Uniform Dating - Tips on Choosing the Perfect Profile Picture

Aside from making a killer profile, you need to have a killer picture to go along with it because one of the first things that prospective match will notice is the profile picture. Having a great picture will earn you more clicks or more people reading your profile. The picture is like the "STOP" sign that will get people to notice you, while the profile is like the Commercial Ad that will sell yourself to them. 

Okay, now they say that a picture paints a thousand words. You would want those painted words to be bright, colorful, positive words, don't you? You would not want your picture to be able to paint the gloomy, morose, and negative pictures. Trust me. Pictures allow people to see who you really are. 

Now, men are visual creatures, they say that women bank more on those who are more sensitive emotionally, but believe me, we also go for those singles who are attractive, especially on photos. Ever remember being attracted to a girl/guy before you even get to talk to them? The physical appearance of other people is what draws us to them first most of the time. Especially in cyberspace where you can't really have a face-to-face conversation, it's important to put a face to match the profile and the personality. 

Okay, so before you post any picture, DON'T. You cannot just post any picture in your file because you have to pick the best possible picture! Not just any picture will do. But before you do even that, ask yourself these two questions first: 

1. Who would you like to attract? This question can also be phrased as, "Who are your targets?" or "What kind of person would you want to take notice of you?" This is important to know because your personality in your picture must reflect the personality of those people who you want to be with you and those who you want to get to know more. In Uniform Dating where singles are abound, there aren't only a few hundred members, but there are thousands of available singles. So you need to know who you want to attract and let your picture speak for you. If you want a "serious" partner, then post a "serious" picture, not one of you in a bar. Let your personality and the personality of the person you are looking for come out in your picture. 

2. What is your best asset? Everyone has a best asset, and I mean everyone. Find a picture of you that shows your best side. Now, if there is something exceptional about you, show that I your picture too. Emphasize the best in you. If friends say you have a killer smile, then flaunt it. Never be afraid to flaunt what you have, but do not be too sexy, or exaggerated in your picture because that's a huge turn-off to most singles.
