Guys, why only one photo? It drives me crazy to look at someone's profile and all they have is one pic. Or a pic from far away where you can't even see the guy's face. Women are visual too, ya know!
Yes, agreed. Additionally, Ladies, if you have ten photos, but they are all extreme closeups of only your face, that is basically just one photo. lol Seriously though, variety is nice.
@JustLynnie Nothing personnel. This post just made me think of it is all.
What matters more than anything when it comes to your online dating profile? One word: Photos. Photos can drastically increase your chances of getting more communication and dates. Or not.
Want to completely kill any chances of success? Then upload blurry, dark or poor quality images. This seems like an obvious statement, but thousands of people upload pics like this.
You have 5 seconds to make a good impression. People will see your main photo as a tiny pic the size of a saltine cracker on their cell phone screens. If your main photo is not clear, bright and attractive, they move on.
A genuine smile is inviting, warm and appealing. People want to see your eyes and smile. If you look happy in your photos, people will see you as a fun person they will enjoy being around.
To make you stand out, the background should contrast with your hair color. For better photos, choose a background that is clean and uncluttered.
Your main photo should be a head-and-shoulder shot, showing you SMILING and looking at the camera. You also need one full body shot, again taken outdoors and smiling.
Other pictures should show you outdoors, doing activities you enjoy. No hats, sunglasses, alcohol or stupid poses. You must be in every picture.
Caption and date your photos, to make them more interesting and clear. Make the captions short, and humorous, if possible.
Show your pearly whites! People think:
A nice smile = healthy mouth = good kisser
Every single man I met with closed-mouth photos had horrid teeth: missing teeth, black stumps, rotten, brown, gray or yellow, nasty tartar, badly crooked and/or breath that stank of rotten meat. UGH. I cannot imagine kissing that.
Well said, I'll get on it.
