do you look like your pictures?

Too funny...you know the best way to solve that...I find it works great...if you have a webcam....use it.... it someone will not go on webcam for you, then they are probably not who they say they are and the pics are old..... most people own a webcam and if they want to meet you will go on cam.

Why would 'most people' own a webcam?

I look like mine. I think if my hair is different or something that might make me look a little different but other than yet yeah what you see is what you get with me.

LOL, people look at my pics and assume I either heavily photoshopped em, or that isn't me. But sorry guys..yes that's me.
I had shorter hair in one pic, but the color pic is actually less than a month old, and yes I look that way. Dunno what it is about me...

It would take an artist of the greatest ability to attempt a capture or fair representation of my incredible handsomeness, radiance, attractiveness and stunning features.
A photo could not have that ability.
I would not want others to then use such likeness, of myself, in idol worship.
Hence I will choose to remain as an image to be only kept in the minds of those seeking.
Oh, did I forget to mention the artist would have to find a way to also reflect and express my sincere humble and modest ways?

This has never happened to me.

I have naturally curly hair but I straighten it a lot, and someone may say I look better with it one way more than the other, definitely not different.

I have full shots and face shots, I think everyone should. It makes for less surprises later. I really never understood the whole misleading people with pictures thing. If you intend on meeting someone then its kind of stupid to lie about it. I mean, they're gonna find out once they see you. If I had to guess why someone did it, I'd say they might think the person might overlook it due to personality, but the fact that you lied would be deal breaker enough for me.

Just sayin.

Well, I've learned that you can't really go by the pic in their profile. Most of the men I've been out with look nothing like their pictures. Looks aren't that important to me, so it didn't really matter that much, but it did seem a tad dishonest.

Apparently I have no talent for photography because I thought I had a decent pic up, but apparently I'm only getting rated around 4.5, so beats the hell out me. In person, I usually am very well received, so I guess I look a lot better in person. lol. Any thoughts??

I have been told frequently that I look better in person and that I don't look my age. I take all my pictures myself so I consider it high praise!

Eh, I guess I'm pretty content with mine. Some people get my gender confused though.. all because of a little bit of eyeliner. Grrr...

I went and used the Hasselblad, then the Leica finally found no camera was capable of capturing the true beauty and manliness of my essence.
I am currently awaiting the reincarnation of Leonardo DaVinci as he will have to paint my picture.
Then it will be posted for all to glory in.

I rarely take pictures, and it's RARE for me to smile in them...personally, I don't like my smile, although I have received compliments on it in person. Also, I'm a medium built curvy girl...people have told me I look thinner in person. I've also been told I'm better looking in person.

Haha. I look very much like my pictures. Considering the fact that they're very recent and not at all photoshopped.
In fact... I've been told I look better in person.

I always keep my pics recent..am always told I look just like my pics! why do so many men keep the same pics on and never update them? or better yet ones from many many years ago? when they were very young..don't get it.. I like someone who isn't afraid to show the real person they are..are there any out there???

enjoy....

I would sure hope so seeing one was taken today one yesterday and the rest very recent. If someone says I dont look like my pics they need friggin glasses. But I have met people that dont look like thier pics. Some look way better two in particular and lots dont really look like their pics or they are such old pics they really dont look like that anymore. Ihave a habit of asking how old the pics are. hell I could put up picks of when I was a skinny **** but who am I trying to fool... Honesty is the best... How stupid would you look if you put a pic up and you looked nothing like that. If you are serious in your profile and want to find someone be honest...

I look exactly like it, why put yourself in that situation? maybe thats just me, lots of laptops come with webcams these days as well so you could go that route......thats a chance you take though on this, almost like a blind date a friend sets you up on and their description of the person doesn't come in the same zip code....if that happens I would suggest saying you need to go the bathroom and bail....lies about the way they look I'm sure theres more to follow...................................

Yes. I've made a special effort to keep my photos labeled and current. I also had some friends review my site and give me feedback and suggestions to keep things accurate. They are me, the are recent, they look like me. But I have no control on what you do with your imagination before you meet me.

yes all my pictures are up to date, none more than two months old. One taken in the last two weeks.

I have met with a few men who look nothing like their pictures. It is dissapointing to say the least. They were considerably older, shorter and on one occassion, a guy stated in his profile he had a head full of hair but his toupee turned crooked during our dinner date. Guess he had that head full of hair...bought and paid for.
