Despite the cute dog, I wouldn’t click on your profile to read it because your pic is too dark.

Get a clearer, better main pic wherein you are the focus. Use a program to lighten the dog pic and use it as an extra!

Good luck! waving

Curious, but why are pictures such an important issue on dating websites? Looks are extremely deceiving, especially when it's merely a photograph. For instance, my profile picture is creepy. It's dark, I'm not smiling, nor can you see clearly. Then again it's the only one I have at the moment and if you're really curious as to what I look like you'd contact me for another one. Regardless of what I "look" like on the outside, I am college educated, I have goals and values, mama raised me right, good head on my shoulders, and some would say I'm a comedic genius. I just don't believe a picture would sway me toward whether or not I'll look at someones profile. I usually look at the headlines.

If you ask for help, you should be gracious enough to accept it.
If someone says they would not look at your profile because the
picture is too dark, they probably represent several hundred hits
of the same opinion.

You asked. They told you.

Well said. I don't have many available electronic pics. The ones I posted are the best. Anyway, pics are a representation, not something to be the final word.

Well pics are important because it is a dating site lol Your pic really is your first impression on here. Alot of people don't even go past your pic to read your profile unless something in your pic caught their attention. Maybe a little shallow, but that's just how it is.
You may not be creepy at all, but if you post a creepy a pic ( which I don't think you look creepy ) people will assume you're a creepy guy. Just kinda how that works. lol when I have my Panda pic up people actually ask me if that's my pet or if it's me in a costume laugh laugh I'm like yes, I have a pet panda bear in my backyard. Doesn't everyone?

While I have to be attracted to someone's soul and intellect, I must also be attracted to their appearance! :laughing:

I have many, many guy friends that I love on the inside, and value as people and my friends, but there is no chemistry (for one reason or another) or they aren't my type physically.

This is a dating site! I am looking for someone that appeals to all of my senses. slaphead

You have your preferences and methods; I have mine. winking

I think it's a good profile. I too look at headings and the words more than I do the pics only because it's something the person wrote about themselves and it gives you a glimpse of "who the person is" not their SHELL. But the ladies are right about one thing MANY, MANY women look at a picture to see if the guy creeps them out or if they look friendly. And they do move on immediately (most profiles without a picture don't even get looked at)...The problem with that is that it's the SHELL of the person and not who they are (not that people don't lie; but ya gotta have some trust in people).....How many serial killers & murderers neighbors claimed they seemed so nice, they looked nice......PLEASE! I think your profile is good and I wish you the VERY best of luck in finding that woman of your dreams.
