I used to ask for a pic and then close them if they didn't respond within 2 weeks. Right before my membership expired, a guy with no pic initiated with me and I thought I'd give it a try. He seemed like a nice guy but did not release his picture until OC. It's not that he was bad looking but he did come across as insecure to me and that is a turn off.

It was very unusual for me to get past the must have's stage unless a picture was made available. and yes, i would ask to have one posted, but found that most were non-paying members anyway.

I tried pursuing a match that did not post a pictureand when asked for a picture the chemistry just wasn't there so I closed it. So after that experience I closed the matches that didn't post any pictures, because it does give the impression that they are hiding something or are insecure about their looks....

I don't post a pic for a few reasons. First I want to get to know a little about someone before they see what I look like. I'm not trying to hide anything, but I think at times men can't get past looks...they're missing so much. Plus...some people, men and women both, may not be photogenic.

determining what is attractive is subjective. and yes it is shallow- but unless i find you attractive and you find me attractive- it is going to be really hard to make it work. so just save us all time and post your pics already.

I just don't have one to upload. Guess I'll have to go buy a camera . . . . but my pictures don't look as good as they used to. Hmmm, I just don't understand why?
