Thanks for the honest critique ~ appreciate it. I know I need to get some better pics~it's just that I'm always the one behind the camera taking the pics. I guess I'll have a friend take a few. Should be a nice weekend so maybe I can get some outdoot shots~

I had that same problem, used to be just the pic w/D3 (2nd Bday) on my Match profile. Kept getting the "Your picture REALLY doesn't do you justice" comments at the OLD meet n greet dates. Soooo... I figured out how to operate my camera's timer function and took the other pictures when my kids were away last summer. I got a bunch of outfits out that I like, that were very different from one another (hey, the T-shirt in the picture that I use for my iVillage face is a Tshirt I designed for a Jazz Festival in the 80's- so subtly very me), and did hair and makeup and just took tons of pictures. Then I took more the next day and the next til I got a few that looked good, yet not too glammed up. I found ways to prop up the camera so it was at the right height and straight. Pay attention to what's in the background, nothing too distracting. Try different times of day and different lighting. Good luck!

R,
Thanks for your feedback--I still think it need tweeking, as well as a couple more photos. Unfortunately, I think there aren't a lot of men (my age) on match who want to date someone w/a six yo (who I have full time)--also, because of that, I am not wanting to date someone who lives more than ~15 miles away. So, the whole Boston scene is out for me. I'm just not into commuting for a date.

But, you understand the appeal of living near the ocean--I won't give that up!

I will be visiting friends in Middletown, RI this summer--I have your e-mail and I'll let you know when.
Mary
