How do I find people near me?

Can I post for paid work even if I have only a free account?

Yes you can.

Can I put links to other web sites on my portfolio?

I got added to a list. What does that mean?

It means that someone likes you. If it was a "want to work with" list then you should message them and arrange a shoot!

One of my images was collected. What does that mean?

It means someone likes your image. Now it could be anything from lighting and composition to how you look (if you are a model) or it could be because it was an awesome image! Why not message them and say thanks!
