No Picture, No Reply

What's the nicest way to say this without looking like an arsehole? Girls can do it no problem because there's a lot of wierdos out there but if a guy does it he looks shallow. You wouldn't see people walking around a club with bags over their heads would you? laugh

yay yay yay yay yay
I do agree, it is a nice policy. No Pics , No reply
I state that on my profile laugh
Well if you think that way, then put that info on your profile.

Frankly though, I'm encountered some wonderful people who initially didn't have a photo, and who eventually shared one. If I'd discounted them because of no photo, I would have missed out on some great people to get to know as friends and another as someone very special.
I used to chat away to people with or without a picture. When I'd eventually get one and I didn't find the person attractive (come on I'm only human!) I didn't see the point in wasting their time or mine if I wasn't going to pursue it.

There's also been times where I got a picture and found the girl hot then they stopped replying so I'm not a total bad guy laugh
@dublin nerd

I agree with you....no picture, no reply
I guess it's just normal, I want to know whom I am dealing to.
So, why waste your time if you don't find the person attractive.
Hey, we are just human. head banger
I dont have one because I want to keep it private, but once I am talking to someone I have not problem in showing it to them, and the way I see it is, if they are that bothered that there is no picture, then maybe they are not right for me!!
It's shallow, no matter who does it. Change your view on this. Get to know somebody through communication first, then exchange photos. It is perfectly reasonable, and you get a much broader idea of who they are if you're not just going by a pic, which can be deceiving, anyhow.
I suggest to form 2 clubs: people without pics who search their partnmer by their soul, and people with pictures who have not only soul, but body too, so are shallow! cheering applause
@Blueocean
trade half n half.

Think win/win ! ! banana dancing cool


peace peace peace peace peace
yes!!!you should ..i have written it one my first day here:)
So a wierdo can be identified by their photo? Interesting.frustrated
i totally agree with u. no matter how many people drone on that looks dont really matter(guilty of that myself may i add) they really do matter. u have to find something attractive about that person. personalty is really important but u must have chemistry. u having much luck on this, iv just joined.
@ Rohaan - I must respectfully disagree. Tell me this: what did people do before internet dating came along huh? Did they walk around with their eyes closed talking to the first person that seemed nice?
@ pullme - Maybe not immediately but a picture helps laugh
I agree !!!

---- IMAGE REMOVED because photobucket.com no longer allows embedded images ----

thumbs up
@dublin_nerd: You have every right in asking for picture!! this site is Connecting Singles not ghosts! .. With all my respect to people who don't have a picture, but whatever relationship you are seeking for serious one or friendship, you should at least be able to see that person at the beginning ..

Even for a guy, stating that no picture, no reply doesn't imply that you are a shallow person whatsoever thumbs up ..
i mention that in my profile.. but, still i receive mails from faceless member dunno
Just write it the way you feel it on your profile.
And if you keep receiving email from women without pics on their profiles... tell them to read your profile before to talk to you laugh
As you can see I don't have a picture up but I have no problem sending a picture to anyone I chat to. I'm just not comfortable putting my picture up on the web for everyone to see. I like to keep my business private.

I don't think it is shallow to want to see who you are talking to and physical attraction is very important, that doesn't mean they have to be textbook gorgeous, they just need something that makes the chemistry work for you.
