Your profile
Your profile is your home on Glass. It introduces you, gathers your photography in one place, and gives you control over how much of your work can be seen beyond the community.
If you are new to Glass, Getting started covers account setup and your first post.
Set up your profile
Open your profile, go to Settings, and choose Edit Profile. You can change your display name, username, pronouns, profile picture, bio, and one website or social link.
Choose a username with care. It becomes part of your profile address at glass.photo/username. If you change it later, links using the old username stop working. If you want to share several destinations, use the URL field for your main site and mention the others in your bio.
Choose who can see your work
A public profile can be visited and shared by anyone on the web, and its photos may appear in search engines. A members-only profile keeps the profile and its photos visible only to people with an active paid membership. Free Viewer accounts cannot see members-only profiles.
Open your profile and go to Settings.
Choose Privacy.
Under Your Photos, turn Members only on or off.
Public profiles are included with paid membership. If your account moves to Viewer, existing work stays on Glass but the profile becomes members-only. See Membership and billing and Privacy, safety, and your data for details.
Control comment visibility
Photo and comment visibility are separate under Settings > Privacy. Your Comments controls whether people outside Glass can read comments and replies you leave. Member Comments controls whether they can read discussion on your own photos. Comments are already members-only when your photos are members-only.
Find your profile tabs
Your profile separates your work and connections into five tabs:
Photos contains single-photo posts, with pinned work first and the rest in chronological order.
Series contains projects and collections.
Following and Followers show your community connections.
Bookmarks contains photos you saved. It is private and visible only to you.
Pin photos to the top
Open one of your photos, choose Edit Photo, and turn on Pin to your profile under Visibility. Save the post. The most recently pinned photograph appears first. To change the order, unpin and save, then pin the photos again in the order you want.
Turning Pin to your profile off removes the photograph from the pinned area but leaves it in its chronological place.
Hide a photo from your profile
Open the photo, choose Edit Photo, and turn on Hide from profile under Visibility. The photograph leaves your profile grid but stays on Glass and keeps its place in relevant feeds. Its URL, comments, and appreciations remain.
A hidden photo cannot also be pinned. Turn the setting off to return it to your profile. Delete the post instead if you want to remove the photograph from Glass entirely.
Use your profile on every platform
Profile fields and privacy choices follow your account across iPhone, iPad, Android, the web, and Windows. Button locations can vary. See Platform guides for controls unique to each app.
