What it means is that that particular user has chosen to make the pictures in their photo page only available to friends, or sometimes nobody at all.

These people may have a myriad of reasons to justify hiding their photos, which include:
Shyness (rather stupid, since you put yourself on the web in the first place - why not show all?)
To repel pervs - understandable, since there are certainly a lot out there. Not all hot 19 year-old chicks on myspace want some icky 40-year old fat guy masturbating to their photos.
To prevent "fakes" - for some strange reason, certain losers love to steal people's pictures, and make a fake profile using those pictures. The motives for this are lost on me. Maybe these losers get off on how many views their fake profile gets??
To prevent picture theft and editing - again, people sometimes steal the pictures, and then photoshop them in various ways. I don't understand why.
And the final reason - just to be annoying.

Teenage boy 1: "Hey, I just found some really cute girl on myspace"
Teengage boy 2: "Let's look at her pics!"

Get the The user you're trying to view has set all their photos to private mug.A ring check is quickly glancing at the fingers of potential girls (or guys, I suppose) to see if they're already spoken for.
You should be looking for a wedding ring or an engagement ring. Though lack of a ring doesn't mean they're single, at least there might be some hope for you.

Guy: "Damn, she's hot. I'm gonna ask her out."
Friend: "Don't bother, I just did a ring check - she's married."
Guy: "Oh well..."

Get the ring check mug.This term, commonly used by college-age students, is someone you share a house with (or, less commonly, an apartment).
These people were, to my knowledge, formerly known as "roommates," in virtually all contexts.
Housemate seems to be merely one of the many trendy terms being tossed around these days.
Here are possible reasons for this word's existence:
A) Perhaps it's supposed to have less of the negative stigma that the word "roommate" seems to carry with it.
B) Also possible is that roommate implies a closer relationship/friendship than simply housemate.

John, Dave, and Bill were looking for another housemate to share in the rent.

Get the housemate mug.In addition to the other definitions, a tranny chaser refers to the multitudes of creepy guys who stalk and/or lust over the Myspace profiles of transgendered individuals - including crossdressers.
Tranny Chasers often seem to:
"Straight" or "bisexual" as their status.
Married, or have children and a family, yet list themselves as "single".
In their 30s and 40s, or older.
Have nothing but transgendered people, crossdressers, or fetish clothing people, in their friends list.
Fat, or rather unattractive.
Claim that they are "accepting of other gender types" or that they seek a "relationship" with a t-girl. (in reality, they probably are just longing for sex with one)
Never talk to you, just add you, probably for the reason of seeing the other t-girls on the friends list, AND, most importantly, so he can have access to your pictures and jack off to them.
OR, on the rare occasions that they try to initiate conversation, they come off as nice guys, but its soon clear that they are just wanting to cyber.
Speaking as a t-girl in her 20s, it's rather disconcerting to know that such perverts lusting after me.
F*ck tranny chasers. Seriously.
