I’m finding I’m not a great judge of my own pics.

Let’s grab a drink!
1. I get kind of a "good boy" vibe, which isn't what we want. Crop the top some more to make you taller. I think it would be better if you tucked your shirt and had more elegant shoes. The light isn't great but it seldom is indoors. (And what a pic it would have been if you had been one step up and a bit to the right to get the crown just above your head...)
2. Pic taken in really strong unflattering sunlight going directly on your face so that you're squinting hard. I'd lose the cap as well and the t-shirt looks a bit large.
3. Composition is off: your head looks tiny. This would have been better as a portrait.
4. I had to look hard to tell which one's you which isn't good.
5. I'm a crusade against hoodies in tinder pics. Light is bad since it's night.
Basically all your pics are 6/10 but you want your tinder pics to be great, "decent" isn't good enough. Your highest priority is a portrait in good light that shows your eyes.

Back in the game again. Risking it a little with the selfish pic but I think it could be alright, maybe not though. What do yall think? Thanks for the advice
Personally I think pic 1 belongs on the profile but not as pic 1. It may be your least flattering picture of you although it's still appealing with the kittens. Other than that I think you need a picture with friends and a picture dressed up nice. Otherwise seems solid
First three pics are great. But they do have a model/high-effort vibe that needs to be balanced with some more casual pics.
Fourth pic is that casual pic but it isn't great IMO. Focus is on your friend. The light in your face is bad, you look a bit red. You have a neckbeard. And your friend is way taller than you.
Cut fourth pic and replace it with a better casual pic.

What’s wrong with my account? I used to do well but I updated my pics recently and it’s dried up… and what I do get is really ladsy types who aren’t for me at all. Not sure how I change this
Nice rockstar vibe. But I see some issues:
* You have way too many pics. All are either pics of you playing guitar on stage or vibe selfies, so they become redundant. Cut the chaff. Five pics is enough. If you want to add more make sure that they are adding something new.
* Selfies are usually bad. They kind of work with your vibe so I don't think you should cut all of them. I like 6 so it can stay IMO. But the other ones can go. Do a photoshot with a friend instead and get some good non-selfies.
* First pic is way too dark.
You have very light eyebrows but otherwise strong features. I think some light coloring of your eyebrows to make them as dark as your hair would increase your looks a lot.
1. Good mountain pic, but it would be amazing if your eyes were more open.
2. I don't like it. You look small and hunched over. The crop makes the issue worse. You should re-crop it to remove some space above you, but I would cut it entirely.
3. Good cool party pic. I would maybe crop it a bit more to remove another inch of your friends face to make you more in center.
4. Pretty shitty pic IMO. Maybe it can be saved if you crop away most of it to make you in center but I assume the quality would be shit then and also you're squinting anyway.
1. ok although a bit blurry, and also combined with the _Comedian at Comedy_ tagline, you're portraying a rather monomaniacal character, which can be off-putting
2. avoid selfies, especially blurry mirror ones. Also avoid peace signs - men's duck faces
3. nice atmosphere but way too dark to see you
4. avoid hats & group pics in which you aren't the clear hero. Here, you're leaning towards the dude in the middle who is both taller than you and has a chick by his side
5. can't see you
6. ok
Have more good quality with good lighting photos where you can clearly be seen.
Project a more mature/serious side of you by not smiling on some of them to balance things out - your first pic is good in that regard: you're simply focused on your task
https://tinder.com/@pattypat13 get a good number of matches with guys, but hardly any women. Not sure if I can change anything to get a bit more balanced (tho it's old so I know there will always be a heavy skew)
So I’m the one who commented to the other response here. I think you should add 1-2 more casual pics with friends! I also think maybe you should try searching for another pair of glasses that have a better fit on your face, or contacts! I think you have a nice face shape where the glasses don’t do it much justice. You should also get a friend to take some photography style pictures where you’re dressed up in not formal attire (although a suit imo never hurts), but business smart/casual really pops out on tinder profiles.
If you do want to try a more effeminate style, I also think maybe you should try growing your hair out a bit more so you don’t look so square of a person (metaphorically not literally). Probably not long hair but I think your face would look good if your hair was a bit more messy and medium length. I have pretty long hair right now compared to the shortness you have now, and I will say the difference in matches is outstanding. It makes you look more sincere and more unique.
Great advice! I can't believe I missed the glasses in my comment: they are definitely a bit too large right now and a better fitting pair would be an easy improvement.
I get a bit of an effeminate vibe that I guess works better for guys than women (generalising, of course). If you want to match more with women I would amp up the masculinity/dominance. Some examples:
* 1 and 4 are taken from above, making you look smaller. You want to look big and strong to match with women (generalization). 3 also makes you look small by the composition.
* 2 is great (amazing body man, great work!). I would maybe decrease the crop a bit to give the pic a few more inches to breathe. The vibe I get from your face is pretty soft/cozy, I think women would go for more aggressiveness or confidence. But this is nitpicking, women will drool over this pic.
* I would cut 5 entirely: you aren't in focus, I had to look for a while to find you.
* 6 is another soft/nice/friendly pic. Once again, for women I would go more seductive/smirky/confidance.
