Here are a few tips.

Being "funny" in a picture is a bad idea, especially since the woman only has the picture to go on.

Try this.

Don't wear a hat, wear a nice shirt, smile... and if you have access to a cute puppy or a cute infant, hold them in the picture.

Well, no, seriously I'm not in a relationship right now but I've been in relationships. Now, do you have a hard time getting dates because on your end it has to be a personality issue? I was going to start a thread with a relationship question about something going on right now but I'll do that some other time.

To be honest, that particular picture is just a really bad picture. You probably don't look like that everyday, and very few people I've spoken to has looked like that in every-day life.

It's just a good idea to not post that picture on a dating profile.

Well, no, it is a great guitar but that is getting into guitar politics. Sunburst or Desert Burst all cost the same the only one that is pricier is the Gold Top but I'm not a fan of the Gold Top. To be honest, I don't think you know much about guitars. Here is my Sound Cloud page if you want to hear me play:

Along with the crooked smile makes you look like you've had a stroke or a heart attack.

The Guns and Roses T-Shirt makes you look like you sweat a lot.

Pls change.

also to any mods: this is constructive criticism so don't give me an infraction for this.
Wow, that is harsh. I am Mexican. I think that is a problem people are having but I only date Hispanic women. So, a lot of responses are probably not in my demographic.

Oh, to the OP: You know your name is in the url for that pic, eh? Henry? lol
Well, that's my name. But as for the picture, I think the poster was talking about the original one. The pictures in the frame.

Artifice, you are much better looking than in that first photo, which I suspected--glad to see you're not a zombie. Now find a friend and go to the park and get some good shots of you having a good time and you'll be fine. And remember, the negative responses were only to the photo, which you asked about, and not you personally.

If this photo is an accurate representation of the way you currently look, I think it's fine to include it in your profile.
