immanuelle: Hallo Ven...Es tut mir sehr leid. Ich bin schlimm. Ich komme and und ich gehe. I like to keep my photo up when I am actively engaging in the forums, otherwise I take it down. It's kind of like being at a party. If I am there, you can see me, if I'm not, you can't. I guess I am odd that way.
Loved the replies by all. Even though I would like to say that I am not influenced by looks, I'd be lying.

I am.

I go with gut feel with most people. If I like the look, like the twinkle in the eye, like the smile, then I want to know the person (platonic or otherwise). If I get a creepy feel, then I don't. I assume (of course) that profiles are what they say they are. I can't live my happy little rose-coloured bubble life if I am second-guessing whether someone is being real or not. Truth will always emerge I think. Besides which, if I am hoping for a romantic relationship, I would never engage in conversation with someone who lives more than a short car ride away from me...
I have met 5 people in real life from CS and they were exactly as they said they were and as their pictures showed. I still have a good friendship with 2 and am happy happy happy, stupid happy with one.
Still, love to be able to create a mental picture of the people I am chatting with on the forums. Adds a special dimension.
Bye for now Ven.

'Cept at times it felt like I was a Jack in a Box!
I have met 2 people from CS. One was as I had known him to be. The other, well, I won't go into that, though in some ways not too many surprises.
I'm so happy for you, Imma, that you have found YOUR someone special!
Yes, Elley, why don't you follow Rilly's example. For ages, he was a blank face in the crowd. Until one day, after we begged and begged, he graced us with his photo. So now we can put a face to a name. Which is all that it is about. Not winning glam competitions.
So, c'mon Elley. Pleaaaaaaase.
Imma and I will give you biiiiiiiiiig hugs.
