Collarme is an informative site that you can get quick feedback from interesting people willing to share and meet.   However, its a BEAR getting pictures approved.

What kind of pictures get your attention...to the point you have to write?

Ones that get passed by are nudes or pictures that only show the body...

A picture of a woman with that slighty devious look in her eyes can be as effective as a kick to the pills.

Absolutely phenomenal question (considering I'm a guy...)...

Eyes first...then smile.

(Really).

Carry that....I'm knocked over.

Status: offline 		Actually I'm quite surprised at what is being accepted anymore.  I love reading profiles and I do look at the pictures!  It used to be that no bondage was permitted, nothing that didnt show a face... anymore that is all I seem to be seeing!  What's up with that! 

But to answer the question, content, usually artistic in some way or something in the background catches my eye.  I cant say I have ever responded to a photo for any other reason.

Status: offline 		Truly thinking back, I cannot ever remember initiating communication with someone because of  their picture.  I usually would write someone because of something written in their profile. 
 
I will admit that I do enjoy putting faces with words of people in the forums much more than the avitars.  Some of these pictures are quite intriguing and I have been tempted to comment on some and have on a couple of different people.  Two come to mind that I think exude sex appeal.
 
As far as the images I post, one snapshot just does not give the a true "picture" of the person.  So, I try to keep all pictures current (within weeks) of different moments, capturing different thoughts and spirit..
 
Still a picture doesn't speak a thousand words..character does.
 
Always,
~curious~

Ive had loads of messages about my pic on my file.  I didnt think it was a great one but people seem to like it (black and white always looks good lol)

Status: offline 		ANY picture catches our eye. It indicates that a person is willing to expose themselves. Their manner of dress has nothing to do with that. Sometimes the main picture will attract us to look and see if there are any others, but a picture is a shortcut to getting the profile narrative read. Our goal is meeting people in person. It has been our experience that a person without a picture is more likely married or involved with someone who they are keeping this life secret, or someone who's major interest is a cyber exchange. We aren't interested in either of those possibilities.

This is a free site. Its too easy to set up a profile with no picture to troll and/or waste time. A picture puts yourself out there. We currently have our "search" parameter set to only show those with pictures. The problem that the owners of the site have is trying to determine which pictures belong and represent the profile. We've actually reported a few that were using pictures of people that I knew were in reality models that we'd seen on BDSM sites.

Regarding pictures being rejected; we've been here a few years and some of our pictures may have been 'grandfathered' in before the current standards and practices. But we have added some as recently as our last trip to Folsom. I don't really know how many are there now, but I don't recall any being rejected.

Keep trying, and ask for a 'why?' if what you requested to be posted is rejected. Show yourself in the manner that makes you comfortable.

Superficial? Sure! No different from noticing a tasty bit of eye candy in real life, you know?

Here, here. I have to agree with this one...but not just about dom women, but dom men and sub men (haven't viewed many sub women's profiles). I have actually found myself asking a couple of subs whether they ever smile. I think some people are of the impression that a non-smiling pic makes them look more sexy...and then again, some people don't like their smiles, for some reason.

Anyway, just my 2-cents worth.

MNN

P.S. Generally speaking, it's not that big a deal getting pics approved on here as long as those pics are not pornographic in nature...and personally, when I am checking out profiles, I'd rather see a person, not a pornographic projection of a person.

Status: offline 		i've gotten a lot of really nice messages about my pic.  i like it because my late Sir took it, and it showed me myself through HIS eyes, and it was a shock to see how he saw me.

i like natural pics myself.  show me who you are without a bunch of trappings, cause the trappings arent what i'm interested in.  the Sir who did ensnare me (bit of a private joke) got my mind interested first....and the rest of me followed.

kitten, who is quite content now.
