Just use the beach pic. Make sure you photoshop some bigger arms on yourself.

I think my arms are more than adequate, especially since I was just waking up and not flexing like some meathead d-bag. Don't even know how to use photoshop. Thanks for your input though.

Relax. Online dating is all about pictures and shallowness at first. He is going to state his height on his profile anyway but his pictures should emphasize on his strong points rather than weak points.

 

That doesn't necessarily have to be a weak point. I'd rather have dodged that bullet ahead of time, honestly.

Why are you so fixated on the wedding pic? Don't use it. And the last cropped one you posted Is good. Use that and the beach one.

I'm not, just hoping to use as many as I cae. BTW, I posted this thread and those pics on another site and I got blasted on each and every one. People are freaking mean. You would think they were all models. I don't have all that much to chooce from and one picture is never enough for most women. I got blasted for the ballgame photos for a having a light behind me, I got blasted for the beach pic simply because I'm shirtless and was told I should take a shirted beach picture....who wears a shirt while the sun is out on the beach??

 

I know this sounds defensive while I'm asking for feedback, but it makes me think that everyone is a little hypercritical. I am not perfect, I don't have a professional photographer following me around, I don't have countless photo's to choose from. Man, I just wanted some feedback and I got my butt ripped on the other site.

 

I wish everyone that ripped me here and there showed their amazing shots. Way to be supportive.

Haters gonna hate. What can you do? I don't think your shirtless picture was arrogant or bad at all. It shows that you have a good body. You can use only a couple for now and as time passes add more to it.

Bro that ain't the right attitude. Arms are like titties; they can never be adequate.

All right, I am looking for some literary men and women to assist. This is my rough draft for my profile for this OLD site. I often have difficulty with this fashion of writing as it does not come naturally. I'd appreciate any and all recommendations!

 

{I am a fun loving guy with a sarcastic sense of humor. I love to laugh and I enjoy those who are kind and loyal. I am an educated guy who very much appreciates an intelligent woman. I'm always learning more about myself and life each day. Adventure sports are my way to unwind from a long week. Mtn biking, running, hiking, kayaking, working out and anything else outdoors and preferably on or in water are some of my passions. There are definitely times I enjoy just staying in and watching a movie, game or similar as well. Fairly talented at cooking.

 

I am attracted to someone who tries to enjoy everyday of their life and wants to share hers' with me and take part in mine. Someone who likes to move outside of their comfort zone and try new things sometimes. Someone who knows who they are and what they want, including in relationships. A woman who loves herself is a woman I want to know. If you love the beach, dogs and the Phillies all the better.

 

Say hello if interested and we'll go from there.}

I've highlighted some clichés that you could avoid or express differently. (Read a few profiles... you'll soon get bored of reading those phrases... and, who doesn't love to laugh?)

Thanks oaks!

 

So is this good enough?(essentially just removed what you bolded)

Or does it need more/something else?
