i need some advise from fellow subs who have succesfully gotten pics accepted in profiles. i'd like to do a tasteful pic which shows me as a submissive, but for many reasons does not do a full face shot. First thing i tried was kneeling facedown with nothing on, head facing camera so as not to catch butt or genital area. Didn't reveal my exact identity yet still shows me as a sub. Didn't fly here. Fine with that.
Not going to get too discouraged or badmouth the place, i just want to know what i can tastefully do that should work. Want to avoid anything completely vanilla--i'm a sub. Any thoughts?

Hi Cathmeplease. I tried a few things and they get shot down too. I am only left with DRESS UP pictures, still not showing the face. I have a lot of pictures, mostly Tied and Gagged, but they keep getting shot down. You can always contact a moderator on the subject...or see what the guidelines are.

Or you can do what I did...put all the pictures you want in a PRIVATE Yahoo Photo folder, and give who ever you want, invitations to see it.

Good Luck, and welcome to the group.

Curious to see your Pictures, BalletBob

If you're a female, the standards are different than for males--at least in my experience. Corsets, bras, panties, on all fours with a crop in your teeth is ok is you're a woman on collarme. Guys have to be dressed like golfers.
It's trial and error with collarme, keep trying, de-sex your pictures until they're happy. Think of it as if sending it to your grandma. That's the collarme aesthetic.

Why is there such a big difference between you looking "submissive" versus looking "vanilla"?

Trust me, we're out there, at the malls, at the restaurants...we look just like everyone else.

I can understand wanting a sexy pic, or a stereotypically submissive pose or outfit (BTW- a full leather hood is a good way to go to cover your face) but why the emphasis so much against "no vanilla"?

Just say "cheese", or better yet, place a piece of cheese between your legs and print the caption..i'm bringing the cheese and the whine.

Just my .02 and good luck, Kevin

Not true!

I've never even tried to look like a golfer and they took my pics!

Doesn't that Neon Sign get kind of heavy after while? And how about the Long Extension Cord? Where can I get mine? From "SUB SIGNS ARE US"?

Jelious....Not looking like a GOPHER either...I mean Golfer. I keep getting the 2 mixed up...they both chase balls, right?

yes, I've had a few pictures rejected. I thought they fit, and have seen others...somewhat...like them...but, no.
I feel now that they really do want face shots...

Hello There,
How about wearing a teddy & thigh highs, kneeling on the center of a bed, and have your arms out straight next to your ears with your face in the bed? Kind of a butt up shot from the side. They might take that, and you won't be showing your face.
Sincerely,
sub suzanne

If you take a look at the pics I have on here, you can see what they will accept. I don't show my face in any of them.

I did that. I contacted Customer Service and was told if I didn't like it, I could leave. I thought that was rather rude, because all I asked was what was wrong with my pic, since I'd seen pics on profiles of bare breasts, and one of a woman on a spanking bench with a ball gag, and another nude one.

My own pic was of Master and myself, fully clothed, only I was in a steel stock-type thing that held my arms out at right angles from my body and I had a leash. The pic was rather dark, though, and you really couldn't tell I had anything more than a collar on without looking closely, but it was first approved, and the next day I was told it was rejected. So I found the only other one we had, which makes me look like a complete dork, and Master looks pissed off, but that one was approved.

Damn. It sounds more ridiculous here than alt.com for posting pics - and i had enough of a fight with them for rejecting my pics even though they were within the criteria stated. i exchanged several e-mail with them about that. bleagh.

Hi Evanesce. If you want to e-mail me that picture, I might be able to lighten it up for you, and then send it back to you. Maybe you can post it here then....LOL

Always have fun, and be Bound and Gagged, BalletBob
