Hey Charles, a few days ago we implemented a new privacy setting to give you the option of accepting private messages only from users within your network. Today, I discovered a bug with the way this option is set for new users.

I just wanted to let you know that the bug is now fixed, so all members are now able to receive private messages from any other member (the default setting). If you'd like to receive private messages only from users within your network, you can change this setting here.

Also, you can access your privacy settings at any time from the drop-down menu that appears when you hover over your profile photo in the upper right-hand corner of the page.

Hey Charles, I just wanted to give you an update on a couple of recent additions/refinements to the site.

First, we've added the ability for you to upload a resume to your profile. Just click on the "Resume" link in your profile menu to get started.

We've also refined the Screenplay section. For starters, we've added the option to add a screenplay synopsis. We've also streamlined the layout making it easier for others to review your screenplay's title, genre, and logline.

Thanks. --RB

Hi Charles. I'm RB, one of the co-founders of the site. I'm also a screenwriter, actor, and producer. I know first-hand the difficulties all creatives face when trying to find work or attracting attention to their projects. That's why we created Stage 32. This is a network for you, built by you. The more you participate, the greater the rewards. The Stage 32 community runs the gamut, from film students to award winners. Feel free to post head shots, screenplays, acting clips, projects – anything you feel showcases your unique talents.

PS - We ask all new members to help build the community by inviting at least 5 fellow creatives. Check out Invite friends to Stage 32 on the upper right side of your profile. Thanks!
