoy our little corner of the world. So sit down, put your feet up and let out a sigh of relief, because you just joined one of the best groups on Cafemom!!
