A wonderful way to attract attention to your profile on myspace, friendster, perfspot or any such social networking site is to put games on your profile. Surely, everybody loves games. And it is very easy to find a variety of free flash games. Many websites provide codes for games in textboxes on all the game pages for you to easily add to your profile. To add a game to your profile, simply copy the myspace games code in the textbox and paste it on your profile. The best location to place the games in your profile is the About Me section of your page.
The trick is in selecting the right games. All of us have our own favorites. In a way, the games people play reflect their personality. Say you have one friend whose favorite game is Formula Fog. And another, whose favorite is Word Search. Who is more likely to buy a fast car? And who is more likely to be introverted? So select a game that reflects your personality and will also be enjoyable to your friends. Classic games like pacman, tetris and collapse are all time favorites.
There are, however, a few other points to consider while selecting games for profiles.
-First is the file size. More the file size, more the loading time and greater the chances of your friends turning impatient.
-Second is the width of the game file. Height is usually not an issue, but if the game file is more than 500 pixels wide, it may not fit into your layout. About 400 pixels should be optimum width.
-Third factor is the background music. If your game has a background score that keeps playing while the game is loaded, it could sound irritating to your friends. So games with some default music setting are best avoided.
-Finally,consider the difficulty factor. Games which are too easy do not offer any challenges and are considered boring. Games which are too difficult do not give a chance to win and are discouraging.
