I dont know about you guys/girls, but my whole online dating life, if they only have face pictures, there is a 95% chance of the rest of them resembles some sort of dinosaur i can't spell. What about you guys?

Ummm...you only have face pictures...okay a few show shoulders. You have no full length pictures so you could very well be a dinosaur yourself!!

That is too funny. Actually, i have only been dissappointed twice by the difference between the face shot and the body type. But you do have a point there. Only showing the face to hide the body ? That only works up untill the first date, if there even is one.

I don't have a full body shot, but I do have my huge thunder thighs showing while sitting on a porch - does that count?

People read too much into things sometimes. If you ask for one, and don't receive...be weary. However if you're just going by what's on the profile, it's your problem if you think they're a dinosaur...because there have been threads that complain about not having close enough head shots.

LOL How much research have you done via online dating to come up with the 95% figure? You figure may be skewed due to the number of people you dated.


pssssst you were online when you posted this, you could have looked up the spelling of the dinosaur you're trying to make reference to !!!!!!!!

Yea I pulled that outta nowhere... I'm sure I could get an accurate discription and name by estimating the bone structure of atleast one dinosaurish looking person on my nearest search engine...

You show them a close up of your face they say you are hiding your butt. You show your whole body and you get complaints about not being able to see a person's face clearly. Too much on and you are hiding something. Not enough and you are vain or looking for sex.

What a funny place.

^^^ You read my mind, brother.

I don't have a full body pic for the same reason others posted, just haven't been out anywhere recently where someone has taken a picture of me and sent it to me... and oh yeah, you can get skewered if they aren't recent too, so I don't wanna go there.

I suppose I could have someone take one if I gave it that much thought, but I would prolly feel a little silly if I had to tell them why.

Anyway, you're point is no lost on me. But it doesn't matter in the end, because no matter what the pictures look like, you're gonna officially make up your mind when you meet them.

You got that right! The funniest fecking place on earth!

I met a woman that had full body pic's. As well as close ups.. The pictures were awesome! Let me say that again for the people in the back of the room...The "pictures" were awesome..

In person, she looked like a crack head! Skin and bones.. Cloths could barely hang on her frame....

I tried to feed her, but I'm thinking she thought I would go to the bathroom and leave her with the check...

Face pictures, too far, too close, with children, with pets, backgrounds, too old, none at all...someone is always complaining about pictures or lack of in the forums.

I had body pics before and was getting way too many "Yer Hawt" comments from wierdos ...it got very irritating after a while & it was like pulling teeth to get a decent conversation out of people. I already know i look good so i don't feel the need to post body pics on POF to prove myself. It would also be misleading as my profile title says "Not for sale"... After i narrowed down my presentation to my face pic and what I type, the weeding out process happened by itself & i'm happier.

Plus, most importantly... after my computer turns off, i don't want to be recognised in the street by other POF'ers as "Hey i seen u on POF"

This place is really wierd sometimes. God forbid i actually MEET some of the wierdo's on here in real life by coincidence based on recognising a pic. No thanks.

^^ I probably would given someone crap about that comment a week about-being recognized in public-as being needle in the haystack and too cautious. After 8 months on the site, this just happened to me. I had very little contact with a girl (sent some emails back and forth, then it died) and thought I saw her at a bar on a date recently. Thought to myself, Nahhhhh... I saw her online a few days later and asked her.. she confirmed it, sure enough, it was her.
