Customizing Your Mixi Profile
Once inside Mixi, you will want to personalize your profile to show what you are interested in and maybe where you live, favourite movies, etc.
To do this, click on the “profile” profile menu button at the top of the screen. You can find this easily by checking our English version of the Mixi screen here – Mixi screen in English.
The following preview of your profile will be displayed. You must then click on the “Edit profile” button as shown in the next images:
This will take you to a screen with editable text boxes where you can change all the details of your profile for others to see.
Use the following images in both English and Japanese as a guide to what information is located where. You’ll remember from our previous tutorials that the drop down menus on the right of the screen have 3 options (in order):
- display to my friends only
- display to my friends and their friends
- display to everyone in Mixi
Once you have all your details as you like, click on the dark brown-colored “save changes” button at the bottom of the screen.
This will take you to a confirmation screen where you will see your details again and at the bottom, 2 more brown buttons, the one on the left is “Yes” and the one on the right is “No”. Click on the left of the 2 buttons to save your profile’s changes. See the confirmation screen here:
This will return you to your profile screen in Mixi.
To get back to your home or “top” page, you can click on the “home” button, or on the big Mixi logo at the top-left of your screen. This is a shortcut to always take you back to your home page. The area to click is highlighted below:
