What is it about a person’s Photo that would make you want to look at their profile?

Is it indescribable?

Hal,

I wouldn't say it's indescribable. There are several ways that a photograph will catch my attention.

Things I like in pics:

Smiles

a hint that shows you care about your appearance - haircut, glasses from this century (if you wear them)

photo should be recent

Indescribable

Yes, it’s very much “individual” – look at the turn off’s list. For some women they love the manly man Harley driving love machine and for others they like um more clean cut conservative (that would be me). There’s someone for everyone including looks.

For me to look at a profile or consider sending any type of "hi"... I generally go for the black, bald headed men. Once I see that, I will look deeper into your profile to see about age, location, race, religion. And then I will read the self desription.

A great smile from someone within my age perameters and I want to see their eyes.

I like dark hair and a great smile, that almost always catches my eye.

A clear picture where I can see their eye's is very important.

This is probably a dead thread by now, but I wanted to add my 2 cents (I'm a newbie)

1. A SMILEY FACE in the primary photo. I'd prefer this pic to be their best shot too.
2. At least one of the pictures is of him in a nice suit (shows that he appears to be a gentleman and someone that I can introduce to my parents).
3. 1 fun picture, either with friends or doing some type of sport he loves, or lounging at home.
4. Clear photos of different angles of his face, so I can tell what he looks like overall, not just a profile pick or 1 face angle.
5. A full body shot pic (clothed of course) so I can see what body type he has.

The things that catch my interest are very similar to what's already been said. The eyes are very important. I like to see eyes that smile. Of course a smile on the mouth is good too. I prefer guys that are clean cut, but really, it needs to be a pic that doesn't make him look like some deranged killer. I mean, really, why would you post a pic like that? I very seldom look at the incredibly good looking pics, except like someone already said, out of morbid curiosity. But I need to feel like this might be a person I could introduce to my family (Parents, sibs and kids) and not be embarrassed. I'm really big on guys that look like they shower and comb their hair! I'm just weird this way.
