argh im getting really annoyed at the amount of messeges i get with people with no pictures ! I like to seee who i'm talking to! It doesn't take much to put a pic up and obviously we're not all supermodels so who cares what you look like if your embrassed to upload one !! I have looooooooooooads on mine! but people please, if you look like Shrek, it's coooool, looking like a giant bogie is a good thing ! =)

Maybe it's cos if they have a face like a smacked arse women won’t get their tits out for them when they ask

No pic is a given. If they're too shy or paranoid to put up a photo then don't sign up. Simple as.

The other no-no for me is profile information. If they can't be arsed to fill that in beyond their favourite bands then its 'buh-bye!'.

These are usually the ones found complaining about shit messages from men. Heres a hint; If you're not going to give a man anything to go off then don't be surprised if his opening message is less than stellar.

Oh wow you like Basement Jaxx! Well fuck me if I haven't just found my soulmate. Jesus.

'Likes' and 'dislikes' are a pisser too. Want to come across as a serial victim? Just put 'liars', 'cheats' or 'arrogant people' in your 'dislikes'. That way potential suitors can be sure you're bitter about being dumped and run a fucking mile.

Does anybody actually fill out all that profile information shit though ? To me it's a waste of time

i filled mine out, either it puts people off or my inbox has been blocked up and i have thousands of messages floating around cyberspace unable to get to me,

I suppose if it was a pay site then I'd actually make the effort and fill out the profile as people tend to be a lot more serious on those type of dating sites. On here I don’t see the point. I saw one profile that said i'd rather eat broken glass than to date off this site. If that’s the case why bother to join in the first place ?

I agree about putting at least something on your profile, i do tend to ignore those that shine out no personality on their profile whatsoever! Whether they have pics or not.. but i also like to perv alot

My old profile had 'stuff to read whilst bored' on it, but since I rejoined the other day, I have the bare minimum, just a crappy old picture and very little else.

I rarely use the dating site anyway, I just like the forums for a bit of fun.

When I have the time (by that I mean effort), I'll put something disgusting and repulsive on there, but till then I'll just have no personality.....

If your serious about finding someone why not fill it out, its great to read a bit of background in a person, I usually skip the ones without nothing, anyway think i've found what i'm looking for.....just doesnt happen very often

well i think if you have a pic, then thats the first move for someone to contact you ... and then you can see if you are compatible by asking some questions to see if you like the same things

Personally, before I had my pic up and I was posting on this message board, I had quite a few people contact me, since I've had my picture up hardly anyone. From this site anyway.

Is personality over looks a myth??

I know this sounds dim but how do you post a picture up on your profile? I have one in my gallery but am struggling...any help would be appreciated .
