what is mydrobe?
mydrobe is a new and easy
way to organize your wardrobe, share your style with others, and find new
fashions!
does it cost anything to use
mydrobe?
mydrobe is and always will be free.
how do i get started?
first, you have to
sign up. click sign up above to get your free account.
once you sign up, you can begin filling up your
mydrobe with all of your clothes. if you have
a
digital camera, take a few minutes to take some pictures of your clothes.
just lay them on your bed and snap some pics, it doesn't have to be
perfect. then, click [New] to add
new clothes to your profile. you can fill in as little or as much as you
want. of course, the more you add, the easier it will be for you to find
your clothes.
do i need a digital camera to use
mydrobe?
it's not required, but everything on your profile will
come
up as question marks. ask for one when christmas, your birthday,
etc. comes around - you won't regret it!
when i add clothes, should i post pictures of me wearing
the clothes, or just the clothes themselves?
you can upload
either. whatever is more appropriate. most people just lay them on
the floor, but if you want to model, go for it. in fact, make a mydrobe
party out of it with friends and model your clothes.
what is the "burn pile"?
this is where the
clothes that you no longer have go. clothes in your burn pile are hidden
from your profile, but are still part of your old outfits and c-blog. if
you really want to get rid of something, you can delete it permanently from
your
burn pile.
i burned something by accident, what should i
do?
click 'restore', and then choose the right category for
your
clothes. that'll fix'er right up. :-)
what is the c-blog?
an c-blog is where you
can post pictures of yourself wearing the clothes that you put into your
mydrobe. once you have some clothes in your mydrobe, you can choose
[New] next to outfits and put in your picture. you can
then choose what you were wearing in the picture, just like in a
magazine!
what is an event?
an event (sometimes called
"votes") is where you can ask the world to dress you! people can look
through your clothes and put together an outfit for you for an upcoming
event! don't know what to wear tomorrow? just make an event!
you can get hundreds of votes and opinions from others!
how do i make an event?
first, make sure you
have some clothes added to your wardrobe. people need choices!
then,
click [New] next to events. put in a description of the event, choose an
ending date, and then click finish! it's that easy!
how do i know what date to put on an
event?
if you need a decision for what to wear or buy, maybe
put in
a day or two earlier. if it's something more general, it can be as long
or
short as you want. if you make it too long, then your event will end
after
you get 1,000 votes.
soon...
what is an avatar?
an avatar is a picture or
icon for yourself that other people see in your comments and in your
profile. most people put a headshot of themselves, but you can put in
anything.
what the HECK is an RSS feed?
an rss feed is
a special webpage that you can give to your friends to add to their favorite
newsreader, such as My Yahoo!, My AOL, etc. if you have no clue what that
means, don't worry about it :-)
can i suggest an outfit for someone else on
mydrobe?
sure! go to someone's profile and choose "make
an
outfit for ___". you can pick from their mydrobe and put something
together. it's great for if you want to coordinate outfits with a friend
for an upcoming outing!
how do i find more users on mydrobe? (coming
soon)
click browse at the top of any page. for now, it
just
lists a bunch of people. as the site gets bigger, this will
change.
can i delete my mydrobe account?
no, not
yet. it's okay if you decide to stop using it though.
i have a different question!
i'd like to
hear it. email me, and i'll answer for you and maybe also put it on this
page: kevin@dresskevin.com
