Your instructions in account settings don't say anything about a photo being made publicly available..

Are you saying that [i]after[/i] i submit this photo, I'll be asked to submit another for public view?
Nuno · Admin
@SW-User It will say at the time we request your second photo. Apologies for any confusion!

@Nuno
You need to add that to the stated verification process.

@SW-User There are two steps to verification, both optional. The first photo will remain private and allow you to recover access to your account if you lose your password. The second photo will be public and can be used by other members to judge whether other photos are of the same person.

@Nuno Can we be verified without submitting public photo.
SW-User
@Gentle153
A description of the second step is missing from the verification instructions.
It's going to be annoying to be asked for a second public picture after I've already submitted a private administration only pic..

You need to spell out the [i]complete [/i] process up front!

@Gentle153
Can i submit a photo for recovery purposes and omit the public verification photo?
Butterflykisses24 · 51-55, F
@Gentle153 thanks i dont do public photos.I only occassionally share mine with trusted friends.
Nuno · Admin
@SW-User Yep!
Butterflykisses24 · 51-55, F
@Nuno i just checked.All mod and admin are verified yet do not have public photos.Im confused by this step.Please clairify.
SW-User
@Nuno can i request that my public verification photo be taken down?
And will it be, if i choose to do so?

@Nuno [i][c=#BF0080]Will the second pic(being public) be holding the paper with that info too? [/c][/i]
Gentle153 · 36-40, MMod
@SW-User You can delete that photo at any time, though that will revoke your validation status.

@MellyMel22 The picture holding the paper will remain private. The optional public picture does not require a paper with details.

@Gentle153
Understood, thank you.

@SW-User One addition: if you choose to remove your photo, causing you to lose your verification status, you can always request to be verified again by uploading a different public photo.
SW-User
@Gentle153 got it, thanks!
