But what about you profile pics? dunno


I had a conversation with a friend of mine here, about photo ratings,...It got me wondering what others think and feel about the whole process with rating members' photos. cool

Some ideas to ponder...
What is your rating style? For example, do you always/mostly give a 10 rating, or do you rate less idealistically? (hopefully, no 1's!)yay ....Or, like me, you never actually rate anyone's photos.

Do you bother to look at your photo ratings, and if so, what do they mean to you? Is it really a spring board to try and chat with that cute guy or gal, or somehow or other, just to get noticed?
heart wings smitten lips (applies also to the one who rates).

Would you regard photo rating as a must-do activity to get yourself noticed on CS? flirty shimmy cartwheel rose in teeth
I know some people who simply love/have to rate - Personally, I'm not fussed about it either way, so at this rate.....uh oh

peace cheers wave uh oh

I observed photo ratings for a while and came to the conclusion that it tells you more about the rater, than the ratee.

thumbs up

I have never rated someone's photo, so I expect it would be a strange thing to do. I would probably rate the photo based on its creative composition.dunno

A kind of belated p.s....

In case some of these raters come to mind, what kind of things did you conclude about them at the time, jac?

I don't rate photos I'm more concerned on how they conduct themselves in the forums.

It's a given that pics don't say much about someones personality.

When rating photos, I give out a lot of 10's....First it takes nerve to put up a photo,
the look on the face may show a life well lived and if the photos show life around them that makes me even happier. I will give your dog or cat a 10 because you are kind to animals.
The nice thing about rating photos you will receive emails from people
who would never post on the forums and they too are worth knowing.

So, for you it's another way of initiating potentitial contact with soeone whose pics you like.... with thumbs up

I agree with you, if I ever did go and rate a pic, I would most likely give all 10's as well. There is always something interesting to be said about the picture. They each tell a story.

p.s. send emails, you say hmmm typing
