Account Types: Organisation or Personal
Once you have signed up to mixedin, you will be able to access and edit your MyMix page. Under the "Account" tab of " Edit MyMix " you can select your preferred account type - either Individual or Organisation (the default selection is Individual).
An Organisation account should be selected if you are representing an organisation (e.g. business, bar, club, association, etc) that organises events.
A Individual account should be selected if you are an individual user. Of course a personal account still allows you to add events to mixedin - you can add events as an event spotter or you can add personal events (e.g. a birthday, farewell, wedding, casual sports gatherings etc). Remember that you have the option to restrict access to your events by classifying the event as private or public (see Adding an Event ).
Editing Your Account Information
Under the "Information" page of " Edit MyMix " you can enter details about yourself or your organization. In the "Public Name" field enter your personal name (if a personal account) or organization name (if an organization account), this is the name that will be displayed to other users. You can also enter a description of yourself, an external website address and any tags you wish to be associated with.
You can also upload one photo or image that will be shown on your MyMix avatar. If you are setting up an organization account, you also have the option to upload a logo. Your avatar image or photo should be in the following format:
Format: JPEG, GIF, PNG
Size: 100 x 100 pixels
