The right bait: icons for personal sites

[danaeris]

A vain poll to cheer me up before I go to sleep. I currently am using a dissatisfactory icon for all my personal ads. My goal is to attract non-sketchy friend and relationship potentials, and I'm asking for your advice!

collared with tails for accuracy...

[http://users.livejournal.com/_duncan/]

*Accurate* becomes an eliminating factor on the first part.

The first shows a wider face than I remember.
The second looks like one eyeball was outlined in whiteout.
The Jillian Anderson set shows a thinner face than I remember.
The one in harsh sunlight doesn't show your HAIR.
Collared with pigtails is a clear winner.
The next two are unacceptably blotchy, as if resized.

My favorite for a personals ad, though, has nothing to do with accuracy. Mmm, makeup and boobs.

I suppose I should clarify that I'm particularly bad at facial recognition and am also easily thrown off by superficial changes like wigs and sometimes even hats. Also a bit of a photo snob. The best produced photos in the bunch are definately the Jillian series, with the second one (head tilted slightly toward the nearer shoulder) being the best.

Of course you could always go for the free labor option by posting big, clear images and asking people to crop and shrink and colorize to the lj icon spec. Some exposure changes to the first few would put 'em back in the running.

I think you look super cute in the one with the pigtails and collar, but pigtails and a collar sucker me in every time! And the last one is very cute as well. Love the mesh shirt ^_^

To be fair, Shadow and I contacted you on your info, not your image, if that says anything. You sound like an interesting girl, and I think that will attact people just as much as any of the images you use.

I can't seem to work the poll, so I'll post instead. Ironically, I think they're all good pics save the second to last. Which one to use on personals depends what you're going for.

i cant get the poll to work properly either but i think the collar and pig-tails is good along with the red mesh top but then again you can ask rbowspryte, mesh tops and pig-tails really do things for me.

It should work now that I've added you as a friend. Would you believe I didn't have your LJ username? While I'm at it, do K, P, or T have LJs?

*wicked giggles* muahahahaha! Mind control via mesh tops and pig-tails! And perhaps bouncing breasts. If there are pig-tails, there should be bouncing, and then breasts bounce, and they look nice bouncing under mesh. These are the breasts you're looking for; nevermind me taking over the world while you're distracted by them...

Thanks!

OK, that's ironic. I've had him friended from online encounters for a while. Never met him though.

More small-world syndrome! Ahhh! :)
