I’ll admit (a little secret of mine) that I initially befriended a few folks I admired on TV (specifically, 2006-2007′s Beauty and the Geek) but since I have no personal connection to the guys, I deleted the non-genuine contacts. And if it’s not worth it to you, there’s always that opportunity to disable that account.)

Finally, you can preview your image (or select the desired image if multiple images are on the page), add a title, description, and tags, choose a category, and submit the story to private groups (if you’re a member of any).
