People with pictures, but only body shots

[(deleted)]

It really irritates me especially when transgender people fail to post a picture of their face. I do not care what your excuse for it is, if you are on a DATING website looking for someone to DATE then the least you can do is post a picture with your FACE in it. Nobody is pretty to everyone and everybody has flaws, faults and shortcomings.

`i totally agree with you ^ well said :)

`I would agree, but you gotta understand some people arent 100% ready to share their face with EVERYONE on a dating site. it takes a little interest and encouragement sometimes, and sometimes people just like to hold a little back that they can reward the genuinely interested people with - ie. those that like the profile and get in touch!! thats the way i see it, its like a trust and NO TIME WASTERs kind of thing? xxx craig

Just wanted to add our two cents on this topic.

One of the reasons we added the Avatar option into the network was to encourage people to have some sort of photo/image associated with their account.

While members can create any type of Avatar they would like, this option allows members to add a character that represents what they actually look like.

We would like to encourage members to add photos into their accounts, but until they are ready, they should definitely add an Avatar image.

And no, there is no way to add just a body shot Avatar image.

Thanks,

`Also, you need to take into account that some people aren't comfortable with how they look (such as myself) despite the fact that their told they're good looking.

(I never use full pics of my face on the net)

`for me it depends on what your looking for..

since I live so far away away i'm generally just looking for a chat and a good time. I dont feel in my cause it would be nessesarry with a picture because if your just talking to people then your look dosent matter so much.

however if your want to meet up with people for real
then I feel its a good idea to see the person.

if not on the web then at least send some few picture so the person can reconize you when you meet up

`Presumably so their wives/girlfriends/partners/work colleagues don't find them out? As for the avatar things, they just look stupid and I wouldn't be interested in someone with that as a profile picture. It's almost as lazy as not having one. Sorry but you did ask.

I hate my face and I hate my body, pero since I am *looking* for someone it is -------- for them to not know what I look like. Why would I want to waste my time on some vato I don't even know what they look like? I don't y I won't no matter what the excuse is. Everyone has a past, but that is just it, it's the PAST embrace who you are now and if you can't then why even be trying to date anyone? Seriously?

`I agree 100% with Natalie .To start if an ugly old bat like me can show my face then anyone can , the reason people do not show thier faces is because they are married or in a ralationship its the only answer .If you are ashamed of being transgendered or a so called admirer then you realy should not be on a trans website .
Sorry if the truth hurts and you can hate me for my honesty but my honesty is one thing i pride myself on! try it you will feel much better for it.

`I get what you are saying, some people are self conscious about their face, or sometimes it is easier to transform their body into the correct gender, and the face is a little harder to change.

I have my face in my pictures :)
