Is there anyway that I could put photos online so only my friends can see them (without having an account or whatever)? Thanks.
There are a few sites for this, and all of them you have to make a free account.
http://www.picturetrail.com
^That's an okay site but after a while you can only have 180 pictures or so. To get more you have to pay for a premium account.
http://www.photobucket.com
^ I personally use that site. It works great and I havn't run into any problems with the amount of pictures I put up.
http://www.myphotoalbum.com
^ That one is awesome too. If you have a digital camera you can upload all the pictures on it all at once without it freezing. Or if you have a file of pictures, you can upload the whole thing onto the site, or just select a few to put on at once.
I hope I help.
Please rate! =D

The questions I am getting are from actual people. Advicenators.com has a humongous database full of users who need advice.
Lay off the drugs, Crackie. =D
Hi,
My name is Dominique from Alabama. But don't like tell anyone cuz its like confidential. Like i was like watching these kids the other day and like one of them like totally messed up the house. He like jammed stuff in the toilet and drew all over the kitchen in chocolate syrup. Like how do i contain the monsters?
I used to babysit the craziest kids ever down the street. They would always go insane and it was hard to get their attention. I brought over some old sing-a-long videos that I had or you can go to a Goodwill or flea market to get those. I also brought over paper and crayons and convinced them that their mom would love a pretty picture. If they still are out of control and the house is a mess. Make a game out of it. I told the kids that whoever cleaned their rooms the fastest they would get a piece of candy (in the end, I gave both of them candy so one wouldn't whine). Those methonds worked out pretty good for me.
I hope I help.
Hey, I was wondering what I should do when my B/F wants to have sex and I don't have a Douche Bag with me? Can I just use ceran wrap because my mom said it works?
Uh, I haven't heard of anyone using ceran wrap before. I would suggest just telling him to wait until you have one. Wikipedia.com says, " Many people suggest that douching is generally not a good idea, as the vagina is self-cleaning and douching interferes with the natural bacterial culture of the vagina, and it might spread or introduce infections." So maybe take that into consideration and not use one.
Or maybe use your mom's idea of using ceran wrap. Just make sure you do it correctly and that it's safe.
Hope I helped.
at least once a month, I get migraine(sp?) headaches. I dont know what causes them, but I cant take any medication for them because I dont like swallowing pills. I have never done it in my life and whenever I try i feel as if I am choking and almost throw up. Are there any migraine medications I can take where I dont have to swallow a pill? If not, is there any way I can get myself to swallow a pill without vomiting? thanks ♥
I also suggest the tilting of the head with the water idea. I get really bad migraines too. I went to a neurologist (head doctor) and I got prescribed medicine. I tried many different versions and they did have different kinds that are dissolvable (sp?); you just put them on the bottom of your tongue and it dissolves and they claim that it works faster.
Maybe check out a neurologist and check out the different types of dissolvable pills that they have.
Hope everything works out!
I have a problem where i eat WAY TOO much! but i hate the way I feel afterwards and last spring I stopped eating completely and I loved the way I felt and looked but when i went to camp i just started eating again.... All I can ever think about is food! I'm not fat! (I was actually voted hottest younger sister by my older sister's guy friends!!!) But I'm just uncomfortable with the way I look. I'm on the shorter side with huge boobs that make me look thinner then i am but still... I want to feel thin! HELP ME!!!!
Well, if you want to lose weight. Lose it the healthy way. Eat healthy by eating fresh fruits and vegetables and try to avoid the sodium (salt) and carbs. Try to work out every day, I walk around the neighborhood and listen to my ipod. Or if you have a dog, walk it every day. Once you do this for a while, you will get used to this lifestyle and the weight will eventually come off.
Good luck!
hpw do u no if sum1 likes u
Look aat my Advice column.. already answered one like this..
do you know any signs that may mean a guy likes you??
If he flirts with you, hangs around you, calls you... I don't know, all guys have different ways of flirting or expressing their feelings.

I am worried about my breasts. I am a female that's fifteen, pretty soon to be sixteen. My size is 34B, but it seems like my breasts always hurt, and not just around pre-menstrual times. Do you think it's normal or they're growing or I should see a doctor or what? Please help!
I think, that maybe you should talk to your mom or go see a doctor. If you think its not normal.
I hope everything works out

I'm a 15/F and I've been wanting to lose weight on my belly (fat) and thighs (they're huge!) I'm 5'4" about and I weigh about 106. I only really want to lose weight on my belly and my thighs, but I don't have anything to work out with. I don't want to have an eating disorder or cut back on food (I don't think I eat THAT much). What can I do?
Just walk around yor neighborhood everyday, Dont cut back on food, cause your Weight is normal for that height. Walking around everyday will tone you up.

Right now i'm in 8th grade and i came across your journal and i read the entry about the sterotypes and what not. Right now i go to a small school in new port richey and i live in tarpon. My school now has 109 people in all (middle and high school). Anyways i got accepted to PHUHS the IB thing and im going. Do you have any tips on how to make new friends or fit in and what not cuz i only know one girl thats gunna go there with me from my school and we mite not have any classes.
-you can IM me if you want on d3adh0m13z or something. thank u.
Hey,
Well, as of tips, just join afterschool clubs, when you get to class, sit next to someone new, start a conversation by saying "hey, I'm ______.
Then ask for there schedule and see if you have any other classes together, if so, at the end of that class, just say, seeyou in ___. If not, just be like" o man, no other classes together!" just be yourelf,and be outgoing. As of fitting in, be yourself, dont change yourself, everything will work out.