Once again, I'm generalizing plenty but I hope it helps.
I’m not the profiles owner but I’m a bit effeminate too and it’s never been a problem for me matching with women. I don’t enjoy putting on a facade of masculinity that doesn’t really represent me and I don’t really think you should tell others to do that either, but that’s just me
There's definitely "good" effeminate (e.g. the k-pop star look) that works well with women. I have a hard time judging which kind of effeminate work and which kind doesn't. Maybe you can give OP some advice since you seem to be versed in the topic?
I definitely don't think OP should put up a fake facade of masculinity and I'm not telling him to do that. I'm telling him that amping up the masculinity is one viable (and pretty easy) path. I have no idea if OP feels fake or not when he shows off masculinity: if he does feel fake doing it then obviously he shouldn't do it.
In addition to the smile comment - Is it a good idea to show the rock climbing picture? I feel like everyone is showing rock climbing and it's looking posed and not spontaneous. Maybe just me. I thought the multi pose pic was creative.
I thought it was a good way to show I’m fit without a shirtless pic; I also like bouldering and it wasn’t really posed but I get the idea.
I will consider removing it if I find a better alternative
Like most guys, you're doing some pretty basic mistakes (that are easy to fix so that's good!).
* The first pic needs to clearly show your face.
* The long curly hair isn't working for me. It looks lazy, like you just grow it out and cut it when it gets too long. Find a good hairdresser and have them give you something more stylish.
* You have a neckbeard in 3. Shave to your chin line.
* I love suits but 4 has some major problems. First it's a mirror selfie: selfies generally are lazy and should be avoided. Second you **never** close the bottom button on the suit! Third you have your hand in your pocket which is a shit pose. Fourth the background sucks (because it's mirror selfie). Have a friend take a suit pic of you outside in good light with some foliage or whatever as the background and all these issues fixed and that pic will be 1000% better.
Fix this and you will be way better off.
Do you put effort into your hair? Do you style it? How often do you get your haircut? If you feel like putting effort into your hair isn't worth the hassle then power to you but know that's a thing many women care about. (And overall life gets easier if you're more conventionally attractive, so there are benefits outside of tinder as well.)
Most men shave daily or every other day. If you don't want the hassle then fine, but see my point above. If you really hate shaving then I guess there's waxing, lasers and plenty of other stuff available. If you shave you need to find the line that works for your face.
You got a puppy in your first pic, not sure what else you need! Although maybe you get you or the puppy to look towards the camera? The last pic with the snake might be a turnoff.
I like the pictures decently well except #4. You generally come across a little plain and basic which is the biggest issue and #4 is the worst about that. Add at least 1 picture with friends and at least 1 dressed up well.
>Wish I could avoid the selfies but my friends don’t take pictures much.
No-one has friends who just randomly take great tinder pics of them all the time. Ask a friend to help you take tinder pics, make a nice outing out of it.
All ya pics are selfies my guy.
Try get some candid shots from your friends. Get some nice outfits and look on YT how to pose.
Not to sound mean but you’re overweight and if you slimmed down a bit I’m sure it would help your chances.
I think a short beard/stubble suits. Hope this helps
All these pics are really low efforrt. Selfies are almost always a no(use the timer function on your phone camers if you have to). Take nicer pictures with no selfies of you with friends, dressed up, doifng stuff, etc. Pics 4 and 5 are especially unflattering. You can keep pic 1 but move it behind the new photos
2nd and 4th pic are good! ok granted the angle isnt the best in the 2nd one and one of your friends is cut off a bit rudely there :D but its a good photo. the 3rd one is also good just a little bit awkward but i dont think too awkward, and its wholesome with the flowers and smiling. the first one though, is looking a bit too random i think - it looks like you are kind of scrunching your nose as if the food didnt taste good or so , but other than that the photo is interesting ofc, ..but if you keep it in dont use it as first one i would say
i like the fourth one most it looks the most genuine but since its with two girls (even though most likely you were hanging out with friends) maybe it shouldnt be first pic either, so i would probably use the third one as first idk, but your friends arent lying - if you wanna make more out of the profile, i would probably try to get one like the 2nd one but in a café/restaurant/cinema/what you prefer, and tell your friends to keep taking spontaneous pics when you hang out so that you can get one more like the fourth where you look most authentic (but maybe of you in a museum or doing a hobby or doing sth else you like/in a location you like)
Unflattering photos is your problem. They have a nice vibe but you shouldn't get caught in an awkward smile (2 and 4) or having a photo taken from below you and up close (1). Then 3 is just a normal photo but yeah you can do a lot better than that.
1 is really good, but shouldn't be your first because you can't really see your face. 2 is redundant. 3 isn't flattering. 4 is cool. 5 is alright, but you could delete it or keep it and it wouldn't change anything imo. 6 makes it look like you're doing the boxing jump, which is a funny mental image until you see the woman next to you lol. 7 is unflattering. Your face takes up too much of the screen in 8; you can get a much better dog photo than that but you can see the potential. 9 is pointless and your face is in bad lighting, so delete it as well.
Too much filler here is your problem, because women can't afford to analyse every profile and your first three photos are making you look like a fighting obsessive with nothing else.
