Meh. I've rolled with different pics. More casual/professional looks, more rough-around-the-edges ones. I got a pretty dynamic sense of style. Same results nonetheless.

It's actually most fun when you travel, seeing how many matches you get in different places. I have a pretty big variance. Ie: where I'm actually from, I get like one hit a week, but then again I live in a small town. When I was in Texas I got 3-4 a day. Last trip I took was to Salt Lake City, and for whatever reason I got a lot of hits there too.

Yeah if a certain pic is not generating responses then you have to choose another

So you rotated pics and still no response? Then maybe they were not good pics and need to take some more. With me, I don't stop until I see results. I would keep the rotation process going until I see some positive feedback

What constitutes a 'good pic' exactly?

I got that. I've was using the one that 'My Best Face' rated the best, by a good margin. Zero matches [again] that weren't bots. ¯\(°_o)/¯

It should not be a selfie, your face should be clearly visible, but I prefer to see more than just a face in the photo.

Yeah same here, I want to see a girls whole body. Sorry ladies but its true, if you have nothing but face shots with duck faces you are probably hiding something.