There is a school dance tonight and i'm not sure if i should go!! i want to but there are these girls who are mean and i'm afraid they might try to pick a fight with me tonight! Should i go? and if i go and they confront me what should i do? what should i say?
If you want to go, then go, however these people act doesn't mean it can prevent you to not do what you want to do. If they confront you, Just say "You have to be kidding me, you are trying to start a fight here? Grow up" and leave it at that, if they wont let you be, tell a chaparone and ignore them, A dance is supposed to be an occassion to have fun. Don't let them bug you. They are immature, stupid and need to grow up.
Hope i help

i've been eating a lot of candy for like the past 3 days, pretty much all ive ate was candy and chocolates and soda, n the only food was pizza and a hot dog. me and my parents are like 99% sure that i have diabetes and ive heard that one of the things that will happen to you when you have diabetes is mouth pain and i always have mouth pain, i have to tak 3 aspirins every morning so it wont hurt in school. so we thought it was a cavitty and we went to the dentist and there was nothing on the x ray so now were like positive its diabetes. anyways, today my mouth was hurting really bad so i took 4 aspirins and i couldnt take the pain and that hasnt helped so i took one more and it still was hurting so i went to go brush my teeth and wen i spit out blood came out and i checked my gums to see if they were just bleeding from the toothbrush and they werent so i just spit and blood came out in this thick mucus (sorry if thats gross) so i was kind of worried then it still hurt so i took 2 more aspirins cause the pain was unbearable. so basically i have taken 7 asprins and i only weigh 100 pounds, im really scared but no ones home and im scared to go to a neighbor or call 911..and i really dont want to puke, do you think ive over dosed or anything please help
It doies sound like you have taken WAY to many aspirin. you might want to call your mom or dad on their cell phones or at work? To me, it doesn't sound like you have diabetes, a simple blood test or pee test will tell if you have it. Go to your doctor to test for the diabetes and your mouth. Don't take aspirin every day for the teeth pain, it thins your blood and can if you accidently cut your self or get injured, then you would stop bleeding and also can tear at your stomach. Just get to a doctor. If you feel woozy or don't feel good, call 911. The blood in the mucus, can be from your nose and is sometimes common, but with the details you have given me, it may be dangerous. So please go to a doctor and get checked out. Stop taking aspirin. Try oragel and any other tooth pain reliver.

im 14/f. i have this friend that is really fun to be with but lately she has been really clingy. she follows me around and goes everywhere i do. i dont want to hurt her feelings because shes a good friend but what can i tell her so that she will stop hanging on me?
::needs advice::
Well, you don't want to be mean, so next time when she is acting clingy, just say, hey i have to go meet someone or an excuse, and if that doesn't work then say, we don't want to get sick of each other! In a nice voice. If she still doesn't get it, say i need some space. But say it in the sincerest, nicest way.
hope i help!

I have these friends that I thought were my really good friends.. we did a lot of stuff together, and then when highschool came we all drifted apart! I tried to keep our friendship together becuz we've been friends since elementary school and then I found out that they were all talking behind my back. I brought this up to them and we got in a huge fight. It's been one year (I'm a sophomore) and I still miss them though.... my friends say i shouldnt! What should I do?? I really like ur advie. I rate!
My friends and I are going through the same thing, one of my friends was feel the same way that you are, even though my situtation started a couple of months ago. What i think works is to think about what they said behind your back and how hurtful it was. But if you really feel that the fight was a big mistake or not really worth it, write them a letter, or an email, saying that you didn't expect the outcome to be this bad from that fight. Ask if maybe you guys can be on speaking terms then move on from there, if they say no, then that better give you reason enough that they are not nice people.
Hope I help!

I've been going out with this boy who's a year younger than me. He's super sweet and we've been going out for almost 3 weeks. I feel bad though because my friends (girls and guys) are making fun of him and being really mean to him. His friends are being mean to me too. I like him but maybe it'd be better if i dumped him. I don't see him very often either. I still like him but i dont know whether or not to dump him. sorry so long!!
signed, troubled
Don't dump someone you enjoy being with just because people are being stupid and mean. As long as you like being with him, that is all that matters. If your friends or his friends keep on bugging you, just say to them, Leave me alone. OR if you want to let them know your serious, say " at least i have a boyfriend" lol. Well hope everything works out!

Okay I asked the question about being 13/f and my breasts hurting size 38c. Well today i was noticing that my right breast kinda feels like it has lumps in it. I think I might have breast cancer. But I am confused. If I do I don't know how to ask my mom to take me to the doctor to find out or even tell her that I think I do.
Well, Make sure your right. Try doing a self-breast exam. Here is how to do one:

If it still comes up positive, talk to your mom about it. Say " i think i need to go to the doctor." Calmly explain that you feel lumps on your breasts and that you did the self test.
I hope everything works out well.
