I find it quite funny that those above who are complaining most about "No Photo" have no photo posted.

Yes, grammar and spelling are huge, sorry but it just says trailer trash to me, or someone not willing to make an effort (a good example of what you would get in a relationship with them).

Instant turn offs are "Looking for a Good Hearted Woman", and "No baggage" or "No Games". I have found that these people are those that tend to play/have games/baggage the most.

I also notice that the complaints seem to be the same regardless of the site you are on. (I have checked out a few) I thought maybe it was a case of "you get what you pay for" but I find the same quality profiles on free sites such as "plentyoffish", some good, some bad.

I would like to quote nec240 on the picture issue (says it all quite well and I toally agree!) :

- Tiny photo. I click to see the full size picture, and it's still too small to actually see any details. Tip: Post at least two recent pictures. A face shot, where I can see all the ugly details (I have them, too), and a tasteful body shot, where I can see what kind of shape you're in.

- "Sexy" photo. If you have ten photos up, and one is of you in a bikini, great. If you have three pictures, and all three are of you showing your cleavage, no thanks. I'm looking for a soul mate, not a hookup. If you look hot, that's awesome, but it shouldn't be all about your looks. Not in eH, anyway.

- Your photo with your much more attractive friend(s) [supahguy] It makes me want to date your friend(s).

- Photo next to car, motorcycle, or boat. Okay, you own a vehicle, or you really enjoy a vehicle. Fantastic. You're so cool. Nothing wrong with said methods of transportation, just don't include a photo of it, since it'll imply things I don't like.

- Photo of you drinking, holding a drink, or involved in a goofy drinking-related activity (e.g. wearing a "St. Patrick's 2009!" hat). Yes, you clearly enjoy drinking and you want me to think that you are a fun person. Ehh, not really. You're trying too hard. I drink socially, and enjoy alcohol, but I don't want you to think I'm addicted to anything.
