Before starting your broadcast, upload at least one photo to your promotional gallery. You can upload multiple photos to this gallery, but only one can be selected as your profile photo. This photo will be displayed as your main profile picture on the models online now page. Please note that the contents of your promotional gallery will not be visible on your bio page for members. Therefore, it’s important to create albums before uploading photos.
Public and Private Photo Albums
There are two types of albums you can create: Public and Private. Create Public albums to share your best work with everyone, and Private albums to offer exclusive content to your most dedicated fans.
Public albums are visible on your profile and available for all members to see. You can choose to make them accessible to everyone, including guests, or limit viewing to members only.
Private albums are listed on your bio page and available for members to purchase. Private albums are only viewable by Premiere members or Fan Club members.
Ensure that any photo you upload adheres to our Terms of Use and meets the following criteria:
General Photo Guidelines:
- Photos must be in .JPG (jpeg), .PNG, .PCX, or .BMP format and have a file size no larger than 20MB.
- Photos cannot be copyrighted.
Promotional Image Guidelines:
- Photo dimensions should be widescreen with an aspect ratio of 4:3 or 16:9, with dimensions between 200 x 150px and 1000 x 562px, with a minimum resolution of 72dpi.
- Your face must be clearly visible and match the primary model of the stream.
- Photos cannot contain:
- Copyright protection
- Poor resolution or pixelation
- Custom frames, text, or graphic overlays
- Unauthorized endorsements or badges
- Your contact information
- Subject matter that violates the Terms of Use
- If your Profile Photo has a PG or PG-13 rating, it will be displayed on the “Who’s Online Now” page to guests and members across all Streamray sites.
- If your Profile Photo has an R or X rating, it will be restricted from the “Who’s Online Now” page on some Streamray sites but will be visible to all logged-in members.
All images undergo review by Streamray staff, and the approval process may take 24-72 hours. Upon approval, a rating is assigned based on the photo composition.

Editing Photo and Photo Album Titles
You can edit the titles on your photos and photo albums by clicking on the edit icon located in the top right corner of the thumbnail. To save your changes click on the “Update” button.
You can rearrange the order of your album photos by dragging and dropping each image to its desired location within the album. To set a specific image as the album cover, simply click on the “Use as Cover” button.
Additionally, you have the flexibility to move an image from one photo album to another using the drag and drop method. Click on the image, hold down the mouse button while dragging it to the desired folder.
Deleting Photos and Photo Albums
Deleting an image from a photo album is a straightforward process. Click on the “trash icon” located in the lower right corner of the image. It’s important to note that images are permanently deleted from the album once this action is taken.
For Public albums, the deletion process involves clicking on the album in the left pane and selecting the “Delete this Album” link.
Private albums, specifically those created for Fan Club members or for purchase, are not eligible for deletion. Adding a photo to an album that is for purchase is PERMANENT. You will not be able to delete any photos within an album that has been purchased by a member. This ensures the integrity and exclusivity of the content within these albums is maintained.
