How to Block Your Pictures On Facebook

Facebook makes it simple to upload pictures of family and friends. You can mark individual faces in a photo with the names of anyone with whom you are Facebook close friends. But suppose you hate it when others post pictures of you without asking?

Facebook can not stop people from publishing your photo. Yet there's a Facebook setup that prevents other users from locating photos labelled with your name. Choose that setup, and also various other users will not be able to look for photos of you.

Similar to lots of Facebook functions, the no-tag setting is easy to use, yet hard to locate.

If among your pals on Facebook has currently labelled you in a picture, look underneath it for the label "In this picture." Your very own name will certainly have an additional link alongside it, "eliminate tag." Click it. The tag with your name goes away. Even much better, no person else will have the ability to identify you in that shot once again.

How to disable every person on Facebook from locating various other customers' photos of you? I needed to e-mail Facebook to tell me where the switch is. Right here's the detailed:

Computer mouse over words Setups in the top right corner of your Facebook page. A menu turns up.

Click Personal Privacy Settings. When the Privacy web page lots, click Profile near the top.

In the page that tons, titled Personal privacy > Account, seek Photos Tagged of You midway down the web page. Click the funny-looking widget that claims My Networks and Friends. Up pops a little food selection that looks like this:

You're virtually home! Click "Customize ..." A huge dialog box appears that asks, Who Can See This? Pick the choice Only Me. Then punch Okay, as well as click Conserve Adjustments at the end of the page.

You're done. Various other individuals still can tag you in their very own pictures. Your name will certainly show up below the image, but the tag won't consist of a click-through link to see other identified photos of you.

Commenter Skies mentioned a valuable device on the Personal privacy > Account page on top: "See just how a pal sees your profile." Type in another customer's name. Facebook presents your profile as it would appear to that user.

You can locate it on the Personal privacy > Account page on top.