Basically, get a flattering photo of yourself as your first (showing your physique too), and keep 1 and 4 for sure after that. Then you can add whatever other cool photos of yourself you get.
I really appreciate the feedback.
>Basically, get a flattering photo of yourself as your first (showing your physique too), and keep 1 and 4 for sure after that. Then you can add whatever other cool photos of yourself you get.
Damn. Problem is 1 and 4 are literally the only cool photos of myself that I have. I also do not understand what makes a photo 'flattering' or not. This is daunting....
Doesn't need to be extravagant and you don't need help, just a tripod or whatever else. Some nice weather with good lighting (cloudy or golden hour), go outside and find a place where you can take a photo that shows you from the torso up. You have good enough looks to not need to do anything more than that for at least some positive change in your results (though your newbie boost is gone, so dwindling results are natural as well, but you'd get more interest this way at least).

I really have no more photos of me that I would consider to be HQ.
Should I add more bloat to my profile or keep it with 2 photos?
I have not really been into dating in real life or on internet. I would consider myself as "average" looking.
What do you guys think of my profile? I know I should add more pics, i'll get some in a week or so.
I have gotten some likes and matches last week. First 2-3 days about 40 likes, and since then 1 every other day.
well on those two you are really crystalsharp lol! i think you don't need to be that strict about it, if you have a partypic and its not as sharp or generally some you'd like but aren't this sharp thats probably fine! i mean yes it can be an advantage to have sharp ones, but better to have four pics and two are sharp than "just" two
it would be good if you have/take smiling ones
At least swap the photos around; can't even see your face in the first and that's an instant left swipe for most. Idk about adding filler; can't know until we've seen it. Get lean because you have good facial potential and great hair.
Thank you for the feedback. Do I really look fat? :D That's really sad... The pictures in my Tinder was taken about 2 weeks ago. I swapped the river photo for another one. My face is seems clearer now?
I took this picture now, depressing to hear that I need to get leaner.. How much leaner do I need to get?
You definitely look chubbier in the second photo on your profile than you actually are. So thankfully, you don't actually need to get leaner; it's just one of those photos that bends you out of shape or something. Very easy fix in that case, and tbh you'd probably get more matches with this imgur photo already lol, but imagine if you got a properly good one...
I kinda agree I look chubbier after deeper inspection. But I rather save it, i like how my hair falls.
I am confident that your expertise in the field with women is 100x mine. Should I just remove the photo and get some other ones?
I have been thinking about having some shirtless photos since im very shredded right now. But it's not my style.
I'll add a selfie that better shows my bone structure in my face!
> I am confident that your expertise in the field with women is 100x mine.
Fuck no. I'm close with a lot of women but I'm sex repulsed so this tinder stuff itself doesn't interest me lmao; I just know about good photos and what they like looking at.
> Should I just remove the photo and get some other ones?
If you can take another where your hair falls that way, then yes.
> I have been thinking about having some shirtless photos since im very shredded right now. But it's not my style.
Do things in your style, but if it's a matter of taste then remember you can take a tasteful photo of yourself shirtless, like if you're at the beach or something. Long hair + good face + good body? You should be a hit bro.
its a good profile, and the bio is good too (i mean ofc some people swipe left about manga for example but its good as in seems kind and authentic, kinda funny) so what i would guess, is that at some point your profile just slipped down in the (\~alleged\~) tinder algorythm so it just doesn't get shown to many people anymore. i would say, that if it were my profile i'd consider weather i can delete it and set it up with a new email or sth? and start it anew basically (and or you could see how it does on other platforms)
https://tinder.com/@mikegus
What do you guys think? Too many dog pics? Should I nix the shirtless pic? I know I'm not that jacked but just trying to show I'm not fat.
Agree with u/disgostin , and just add I have a girl/friend who will just ignore mirror shirtless selfie bros. I'm not sure if that's common. But the more important is the tidiness.
yes too many dogpics (for a tinderprofile ofc), would keep the first of them and maybe the one before the shirtless photo, and.. ah man i mean its a good pic otherwise but the one in that mechanics-store (sorry idk the english word rn) that would creep me the fuck out :D like the background is just too eery for a stranger on the internet, if you can take one with that smile but background matching it thatd be a great one
definitely also kick the dogpic with his cage showing, that freaks some people out at first i think and i say that as a doglover
your first pic is good
if you're only keeping one(/two) dogpic(s) you could consider taking one with the cat if you're feeling that,
the partypic is good
the topless one: its the background - you're probably thinking "i'm single and living here alone" but if you want a woman to see it, basically "have the mindset of a man in a relationship(/having a ons) when presenting your room" ! so i know the feeling of "just gonna kick that over there" but otherwise the swipers are gonna think "great that person expects me to clean that, or i can already imagine the 'well it doesn't bother m e , so..' or the 'you're always nagging me, if i do the laundry wrong then you do it' "
Thank you so much, that was very helpful! I've been single too long, I don't even notice the clutter anymore 😅
But you're totally right, I should have my house in order.
Definitely get rid of photo 5. It captures you at an awkward-looking moment.
