as one of the posters said, though, photographers know what they are doing and can make people look good, so I find the "Worst" pic is usually the most revealing.  

The move toward video is really helpful, as another poster noted.

I find so often that I am looking at a provider's site and all the pics look good.....until one of them shows the provider in an unappealing or less appealing (to me at least) light.  My general rule is that the worst pic is the most accurate.  I am just wondering if any one else has this experience -- so often I have been deterred by that one pic.

Lighting and poor composition are the most common cause of bad photos

"Honey, does this dress make my ass look fat?"

"No dear, your fat ass is what makes your fat ass look fat!!!" rofl

Yes, sometimes a bad photo can be more accurate, but its not 100% certain.  Photographers know what angles to use and play with to make good picture and vice-versa.

I do like the new trend of videos being on the ladies site, much easier to get a real-life idea.

He was, shall we say, not universally loved.  
I used to call him GatorGinny or GatorGina.  Remember?

I remember him quite well as I used to hale from the Orlando area.  I think that he is reincarnated on the DC board as it is often haunted by one particular "well liked" poster.

Can't get my old account back, its shit, but I guess its good knowing there is security around our accounts.

I will just have to make use of my pseudo anonymity now.

Sounds like you are a born again, died in the  the wool pessimist lol

As opposed to dyed in the yarn, dyed on the finished fabric. When the wool itself has the dye, the color won't soon fade.

Other than that, I don't think he's such a pessimist. Photos are posed for, taken, doctored, and selected to show the subject at her very best. The one that falls short of the mark would usually be the one that shows her most realistically. That's speaking just physically; spiritually I'm sure they're all knockouts.

...then his terminology would be correct.  :o)

(We just had a post yesterday about a guy crapping in a lady's mouth - so what the hell

and they removed the pic I'd attached.
Too bad, she was a lovely lady too, with a very "sheepish" smile.
Oh well.

If the person was indeed BORN again, then perhaps he did die in the wool.  (Perhaps crushed by a sheep stampede.  What a horrible way to go.)

If she does have a number of photos posted, naturally one of them may be judged by us as to be the least appealing--just like one of them will be most attractive to us.   I have found that photos, even though important, are by far not the most indicative quality of a lady.    

ONE somewhat less attractive photo in her list would never make a difference in my mind as to seeing her.  I have even noticed that some gals who have nothing but "spectacular" photos can be a bit disappointing.

And, what is wrong with seeing someone in a somewhat different "light"?  NONE of us are at our best all of time--especially when we are being viewed or judged by thousands of others.

Yes, I checked out one ladies pictures and I think its just a bad angle. If I see her, I'll probably mention it if I remember. It makes her look like she has giant thighs and every other photo shows her being very thin. So no that one photo isn't a hang up. There are so many angles that I now automatically become skeptical about. If I look at 20-50 photos and the lady is basically fully chad without showing much skin. I know there is an issue or she's got a terrible photographer. I'll just pass and not find out.  Old photos with dates on it, screams pass. 3 years without an update.. while yes she could have gotten into terrific shape, she didn't or she'd have new photos.  If you are paying more than the average bloke shouldn't you be picky? If you aren't picky, use backpage and TOFTT for us.

Every picture tells a story.  While it may appear static, a story - either good or bad - is forming in the mind of the viewer.

So, when you see your photos, what story do you want to relate, and are you doing so?

I suggest that you always have a small group of trusted confidants, both male and female, to critique the photo before it goes up.

Some people photograph better then they will ever look in real life, others can be gorgeous but not look so great in pics no matter how skilled the photographer.  
When I do pics I try to show all the different sides of me so in one I might be the girl next door and a dominatrix in another. They can be drastically different, so even if they are all good photos that accurately represent me one might not be your style and be a turn off.  

I don't think you can apply a blanket rule to everyone. Never mind all the providers with out of date or downright fake photos.  
I'd go with your overall impression, not a single photo. If you saw something you liked in 5 pics and there is 1 bad one to me its worth the risk of seeing her.

Every time I stop paying close attention, I find myself in trouble. By that I mean that when it comes to pictures, angles, lighting and attire can make a world of difference. Have found out the hard way that if a lady has nothing but pix that hide her belly, you can probably count on her having one. Just looked at a lady's website and found all her pix were closeups of various body parts, and most of those were out of focus. Gonna pass on this one.  

Conversely I certainly understand the need for privacy and obscuring part of their face, though will admit to preferring that they leave some indication of what their face looks like, if possible.

As a fairly proficient photographer (sales to national and international publications) I see a lot of beautiful women portfolios (for sex related and more sedate markets). What I find boring is the same facial expression in all the images. My suggestion to the ladies is to mix up your images to express the various persona of your sexual persona. Of course display your anatomical  Assets, Titsets Lipsets as well. LOL

everybody looks different in a photo compared to real life.

what amazes me is than so many times the lady behind the door is WAY more beautiful than how she appears in the photos.  casual photos rarely do justice to a woman's true beauty.  

So many times I am expecting a 6 or 7 and end up she is 9 or 10.

always a pleasant surprise!

however sometimes you end up realizing the photos are many rough years ago.
