I was browsing google tonight 'cuz I was bored(10-18-06) and I saw a link to my profile for this site... I never put it there, nor do I want it there... I am concerned, because I don't want random people going around looking at this(Even if they don't know who I am...) and such... I don't know what to do... Is it okay there? Is there a person I can contact on Google?? HELP!!!!! Crying or Very sad

Here is the link... It should be the 7th one down(Without the 2 extra links to 2 specific sites!!)

Whether you put it there or not doesn't matter. Nobody 'puts' their stuff on google.

You can remove your site from google's listings. [url=http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=35301&topic=8459]Click here.[/url]

If you don't want random people looking at it.. just take the information down. Rolling Eyes

..........You [i]do[/i] know that you can do that [url=http://forums.fanart-central.net/search.php?search_author=Kuudee]here, too[/url].

Of course it's not only you. Anything you put on the internet can potentially be read by anyone who wants to spend the time to locate it. Password protecting your site can give you some measure of privacy... so will setting it as 'friends only' if its a blog or some sort.

Mm. Eh. I don't understand why you'd put it up if you didn't want people to see it in the first place.

Everything on FAC can be found on google. No, you can not remove it.

Why would you want to prevent people from seeing your art?

you'd be suprised

if i type my nickname in google, i get all sorts of site where i have a personal profile, or where i'm a registered user...

if you don't want this, i'm sorry but then you don't want a profile either, you know that when you put something on the internet people can acces it from anywhere

Once you put something out on the 'net, its there for ever.

Even if you delete your FAC profile, its still going to be in the google cache and the internet archive wayback machine.