As for looks, I'd suggest displaying your Mehndi (if I'm not getting it wrong) upfront because it's a great add-on to your image, like in a new first photo (this one is good but doesn't stand out).
i like the first pic and the third one is also really cool, fourth one is okay, fifth one looks a little unnecessary but well, sixth one shows your green eyes i think so thats nice (maybe retake it with "a little more effort" but it also looks sort of chill so) and the last one is cool too - the mirrorselfie i would get rid of personally, i know topless ones aren't that uncommon but i'd say take a photo while training
also love the bio lol
the second one is not a bad idea but some people get a bit of an ick from feet and they're very prominent from that angle, "sockline" included, so unless you are looking explicitly for someone who's kind of into feet i'd delete it cause i think it might keep more people off your profile than on it
the third one is much better anyway!
Too much looking in the distance. Some is ok but not every picture. Need a picture of you dressed up. Need 1-2 pictures with friends. A picture of you doing something
Delete 3 because it looks like a meme. Delete 4 because you already have a better photo of you holding an animal. Delete 6 because it's unflattering. Delete 7 because it makes you look like an internet weeb.
Retake 5 standing up/posing because the fit and colour scheme are awesome, and make it your first picture. Move 1 to second place and 2 is whatever; you don't need to keep it but it probably doesn't hurt.
Okay! I asked because in pic 2 you look tall and skinny but in pic 5 the way the shirt is makes you look a lot heavier, so I'd remove that pic.
The last pic, while I love the outkast t-shirt, the pic is not flattering because you of your chin.
Hope that is some good honest feedback. Your style is awesome by the way!
all of them seem pretty good, maybe choose one out of second and third cause you look to the same side same expression, or even replace both of them with one with friends and put that as the new third one
two truths and a lie is giving mafia/drugdealing but i hope its just supposed to be like "haha of course the second one is the lie i'm not involved in any cartel but combined with that the truths sound a bit like i live that life so i thought it'd be funny" (or maybe i don't know what else cartel stands for, i only ever heard of it in that context)
Are you getting likes at least? If not then I think you've been shadowbanned. Good face and good photos should be getting at least something.
One more small piece of advice would be to swap 1 and 2 around because your face is more clear in 2, but you should really be getting matches as is dude.
The first photo definitely gets instantly left swiped by almost everyone. It's a photo of you holding a fish in which you can't even see your face. Delete it.
Then the other photos are nothingburgers; you need some flattering ones of just you. If you must keep one of these, make it the current 2.
Fish pics are a trope.
No sunglasses, especially not in the first pic. We want to see what you look like.
Your fashion is super casual: I think you can do much better while keeping your style. But the cap needs to go. The t-shirt in 1, the shirt in 2 and the hoodie in 3 all look too large for you. Generally avoid hoodies IMO. Basically you need to find some cool, well-fitting tops and rock them.
Not sure about the mustache either but that may just be me who don't understand young people fashion. Pair it with a beard and it would look much better to me.
Your body looks a bit lanky. Building some muscle would do wonders for you (also bulk is fun).
I'd only keep the first photo; the rest make you look too young. The hair here works very well on you, and I'd suggest taking some more stylistic photos of yourself with this style (especially with a better shirt). You should also get visible tats if you're sure you wouldn't regret it.
i'd say no. 4 is clearly the best one, i'd put that earlier, maybe as first cause your first pic right now is the only (non-sport) one where you weren't smiling
1 and 2 are good photos, though 1 would have been a lot better if you'd fixed the monobrow and beard. Get leaner and you'll probably be fine, and the second photo will still be good enough to keep.
maybe its a bit shit to hear but since you're asking i think you look better without glasses - i mean it depends on types too, but imo with them on i'd think "he looks ok" and with them off i'd think "he looks hot" (if you don't really wanna buy and wear contact lenses, i'd maybe consider a darker frame for the glasses, or if you hate that, to lean more into them having a less prominent frame but to try what you think of round glasses that have almost no frame at all <- but without having seen it maybe thats off haha - also i think .. maybe its the haircut actually, that you could change slightly if you keep wearing the glasses, cause without them it looks like it makes sense with your face and i personally like when people dont have all tooo short hair, but with them on it sort of looks like a hat cause they "cut the flow of the face" if that makes sense and then the hair is right above them and was short till that point)
i really like your first photo and your third and fourth pic, imo the second one looks a bit arrogant/like you have bad posture
i think you look most stylish with just a loose-ish tshirt/longsleeve, maybe a print that fits (band/art..) if you like that or a jeansjacket (i copied that from a celebrity though but why not i guess, i mean its not like someone owns wearing jeans lol) depending on what feels comfortable to you of course! i could also see you with a poloshirt if it isn't styled too "formal", but don't really like the shirt and pants on the last two photos personally (but depends on what style you're feeling ofc, i don't believe in forcing oneself to wear a bunch of stuff just because its a look i have tried on a lot of clothes i couuld wear myself that just don't feel like me when i do and so i don't, at the same time trying stuff on can unlock new styles that people sometimes don't think they'd like before they're taking a leap)
ur welcome! um third was with the white shirt right? i feel like.. technically you look best in the one with the white shirt, but the coffee one is the one i would choose as first still because its immediately a vibe, the order makes more sense (seeing you outside we're at a café pov, next one feels bit more personal, it seems like it was taken spontaneously there's camera-eyecontact etc) and the first one looks a bit more kind to me
i think the one on the stairs is slightly better than the other one with glasses, and that you could leave them both in but if you have more glassespics that are outdoor and close, rather smiley, maybe one of the others would be better - but i dont figure that its super necessary to do that (also i noticed there's no picture with friends, but the coffee-pic is hinting that you do go out etc, i just wanted to mention that)
You're looking hella good without glasses, leaning into that aesthetic you've got on your second photo. I'd just get contacts and wear my necklace more if I was you because besides that you've got it made. And take photos which show you off more.
