| Re: Whats in a picture? Posted: 4/6/2004 12:53:18 PM | | I think pics are VERY important. WHen you look at profiles, they all sound exactly the same, so you never really know exactly what you're going to REALLY get. The only thing that remains is what the person looks like. And in the long run, isn't personal appearance the first thing that brings 2 people together in real life? A guy sees a hot chick walking down the street and he says to himself "Hey, she's cute. I might want to get to know her." He says hi and they start talking, and only after the initial meeting does he decide if he wants to continue what little of a relationship they have together. So in the long run (and I know how awful this sounds), appearance is always more important that personality. And now I'm going to cringe in a corner, since no one will be writing me after hearing my words of wisdom... <:( | |

| Re: Whats in a picture? Posted: 4/6/2004 6:10:05 PM | I don't know about VERY important, but probably as important as all the other information that is in the profile.
Most of us (or maybe that's just most of us "dinosaurs" :-) want to look our best to meet someone for the first time. So, why then do so many people put up such crappy pictures? You don't get a second chance to make a first impression. And lose the sunglasses people, we want to see your eyes!

| Re: Whats in a picture? Posted: 4/7/2004 2:03:48 PM | | Exactly my philosophy behind my pic. I just scanned in my senior picture from high school to at least give the appearance that I have some class. Also I don't want merely a sex-based relationship, so I wouldn't try to pose on a webcam strutting my stuff or anything. *l* | |

| Re: Whats in a picture? Posted: 4/7/2004 2:16:24 PM | | post a nice pix... look nice.. smile.. the response will be gloriuos!~ | |

| Re: Whats in a picture? Posted: 4/7/2004 4:03:59 PM | | Apparently a smile and looking nice is all relative. *lol* I haven't gotten a hit yet. | |

| Re: Whats in a picture? Posted: 4/7/2004 4:53:57 PM | | Hm... I'm getting the impression most people don't even read the profile! Just look at the pictures and send silly messages! That's why I have nothing in mine...No one really pays attention anyway! :( | |

| Re: Whats in a picture? Posted: 4/8/2004 7:03:32 PM | Bobman - I gotta disagree. Looks dont matter more in the long run, personality does. Looks may drive my initial desire to talk to a lady, but her personality is what will keep me sticking around. If shes rude, selfish, superficial, close minded or stupid, I want nothing to do with her.
Personality counts so much more than looks, especially in the long run. | |

| Re: Whats in a picture? Posted: 4/8/2004 10:50:26 PM | | im not gonna sit here and lie and say looks dont mean that much because they do, especially on an online date site because there more u can know about the person, the more real it becomes. but there is noon i would ever respnd to just because theyre hot, to me, personality means a lot. so i deffnatly go through and take the time to read what each person has to say. | |
