Are you sure that your dating site profile photo corresponds to your image? If you (for example) looking for a work - choose the photo carefully! Employers often looking for information about potential workers in Social Networks. Let's analyze of mistakes that people makes in Social Networks when they place profile photo.

Profile-photo: photo of another people (for example,How to attract attention to yourself on a dating site by profile photo? Articles some famous people photo or photo of any man in girl's profile); some picture instead of photo; your photo modified beyond recognition by graphics editor; your face closed by your hands.
You think: I very enigmatic and creative people!
But people think about you: can I trust this people? It is secretive people! And he/she don't want play the game.

Better. If you will place picture or other people photo instead of yours, then site moderators will delete such picture. Try to place your photo. You can modify it but not hard. You can (for example) correct color of the clothes or remove shadow. Closed face (by hands, tissue or sunglasses) subconsciously shows that you hide something. Therefore, try not to close your face and look into the lens.

Profile-photo: low quality photo. Unsuccessful pose or camera angle. You turn away or look back. Shadow on your face. Very small photo. Picture blurred.
You think: Whatever! This is only photo! I looked better in a life.
People think about you: This people is dissatisfied with the way he look. He is a notorious. He dislike oneself.

Better: Don't place your bad photo to profile. Try to find something better. If you have not good quality photos, don't hurry. In this case, go without photo first time, but make it at soon. Photograph one another with your friends or your darlings. If you think that you are not photogenic, then you may to contact with studio or professional photographer.

It happens also that nice people place unsuccessful photo in profile, but they have many more successful photos where they looked much better. Show your photos to your friends and they will help you to choose best photos for your profile. At least, you will get some variants.

Profile-photo: your childish picture.
You think: Look at me! I so cutie!
People think about you: He/She is not matured? May be this people is dissatisfied with his/her life? May be he/she is displeased with oneself in present time?

Better. To place your latest photo is not necessarily (if you don't like your latest photo). Choose from your adult photos from that life period, when you felt yourself confidently, successful, happily. For example, the photo during love, successful holiday's trip or some any banquet. You can simply to choose one of your favorite photos. Better if your looks on photos have not difference from your looks at present time. But if you was photographed 10 years ago - make new photos. Smile!

Profile-photo: you dress unusual clothes on photo (for example, you are looks like a punk or you dress a Gypsy costume).
You think: I great original!I did not like everything!
People think about you: Strange people. He don't know code of conduct. He/She have not sense of proportion.

Better. If you wear black Gothic clothes or you wear dreadlocks – all right. But if you wear business suit to work then choose another photo. Your looks on the photo must look the part with your everyday image. If you wear jeans and sneakers everyday, then don't need to be photographed in slack suit.

Of course, all of people like to change image. Any people have several masks. Other people want to know who they will see at the meeting (you). Take picture in your Casual Wear. If you have several bright images choose your favorite one for profile photo.

Profile-photo: you in funny clothes, purple wig, clown's nose, unusual pose, put out one's tongue.
You think: I am funny! I have a good sense of humor!
People think about you: Silly Billy!

Better. The best method to show that you are funny people is your open wide smile! Another ways are bad ways. You will get a chance to show your sense of humor in future.

Profile-photo: decolletage or miniskirt (for women) or naked trunk, you in swimming trunks (for men). Sexual poses.
You think: I very sexual and self-confident people. I real tempter or temptress!
People think about you: woman of easy virtue, she don't think much of oneself (about women). Naive and straightforward person (about men).

Better. It is not necessary to wear tight clothes, strip oneself for you look sexy. Don't you understand it? You must to be with a twist for you look sexy. Be sure in your exclusiveness!

A garment adjusted to the figure, healthy look and clean-cut hair style will help you. And smile! A smile looks very sexy!