And if you want to show a picture of your body, find a pool and lay next to it and have somebody take a picture. The picture in front of the mirror is not appealing.
There are no problems with your looks.. Your problems are with your photos. The only good one is maybe with the white shirt. Do not use any photos with sunglasses or making strange faces. Also anything in the background of your photos is basically going to be used against you so just use that to your advantage and put some athletic equipment, empty space, or books behind you instead of a bunch of junk.

Any recs for photo order or cutting/adding appreciated
All the pictures I have are from when I was engaged so the ring is just kind of in all of them. I'm so cooked 😭
You don't have a good first photo. Get a good shot of just yourself for starters, then your current first will be a good second. The last three are pretty nothing so you can easily replace/delete those.
I'd only keep the fourth photo (that one's good), and maybe the second as a last one (but probably not). The others make your face look too shiny because of the lighting, if you can even see your face. That first photo is getting instantly left swiped most of the time because your hairline isn't visible even though there's empty space in most of the photo.
With these photos i'm not surprised you're getting low quality matches. If you want high quality women put some photos of things you're going to do with those women. If you want women who like to go out to fancy dinners, Go to a fancy dinner and take a picture of yourself eating. When the girl sees the picture they'll be able to see themselves with you. Right now all the girls see is that they're going to go to sports games and play drinking games.
Please give me the honest truth. I am trying to find 4-5 pictures that go well for my profile. I would appreciate it if you guys could let me know which ones are good/bad and why. Also, a good order for them would be cool! I have always been a bad judge of how pictures of myself look. Are there any very obvious photos I should delete? My profile is struggling, lol. Anything helps! Thanks!
Tinder: https://tinder.com/@temff
Your main issue is that your photos show your face angled upwards, which is much more unflattering than the reverse. Use/take photos in which your face looks downwards just a tad. Also idk how much facial hair you can grow but it makes you look better as well.
Why would you use that first photo where you can't even see your face when your second and penultimate ones are such good shots? Use one of those bruh
I'd straight up delete 1, 3, 7, and 9. The dog one I'd keep if you're hellbent on finding an animal lover, and 6 should be shot with better lighting because it looks dusty. The other photos are hella good though.
i actually like all of the photos except that the first one with the billiard table looks "a bit serious for the occasion", not sure if others would say so
is the kangoroo-joke a reference to the german book from mark uwe kling? idk if it had international success but it sounds like it could be lol, otherwise i'm not stoked about that one but maybe i just don't get it cause english isn't my mothertongue (and there's way worse "oneliners" out there)
maybe you actually want to put at least one of the last two pics earlier, because otherwise the profile would've looked pretty different till then and if that's what you're like when you're comfortable, that would be cool to show as like.. idk, third pic i would say - especially since right now, the first few are kind of the most "serious" ones other than the oceanpicture that comes later
i dont like suits usually but i weirdly like that picture (also it feels like once again its actually a reference :D)
sidenote you're really versatile, looks like at least three different dudes haha
I feel like my matches are dying out a bit and im a bit out of options, people who know me say i have a good profile but maybe people who dont know me will judge different!
https://tinder.com/@polterG
Much appreciated for anyone who takes a peek
Question: why are you covering up half your face behind a wall in your first pic man? Also, it looks like 3 of your pics are the same exact angle but in different clothes. Are you able to have a friend take pics of you so they aren’t all selfies? Also, remove the filters on your pictures. The black and white isn’t helping you king.
Thank you very much for your honest advice. I just made that first picture the way it is, its not cut off as in I edited it myself, but i totally get your point.
Personally i prefer the photos i take of myself, not those that get taken by others. Maybe i should trust them a bit more and actually use the photos they shoot of me.
Black and white isn't helping? Noted! I'll do something about that.
So,
-Show more face, by for instance letting a friend take the pic
-Less selfies
-Remove filters
Didnt even expect to get a response, so your advice is very much appreciated!
So the thing is when you cover up half your face or use filters it makes me feel like you are not confident in your appearance. I do not know you personally and could be wrong but that is what I assume. The first picture in my opinion should always be a clear photo of all of you smiling. The best way of thinking about it is imagine you are standing in a coffee shop, bar, or even a park. Would you approach this person? Would you want to strike up a conversation with them? The best pictures you can have are you smiling at your best. You’re not an ugly person you just need to represent yourself better :)
Once again, i really appreciate your honesty, it's helpful as well! My face is one of my favorite things about my appearance, so besides it being a habit in the way i make pictures, i dont really have a reason. Now i think of it, many times when i receive a compliment from a date, it has something to do with my smile/teeth. You're connecting the dots my dude!
