What is the purpose of this site? RateMyWheels.com is designed for the car, truck, motorcycle, ATV etc. enthusiasts to share their "wheels" with other people who share a common passion. Each car submitted to the site is rated on a scale of 1-10 (1 being junk and 10 being the best). This community seeks to be a fun place to discuss common interests in cars/trucks and all things that ride on wheels. How come my wheels are rated a 10, yet not on the "Top Wheels" list? In order to be listed on the "Top Wheels" lists, you have to be voted on 10 times. This keeps the list from being dominated by new profiles with one or two really high votes. How come my wheels is rated differently on the "Top Wheels" page than on the profile page? In an effort to increase the speed of the RateMyWheels.com network the Top pages are generated on a regular basis, rather than dynamically every time someone clicks on the pages. Therefore if your vote has changed since the last time the "Top Wheels" pages have been generated, your rating will be different. My 'wheels' is rated a 1. Is that good or bad? Very bad. Well, unless everyone on the site misunderstood. Our voting scheme is 1 is the worst, 10 is the best. But remember don't take any of the rating too seriously. There are people out there voting to pull everyone down no matter who you are. We encourage our users to be fair when considering a vote. If I edit my account will my rating be reset as well? No, your account will be hidden from users until our administrators re-approve it. When your account reappears, your rating will remain the same. How often can I vote? You may vote once every 24-hour period. If it comes to our attention that a member is setting up additional accounts and voting more than once a day by using numerous accounts, their account will be deleted and their contestant removed without notice. Can I change my online name? No. All your information (profile, rating, messaging) are linked via your online name. Therefore, the only way to change your name would be to delete your unwanted account, and then recreate a new one under the desired online name. How do I remove my profile/picture from the site? Why you would want to do this, we have no idea. But, if you must, log into your account and there will be a "Delete Your Account" option. I spotted what I believe to be a fake or duplicate account. What do I do? Please send us e-mail notifying us of the suspicious account. What is your "last updated" time based on? The server resides in California in the United States of America. Therefore, the time is based on Pacific time (PST). What is your privacy policy? You can view our Privacy Policy here. How do I get my picture on my computer, not to mention your site? There are many ways to get a picture on your computer. Often, photo developers can e-mail your roll of film, processed digitally, for a small fee. You can use scanners at retailers like Kinkos and Ritz Camera for a reasonable price. Also, you can try making friends with someone who has a scanner and just use theirs. Or go ahead and buy a scanner yourself. Some are as low as $50. I have a picture but my picture is a bitmap (BMP) file. What do I do? We don't accept bitmaps files because Internet browsers don't support them. However, if your file is a BMP file there is hope! Open Windows Paint (assuming you are running Windows - if not, why aren't you supporting Bill Gates?) which is located at START MENU > PROGRAMS > ACCESSORIES > PAINT. Then open your picture file, and select "Save As" from the FILE menu and save your picture as a JPG. At this point you can try to re-upload the picture. I have a fabulous business and I would like to promote it on your site. Is this possible? Sure, we will take your money. Contact us and we will discuss our rate card for banner ads and sponsorship opportunities. I love this site. How can I help you guys out?
