Verified Member Photos
This is a brand new feature and the only one of it's kind on the internet dating circuit. We have created this program so our members can take a verified picture of themselves. The idea behind this feature is to allow you to browse verified member pictures besides looking at uploaded photos. Simply put, there is no way to take a picture without actually sitting in front of your computer, which adds an additional layer of security to our dating web site and added safety for our members. You will find this new premium member feature in your Account Manager section of your account under "My Pictures".

Looking For Chat Room Hosts!
Since we have been getting numerous inquiries as to why there is never anyone in the chat room, we have decided to try and add a new twist to encourage premium members to join and chat. We are asking that any premium member who wishes to be a Chat Host for the night contact Admin by using our "Contact Us" form and entering Chat Host in the subject and volunteer to be the host for the chat session. We also ask that this special volunteer have a topic they wish to discuss for that session and we will post it on the Chat Events and on the Message Boards to get the word out. We will set up the chat event every Wednesday Evening from 6pm est to 9pm est to give everyone a chance to participate. Any responses we get for volunteers will be notified by email what date their topic and chat session will be. We hope we get some fresh ideas and lots of members to join in to make this an ongoing feature. NOTE: If you volunteer to be a Chat Host and are given a specific date to host the event, PLEASE commit and make sure you can be there the whole 3 hours or give us ample time to either reschedule or assign your time slot to someone else.

Site Maintenance - Intermittent Down Time
Between now and December 8, 2006 we will be doing some maintenance and upgrading some hardware so there will be short periods of website down time to accomplish this. If you go to any of our websites and cannot get in or are unable to log into your account, it will most likely be due to our maintenance. Please don't be alarmed and simply try to access the website again after a short period. We are making these necessary enhancements to better service our valued members.

With just a few days left before Valentines Day, LargeandLovely.com today announced a milestone on its five-millionth visitor to its website. LargeandLovely.com established in 1997 is the internet's very first website to cater exclusively to overweight singles and for those who embrace size acceptance. LargeandLovely.com offers a complete interactive adult personals community which connects large single men and women globally. The website uses innovative technology to offer compelling dating personals, fat friendly forums, tasteful picture galleries, online dating articles, live instant messenger and a lively chat room. LargeandLovely.com is the only big and beautiful online dating site offering this magnitude of compelling content for only $29.95 for a premium 10 year membership subscription. New sign-ups automatically receive a free basic membership after their profile registration has been thoroughly verified.
This nine year company's success originates from the first-rate combination of a traditional dating personals site with old fashioned moral values. The hundreds of profiles submitted by plus size singles that arrive daily are manually screened for content. If objectionable content is found in a personal ad, that profile is deleted and never makes it onto the LargeandLovely.com website. Couple this painstaking attention to detail with personalized customer service that is available sixteen hours a day everyday of the year makes this dating personals website vastly unique. “The integrity of our wholesome personals date-a-base, superior content, and second to none personal service to members allows LargeandLovely.com to stay ahead of the competition. Yes, there are other personals sites out there that say they embrace the bbw (big beautiful woman) or bhm (big husky man) and countless more dating sites but we genuinely care and hope that a long term relationship will blossom. The countless testimonials shown on the website affirm the service works. Being the first in our niche allowed us the experience to do it for less then our competitors that offer only certain features. We want every visitor to the feel that they belong to a cozy, safe haven without prejudice based on a larger body size” said John Jablonski, President of Large and Lovely Connections. “We truly put "personal service" in our personals service. Surpassing our expectations for large growth (no pun intended) has been astonishing.”

We hope you enjoy the newest layout. We now have a better log-in system, better photo enhancements, more content and features but the biggest News is...
When you join as a member of this website, you can choose what interests pertain to your liking allowing
you to be included in up to 8 other dating websites with your one profile. We believe this will allow you
more visible exposure and less typing of numerous profiles. We have created diverse communities with real
singles just like you. The reason we have created the two cute chubby cars for our logo is when you create
your free profile you will be able to choose what other fun communities you want to "drive" to and be part of.
Each website will have features created just for that particular website.
More "community websites" will be added in the future and please let us know if you have an idea
for a new (drive-up) community you would like to see us add to the nine websites already in existence.
Join Now and stop "driving" yourself crazy typing endless profiles and start meeting singles who share
your individual interests.