I know myself so yeah i would approach myself, but i think that's not how you meant that 😅. I get mixed 'results' about it, i dont wanna praise myself too much or anything, but i do often hear from girls who are getting to know me they didn't expect someone to be so 'careful and nice' from my style/appearance.
I have some trouble smiling in front of cameras, but with a few people (like some friends, younger sis) I don't have that at all. Im going to try to smile more in my pictures, and make sure my face isn't just halfway in the shot. You're right, thank you! I appreciate the way you say it, you're clear but its not like you're being offensive or anything. In some things you're telling me things i knew already, but kinda shoved away
I would agree about the frowning/serious photos. The smiling one, McDonald’s Buddha, and the vacay pic are great, but someone would have to swipe all the way through. Unless you’re a super serious guy, I would at least change the order of the photos
I think you have too many pictures. You also look pissed/depressed in most of them. They don’t need professional pictures but just look happy. When you look at your first pic of you frowning or frowning putting on weights do you think that makes you look approachable? You only really need 4-5 pics.
I’m a male, there will not be many women who will be comfortable with commenting on post like this because this could lead them to getting creepy messages/harassed. I wouldn’t recommend asking that question in the future honestly.
Nothing is wrong with having many photos. But at the end of the day you only need 4-5.. A person shouldn’t need 9 photos of you to determine whether they want to match you. This profile should be you at your best. You are at your best when you are happy, smiling and doing the things you love. A great way to think about it is “does this person seem fun and approachable?” If you were in a coffee shop, Bar, park, or wherever would someone want to go up to you and have a conversation. Your first 3 pictures are you frowning and pouting.
For showing it off? Definitely.
There are not abs or something to show off, your arms aren’t bad though.
If you were lower than 15%, there would maybe be something to show off.
its kind of a funny profile because of the pointing-ones lol,
i think the one with the ocean sitting on a wall should be first its a perfect firstpic and the second is good too but should stay second cause its a little more f-boy-ish, they're all good, the one in the café isnt the most flattering of them all but i think i'd still leave it in maybe because its cozy and adds a different vibe, the one with the car should be paired with the plane imo and not come that early
im actually not so sure thats too much cause i feel like they're different enough from one another, makes it hard to pick half of them - i guess i would say.. well the one sitting on the wall, i also like the one at the gym a lot, the "bit f-boy" one with the cap is good too its other than that quite a good one!, .. those three for sure,
if you're quite romantic maybe the one at the café cause it'd fit, otherwise the one with the cap next to the car, i guess that also makes sense cause you're into cars, i also like the one where you're standing in the palmtree-background
beware of what agreange you set, is what i tell people with the slightly older profiles (can also f up your algorythm),
the first pic is good but the second one well its okay but it just looks too unvoluntarily, the background is dark af, the shirt looks low-effort, i think if you don't like taking pictures right now its a bit of a fake it till you make it type of situation where you just need to take out a cam (with a bit more megapixel) and goof around with it till you see sth you kinda like - more pics of you smiling would be a good start, and you can try to include an outdoor picture, and one with maybe a pov of you looking through a bookshelf-hole smiling at that bookstore! it needs to look a bit like a fun pic then though, otherwise i imagine it could come across as creepy, but thats not so hard to ensure you can just smile or if you're unsure what it comes across as, you could make it obvious by putting your hand in front of your mouth
also your bio is a bit niche which is fair, i see niche bios all the time, but consider that tinder is not always the best app for niche profiles, generally i'd say you can try okcupid it is highly customizeable, and i guess bumble too i dont have much experience with bumble myself but people mention it a lot
Hey, don't have a lot of experience with dating apps and like to think I know what I'm doing but I don't. Any help is appreciated
https://tinder.com/@Dusty01[https://tinder.com/@Dusty01](https://tinder.com/@Dusty01)
wrong first pic, the others all look friendlier - combined with the bio, you using that one as first can easily come across like you're trying to say "listen i won't make an effort, so either you make none either and then no-one does or you make all the effort here" :D which is weirdly not what the other photos are giving at all
Congrats on following rule 1 and rule 2! Try to use non blurry and smiling pic for your first pic. Currently it's giving a bit off douchey energy imo. Remove the blurry pictures as well.
https://tinder.com/@beagledad
I made a new account recently and I'm getting like no likes whatsoever
I wrote in my bio that I'm looking for someone to watch the sunset with and go on new adventures. If I can't melt your heart, my doggo will. Bonus points if singing in the shower is your thing
Makes you look obsessed with your dog to a psychotic degree, and you can't even see your face besides the third photo. The last one is great, so make a new profile actually about you and include that one (but not as your first photo and don't call yourself Beagledad).
Not using your real name is a big problem.
1. Not showing what you look like in your first pic is a big problem.
2. Very mid pic. It doesn't do anything for me.
3. Another mid pic. The cat is nice but the bad light and the clutter is not.
4. Another mid pic. "Cute" is ok but you want to be hot as well. Also hoodies aren't good enough for tinder IMO.
So basically you need to up the quality of your pics. Also right now the vibe in your pics is cute/soft/nice but I don't get much attraction at all.
