Would you comment on a bad photo? - 1/10/2009 4:33:03 PM

Status: offline 		I don't mean say something mean or derogatory, but earlier someone viewed our profile who was seeking.  They have a pic up, which is grand, real person and all.  However, the picture is taken from a low angle and they have some massive boogies hanging out of their nose.  I guess I probably shouldn't say anything, it's not like they asked for feedback or even propositioned me, but I think I'd want to know.   After all maybe their vision is reeeaaalllly bad and they don't see the boogies. 

I would never normally offer feedback on a profile if the user had not solicited it, but this seems different. I suppose it could be some kind of fetish too.

Thoughts, similar stories perhaps?

If I was the person with that photo, I'd want to know. I'd want to die from embarrassment, but at least I could remove the offending photo and put up a better one.

I actually did send a comment to someone who was perched on a counter with clutter everywhere...he got a little defensive at first but then I explained that the post party mess detracted from him and all he had to do was crop it a bit.

But, since in your case, this is the first time you had contact with said person...
I probably wouldn't......

CMail it to me and I will.... in a subtle way, bring it to their attention....

I just have to say....."massive boogies" (I'll presume you were describing "boogers"..."snot bags"...."hangers"...."face anchors")....

Are a HUUUUUUGE fucking no no.

As far as the boogie issue... I don't know, it'd turn me off of wanting to socialize with that person.

Status: offline 		That would depend on how bad the photo was. A messy room or bad lighting I can get around. Boogies or stains on the clothes, things like that I will, if they make first contact. I dont go commenting on any old photo in a profile that pops up but if they contact me I usually will.

The thing is, I wouldn't comment on a bad photo.. Not everybody is photogenic, I see a lot of photos taken from cameras in mobile phones and perhaps taken from cameras with timers, and maybe not everybody can use graphics software like Adobe Photoshop or the GIMP.

What is a photo anyway but a snapshot taken from a second of someone's life?
