So I return and find a buttload of reviews requested. Being that a great many of 'em are dated by weeks and months, I am not sure if those folks still want their profiles reviewed.
So I'll just start from those who requested in recent days.

IrishBeauty22
You seemed to have requested more than once, so I shall get you first.
Step up, dont be shy.

Your headline, "There she was like discosuperfly"
Too klunky. Try "There I am like a disco superfly"
Granted I dont have a friggin clue what that means, nor will most other guys, but I'll give you an "A" on originality!

So about your pictures.
Well, they suck. Now now, not horribly so as if mangled in a car wreck. More of a side swipe, or perhaps the clipping of a pedistrian.
I like the first pic and next to last pic. Lose the rest.

You have three things listed as dating interests. You must be incredibly boring.... or you just haven't applied your noodle and come up with more things you like.
What kind of poetry? Do you read or do you write also?
Dancing? What kind and why?
"Arts"??? What about 'em? Too vague. Be more specific. Add about 8 more interests to your list. The more you list the more likely you'll find a match!

"About me",
"I'm told I'm a cute girl"??
This yells LOW SELF ESTEEM.
Lose it and do so quickly. Either you believe you are cute or you don't.

The poem in this section was nice, sure. But what from it can we gather more info about you?
We want more details about you, what you're like. Your attitude and so forth.

"First Date"
"Basically I expect to be treated like the lady I am,ie opening my car door picking me up at my door pulling out my chair ect I don't expect anything less"
Good luck with all that!
"I'm pretty flexiable when it comes to trying things so I'm always up for new things"
Lose lose lose.

Have you bothered to read up this thread one or two pages? In it, you will find some great tips and hints I have offered folks. In this part, I have suggested that women be more specific. Unless you want us guys to guess what you'd like and before ya know it, you are jumping out of a perfectly good airplane. Specifics, thats the key!

RJ8220: K bug guy, your turn!
Posted: 8/12/2005 1:43:57 PM
RJ8220:

"Have Love Will Travel"
Your headline is a bit heavy, can ya think of something more fitting your attitude? Come on, have more fun with this. You wanna catch folks eyes, it will not happen with this "Have Love Will Travel" stuff. Pee Yewww

Ok, about your pics.
Lose all but one due to them being too dark. Well ok, two pics are keepers. The one with you and a smile, thats decent. And one with you and your daughter (I assume). However I do not really advise folks to put pictures of their kids online in any forum anywhere nowadays. Its too creepy as you never know who is looking at those pictures.

Dating Interests, they are ok, but you need more specifics.
Read up this thread a page or three. You'll get some great hints and tips I have offered others.
One big one is to have a wider variety.
And be specific.

"About me"... eh, it's ok. A little rushed in my mind, crowding a buttload of stuff about yourself in 3 sentences. Take a breath, spread it out some!!
And please lose that "Believe I got things well at hand - just need that special woman". Hurl alert!! lol

"First Date"< G-R-E-A-T, except lose "the usual. What matters to me is meeting YOU !"

hhmmm, jaymtheliberal
"A one of a kind guy right here for ya! "
Lose this, as it is not as original as you may believe. Come on guy, use some of that gray matter, and mix in some sense of humor I am sure you have. You wanna catch someones attention here, to pique their interest to read your profile. What would grab your attention?

About your pics, I like the 2nd and 4th. They convey a relaxed and easy going you, and a competitive and perhaps smart you. Lose the rest. The first "Primary" pic makes you look like some hood. The third is too distant, the fifth... well just weird (WTF is with your expression there? lol) and the last just not in the best light.

Sidebar: Your profession is a chess player??? For real??

Your dating interests, not bad at all. Good variety although the "reading: and a few others are a bit vague. Can you specify a little more about those particulars?

"About me"
Well now, a practicing Pagan eh?
If you care to keep that in there (I'll give you an "A" for that originality.... you will not find many Pagans on POF), perhaps you could also explain briefly what a Pagan is, as many will not know what that is or will otherwise have their own ill-informed definitions.
For those who have no clue and are reading this, "Pagan" has a few different meanings but for the most part it is someone without a religion, kinda like someone without a country.
Some definitions state it is a practice of an Earth Religion or nature-based religion, a religion worshiping earth or nature or parts thereof. But I digress.

Overall this section is alright. Good first date too.

Hey, cool Sn, "Canadian Steel"!
Also good pics of ya with the pooches, but the sun glasses may work against ya but only slightly.

About your headline, "Good food, good wine, good company!"
Boring dude!! Come on guy, you can do better than that. You want to stand out, be original and catch someones eye. Would A headline like yours catch your attention if a lady posted it? I am betting not.

Please read up a few pages on this thread. YOu will get some great ideas and tips that I have shared with others. Use it wisely.

Dating Interests....
Ok variety, but kinda vague.
"Dining"? "Movies"? What about 'em? specifics!!
"About me"
"My situation has changed recently and therefore will no longer travel to Asia as often as I have in the past."
Whats this got to do with eggs in China. Lose this part, sticks out like a sore thumb.

The rest of this section is ok, but it seems like you are cramming a lot of stuff in such a short area. Loosen up, spread it out some and tell more about yourself. Who you are and your attitude.

Lose the "first date" entirely. Why fill it out if all you seek is "friends".

Hi again Tigerlily,

Ok, so I took a quick looksie. Your pictures, ssssoooooooooo much better! Good job!
Your Interests, also ssssssooooooooo much better! Great work!
"About me", watch the punctuation as some of your sentences seem to run together and makes for a little bit of a laugh where one is not meant. But otherwise, much better!
Good work!!

Hmmm, about your profile.
I gotta first start with your pics.
Dude, WTF are you thinking?? You have pictures of Quilts!
Quilts, cabinet, dog and a bike. You looking to find friends for those? Or for yourself? Why even bother with pics??
Lose those pics, find one of you and put on up there.

I like your dating Interests, maybe add a few more varieties in there. Define "Anything outdoors" better. Specifics, thats what it's all about.

"About me" section was a hoot. Great demonstration of your easy going attitude, "seasoning" and sense of humor! Damn fine job!
I would lose only a couple of things, or perhaps re-write.
"...there's a very good reason why I don't carry a gun when I drive, grrrrrrrrrr "
Lose any references to guns or weapons.

Otherwise, your profile is a keeper in my "original and best" files.