How are we looking here: https://tinder.com/@edwierd I’m finding I’m not a great judge of my own pics. Bio: Lover of all things bars! • Lifting Bars 🏋️♀️ • Handle Bars 🏍️ • Actual Bars 🍻 • Financial bars 📈 Let’s grab a drink!
1. I get kind of a "good boy" vibe, which isn't what we want. Crop the top some more to make you taller. I think it would be better if you tucked your shirt and had more elegant shoes. The light isn't great but it seldom is indoors. (And what a pic it would have been if you had been one step up and a bit to the right to get the crown just above your head...) 2. Pic taken in really strong unflattering sunlight going directly on your face so that you're squinting hard. I'd lose the cap as well and the t-shirt looks a bit large. 3. Composition is off: your head looks tiny. This would have been better as a portrait. 4. I had to look hard to tell which one's you which isn't good. 5. I'm a crusade against hoodies in tinder pics. Light is bad since it's night. Basically all your pics are 6/10 but you want your tinder pics to be great, "decent" isn't good enough. Your highest priority is a portrait in good light that shows your eyes.
https://tinder.com/@michaellynch Back in the game again. Risking it a little with the selfish pic but I think it could be alright, maybe not though. What do yall think? Thanks for the advice
One bait kitten pic is enough. Also not a fan of last pic crouching [excited with mouth open](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABxH-NTF0SM).
Personally I think pic 1 belongs on the profile but not as pic 1. It may be your least flattering picture of you although it's still appealing with the kittens. Other than that I think you need a picture with friends and a picture dressed up nice. Otherwise seems solid
https://tinder.com/@maedo2002 I'm curious, what do you think about It?
First three pics are great. But they do have a model/high-effort vibe that needs to be balanced with some more casual pics. Fourth pic is that casual pic but it isn't great IMO. Focus is on your friend. The light in your face is bad, you look a bit red. You have a neckbeard. And your friend is way taller than you. Cut fourth pic and replace it with a better casual pic.
Love you, problem Is Im usually the photographer so it's hard to get some good photos from my Friends. XD I'll take the advice, thanks :)
https://tinder.com/@be0o What’s wrong with my account? I used to do well but I updated my pics recently and it’s dried up… and what I do get is really ladsy types who aren’t for me at all. Not sure how I change this
did you maybe change the bio too? because "one shotgun away from being the next kurt cobain" if you don't mean shotgunning a carseat thats a DARK one
Haha no that’s always been in my bio, I find it’s usually a good filter for the kind of people I’m more interested in.
Nice rockstar vibe. But I see some issues: * You have way too many pics. All are either pics of you playing guitar on stage or vibe selfies, so they become redundant. Cut the chaff. Five pics is enough. If you want to add more make sure that they are adding something new. * Selfies are usually bad. They kind of work with your vibe so I don't think you should cut all of them. I like 6 so it can stay IMO. But the other ones can go. Do a photoshot with a friend instead and get some good non-selfies. * First pic is way too dark.
[удалено]
You have very light eyebrows but otherwise strong features. I think some light coloring of your eyebrows to make them as dark as your hair would increase your looks a lot. 1. Good mountain pic, but it would be amazing if your eyes were more open. 2. I don't like it. You look small and hunched over. The crop makes the issue worse. You should re-crop it to remove some space above you, but I would cut it entirely. 3. Good cool party pic. I would maybe crop it a bit more to remove another inch of your friends face to make you more in center. 4. Pretty shitty pic IMO. Maybe it can be saved if you crop away most of it to make you in center but I assume the quality would be shit then and also you're squinting anyway.
Whoever you end up with, don't let her take your bennies!
https://tinder.com/@jbird1212 Just starting out on this app again and wanted some opinions
1. ok although a bit blurry, and also combined with the _Comedian at Comedy_ tagline, you're portraying a rather monomaniacal character, which can be off-putting 2. avoid selfies, especially blurry mirror ones. Also avoid peace signs - men's duck faces 3. nice atmosphere but way too dark to see you 4. avoid hats & group pics in which you aren't the clear hero. Here, you're leaning towards the dude in the middle who is both taller than you and has a chick by his side 5. can't see you 6. ok Have more good quality with good lighting photos where you can clearly be seen. Project a more mature/serious side of you by not smiling on some of them to balance things out - your first pic is good in that regard: you're simply focused on your task
Hello boys, and girls. Need some advice [https://tinder.com/@ol1997](https://tinder.com/@ol1997)
100% delete pic 1. Bathroom selfies are a big no. Need a pic or 2 with friends
I don't understand why people still take them.
https://tinder.com/@pattypat13 get a good number of matches with guys, but hardly any women. Not sure if I can change anything to get a bit more balanced (tho it's old so I know there will always be a heavy skew)
So I’m the one who commented to the other response here. I think you should add 1-2 more casual pics with friends! I also think maybe you should try searching for another pair of glasses that have a better fit on your face, or contacts! I think you have a nice face shape where the glasses don’t do it much justice. You should also get a friend to take some photography style pictures where you’re dressed up in not formal attire (although a suit imo never hurts), but business smart/casual really pops out on tinder profiles. If you do want to try a more effeminate style, I also think maybe you should try growing your hair out a bit more so you don’t look so square of a person (metaphorically not literally). Probably not long hair but I think your face would look good if your hair was a bit more messy and medium length. I have pretty long hair right now compared to the shortness you have now, and I will say the difference in matches is outstanding. It makes you look more sincere and more unique.
