GridView/FAQ

Friends without Profile Pics

Q: Why do my friends who actually have profile pics show up as not having a profile picture (depending on your settings: as a number, in the list, or as a "?" mark)???

A: Sorry about that. Your friends have their privacy settings turned up, so we only get partial (or no) info about your friends. We can only display the information returned to us by Facebook. (which privacy setting?)

Friends not listed at all

Q: Why are some my friends not listed on GridView at all (as a picture or even in the list of friends without pictures)?

A: They have their privacy settings turned up so that Facebook does not tell us that they even exist. They could have also blocked GridView. There is nothing we can do, sorry.

Not all of my friends are on my Mosaic

A: We pick your friends which best match the color. This may mean that some friends are not on the mosaic or that some are on their more than once.

I don't like the Mosaic

Q: I don't like the Mosaic! A: Sorry to hear you don't like the Mosaics. Go to http://apps.facebook.com/gridview and scroll down to the bottom of the page. Adjust your settings in the purple box.

Sorry to hear you don't like listing the names. I've gotten responses from people who really like it, so that is why this feature is an option. You can go to http://apps.facebook.com/gridview and scroll down to the bottom of the page. Adjust your settings in the purple box.

Thanks for writing in to report the problem with making Mosaics. I have investigating this problem for the last week and found that do to redirection problems in certain browsers, chiefly Internet Explorer, making Mosaics was not working properly for most people. I have instituted a fix which appear to work on IE, Firefox, Safari, and Opera. You may make a Mosaic by going to http://apps.facebook.com/gridview/mosaic.php If you have any further issues with Mosaics, do not hesitate to contact me. I am sorry for the delay in my response as I was waiting to contact you after this issue was resolved. -Michael

PS: Get your GridView Mosaic mugs, mousepads, and more! Look for the link inside GridView!
