As I look over ads I see so many that say real pics, not fake or similair comments. My immediate reaction is that it probably is fake. What do you guys think?

I find this on BP & Cl, which I use to see if there are any travelling young ladies or specials going on. I have learned not to TOFTT for now.

If it says, "100% real me or it's free", is a code word for a "managed" transient provider, whose "manager" is also being the listing's editor

I think that type of wording is passing into the standard posting procedure. As soon as 1 girl does at, the rest think they have to do it, too. Just like the disclaimer.

I've seen plenty of legit providers with the "100% real" verbiage. Well, that's a lie. It's usually "1000% ME!!!!!!" then the next girl needs to top that with more zeros.

It's the result of peer pressure, in a way, and you can't make a judgement either way with or without those statements.

I'd have to say that I've had great luck with pics...but bear in mind, unless the providers works under flash pods and with diffusion filters she will not look as good as the picture.  Most providers seem to get pics done once a year or so.  I'd consider anything less than a year old as current but if someone took a picture of me today (tan and in "summer shape") and then saw me in January (pasty white with 10 holiday pounds packed on) they would think I lied in my pics.

So...buyer beware; a quality professional pic adds at least 1 - 1.5 points to appearance, pics are taken under unnatural circumstances, pics portray the subject in the best possible pose, and even "recent" pics may not be an accurate representation...so...pics to be used as a guide only!

I see on reviews that people respond, "No" to "real photos" question, yet the respond to, "photos accurate" is followed up by an oxymoronic, "Yes". WTF!!!

BTW, not quite sure if I can post this link in here, but when a photo is TGTBT, I have used the reverse search to find out that the photo was stolen off other websites. YMMV:

My pics are real and they are me. It's hard to generalize as many people lie.

if i see it saying 100% real pics guaranteed and i go and its not her then i tell her she lied and falsely advertised someone elses pictures and i dont feel bad when i leave. a girl i saw said some real providers put it there because of the bait and switch ads by agencies and pictures being stolen.

I did a "professional" photo shoot once.. and they were awful. My pics are always taken at home, with a regular camera, and props I bought at Walmart... I'm often told my pics don't do me justice. And I put in all my ads, '100% me in the pics AND recent,or you pay nothing'... and I take new pics at least every 2 months or so. There are so many B&S artists out there, and tineye works sometimes, but unfortunately, some of these girls know about this site, and check their "stolen" pics first to see if a hit comes up before they use them. So not always is this disclaimer an immediate red flag that the pics are fake... reviews help too

the New Review section of TER, and check to see if the pictures are real, and if they're accurate. About the most reliable, quickest and easiest way I can think of. Speculation is just speculation.

"I see on reviews that people respond, "No" to "real photos" question, yet the respond to, "photos accurate" is followed up by an oxymoronic, "Yes". WTF!!!"

I take that to mean that the picture gives an accurate representation of the provider. Not that the picture itself is accurate or a picture of the provider. Often, when I've read such reviews of providers, the guys were quite pleased with the providers appearance.

Sometimes guys will say " Is that really you in the pics? You look great!" And the response would be yes, it's really me. I hadn't realized that putting " This is really me in the pics" or "real pics" would have the opposite effect. Interesting.

"My pictures are real" means she's lieing.

"My pictures are fake" means she's telling the truth, except then she's lieing so she can't be telling the truth.

"I won't say anything about my pictures" means she's hiding something.

So.....

What do you WANT her to say?

I think the source of the problem is not "The pictures are real" but rather "I find this on BP & CL".

Bring more on. I wish we could get what we can get.

I had one experience where the lady was not the one on the pic. Another instance - the picture was her, only 5-6 years older.  

Others I've seen are accurate. But you should ask for more than 2 pics, if in doubt.

Is girls who take pictures with stuffed monkeys. I always think the banana is photoshopped.....jk .......let me know if you are ever in philly.

I met.  This has not been a problem since I found TER.  I use the form & read the reviews plus look at the pictures...  I get a feeling from looking at them & that's enough to stall any meetings.

I know some girls who use real pics and some who say they are but are using known porn stars.  Stealing pics is not just limited to bp and cl ..... see it on eros and others too.

LOL Chuckyarla.... that was one of my favorite photo shoots... transforming my living room into a jungle for a couple hrs. That one and the "Greek Goddess" I just did about 2-3 mos ago.

I've worked for a couple of agencies while touring, and every one except 1, used fake pics for my advertising, even though I supplied them with my pics... everytime I found out from a client.."You almost really look like the girl in the pic"... huh??? I quit each one after I found out they were doing that.

with auto-snap feature.  Good bright natural sunlight helps.  
But still.. I think those professional pictures are more of a draw for men and those women get more biz becuz of them.

There is no such rule which says photos taken at cannot be photo shopped. There many software including free ones for editing photo's.

Touching is not bad thing if it is done tastefully. It is kind like wearing make up, how much is the real question!

One has to balance it with many other factor so, just inserting "Real Pics" is neither here nor there. Most experienced hobbits know how to spot a fake from 1000 miles, if they don't; they are using the wrong head and wrong part of the anatomy.

There are tell tale signs of a fake and one can also use TinEye these days. Not 100% but as they build their DB it will become more and more accurate. Every time you search, the picture gets added to the DB so use it often to help root out fakes. No I am not affiliated with TinEye.

Attention getting topic, minimally useful information. Generalization is the other part of assumption which make you and me an ass.

When I see "100% real pix", that has little impact because I've found that they are real pixs...occaisionally of someone else.
The pictures pique my interest and then I depend on the guys at TER for the real skinny. The difficulty I have at times is when the profile says "fake picture" AND "accurate picture". Huh?

That's why lately I have just been taking self taken photos lol with a cell phone...then usually, if I look ok or good in those, you generally look BETTER in person lol
