With the redesign of Trendiki, we had to limit the customizations to the appearance
of Profiles compared to our original site.
This was done to make sure that the text on the pages was still readable and
people could browse the site.
We are working on adding new customizations, so come back frequently to check
if the Trendi Girls have added something new!

Definition: 'Tagging' is the Internet's universal term for categorizing an item. Tags are like keywords or labels that you add to anything to make it easier to find.
You can click on a tag and it will take you to a gallery page with more items that are tagged with the same keyword.
When tagging is done accurately, it creates a great ease for you and other users when you want to search items or contents on Trendiki.
You can be creative in tagging; for example, you can tag an item with keywords like "flat ballet shoes white patent Bebe" Later, when you look at that item, you can just click one of the tags and view all other items that have been tagged that way.
When you have a description with more than one word (example: shirt dress), be sure to use an UNDERSCORE to link the words together (example: shirt_dress). You do not need to place commas in between each tagged word, you only need to have a space in between (example: dress black twilight).
What kind of keywords should you add? Here are some simple guides to help you with tagging your fashions:
Who wears it: celebrity, men, women, junior, pet, etc.
What's the brand or who's the designer: Guess, Bebe, Bitten, Valentino, Oscar_de_La_Renta, Vera_Wang, Chloe, etc.
Where can I wear it: runway, wedding, cocktail party, sports, work, clubbing
What season and time is it for: fall, winter, spring, summer, night, and day
Color: pink, pink, and pink (hehe...we don't think you need that much of an explanation for this, right?)
Tags are descriptive words you can add to help other fashionistas find and rate your item. Examples of tags are color of the item, season, style, and material. see more
Spot-It Media is a community media platform dedicated to fashion.
You can spot news, gossip, events, fashion humor, etc, from anywhere on the
web to keep a list of your favorite fashion places on the web, and tell the rest
of the Trendiki community about it. Using the same
Spot-It Button you use to spot your fashion finds, you can spot your favorite fashion blog or
website and create Trendi folders to hold all your content.
The Love-It Button is similar to the rating system in the Window Shopping section.
If you find something you like, just hit the Love-It button. The more people love
the media, the more likely that content will show up on the front page of the
Spot-It Media section.
This makes it easy to find the best, most popular content on Trendiki.
Trendiki editors don't pick their favorite content; it is based on what YOU like!
So, if you really liked that blog on this season's hot new handbag, make sure
you hit the Love-It Button.
Easy, just get the Spot-It Button installer.
Download the installer and run the program.
It will install a button on your web browser that will allow you to spot
your favorite web pages and fashions
