Allison, If you go to Dashboard>>Edit Profile you will see a checkbox you can click to enable other people to see your profile. This turns on links to your profile on the content you have added to the site. For example, if I view an image you have uploaded then either your name will be a link to your profile or not. Thanks!

I can't seem to get the map to update. I've put in the new address, city, zip code and shows the right spot on the map, and when I click save it still goes to my old address?