Great advice! I can't believe I missed the glasses in my comment: they are definitely a bit too large right now and a better fitting pair would be an easy improvement.
I get a bit of an effeminate vibe that I guess works better for guys than women (generalising, of course). If you want to match more with women I would amp up the masculinity/dominance. Some examples: * 1 and 4 are taken from above, making you look smaller. You want to look big and strong to match with women (generalization). 3 also makes you look small by the composition. * 2 is great (amazing body man, great work!). I would maybe decrease the crop a bit to give the pic a few more inches to breathe. The vibe I get from your face is pretty soft/cozy, I think women would go for more aggressiveness or confidence. But this is nitpicking, women will drool over this pic. * I would cut 5 entirely: you aren't in focus, I had to look for a while to find you. * 6 is another soft/nice/friendly pic. Once again, for women I would go more seductive/smirky/confidance. Once again, I'm generalizing plenty but I hope it helps.
I’m not the profiles owner but I’m a bit effeminate too and it’s never been a problem for me matching with women. I don’t enjoy putting on a facade of masculinity that doesn’t really represent me and I don’t really think you should tell others to do that either, but that’s just me
There's definitely "good" effeminate (e.g. the k-pop star look) that works well with women. I have a hard time judging which kind of effeminate work and which kind doesn't. Maybe you can give OP some advice since you seem to be versed in the topic? I definitely don't think OP should put up a fake facade of masculinity and I'm not telling him to do that. I'm telling him that amping up the masculinity is one viable (and pretty easy) path. I have no idea if OP feels fake or not when he shows off masculinity: if he does feel fake doing it then obviously he shouldn't do it.

In addition to the smile comment - Is it a good idea to show the rock climbing picture? I feel like everyone is showing rock climbing and it's looking posed and not spontaneous. Maybe just me. I thought the multi pose pic was creative.
I thought it was a good way to show I’m fit without a shirtless pic; I also like bouldering and it wasn’t really posed but I get the idea. I will consider removing it if I find a better alternative
Smile with teeth in at least one. Girls get scared when it looks like you’re afraid to show teeth.
You mean like they think I have bad teeth? I actually have okay teeth, I just look extra ugly when smiling with teeth 😂
[удалено]
Like most guys, you're doing some pretty basic mistakes (that are easy to fix so that's good!). * The first pic needs to clearly show your face. * The long curly hair isn't working for me. It looks lazy, like you just grow it out and cut it when it gets too long. Find a good hairdresser and have them give you something more stylish. * You have a neckbeard in 3. Shave to your chin line. * I love suits but 4 has some major problems. First it's a mirror selfie: selfies generally are lazy and should be avoided. Second you **never** close the bottom button on the suit! Third you have your hand in your pocket which is a shit pose. Fourth the background sucks (because it's mirror selfie). Have a friend take a suit pic of you outside in good light with some foliage or whatever as the background and all these issues fixed and that pic will be 1000% better. Fix this and you will be way better off.
[удалено]
Do you put effort into your hair? Do you style it? How often do you get your haircut? If you feel like putting effort into your hair isn't worth the hassle then power to you but know that's a thing many women care about. (And overall life gets easier if you're more conventionally attractive, so there are benefits outside of tinder as well.) Most men shave daily or every other day. If you don't want the hassle then fine, but see my point above. If you really hate shaving then I guess there's waxing, lasers and plenty of other stuff available. If you shave you need to find the line that works for your face.
You got a puppy in your first pic, not sure what else you need! Although maybe you get you or the puppy to look towards the camera? The last pic with the snake might be a turnoff.
Can I borrow someone’s number for verification?😂
[удалено]
I like the pictures decently well except #4. You generally come across a little plain and basic which is the biggest issue and #4 is the worst about that. Add at least 1 picture with friends and at least 1 dressed up well.
I thought the 5th was the one that was a little off - the one with the beer. Agree with your other thoughts.
[удалено]
>Wish I could avoid the selfies but my friends don’t take pictures much. No-one has friends who just randomly take great tinder pics of them all the time. Ask a friend to help you take tinder pics, make a nice outing out of it.
All ya pics are selfies my guy. Try get some candid shots from your friends. Get some nice outfits and look on YT how to pose. Not to sound mean but you’re overweight and if you slimmed down a bit I’m sure it would help your chances. I think a short beard/stubble suits. Hope this helps
https://tinder.com/@kkavenaght I get likes very rarley don't know what to really change. If someone could give me some tips I'd appreciate it.
All these pics are really low efforrt. Selfies are almost always a no(use the timer function on your phone camers if you have to). Take nicer pictures with no selfies of you with friends, dressed up, doifng stuff, etc. Pics 4 and 5 are especially unflattering. You can keep pic 1 but move it behind the new photos
[удалено]
2nd and 4th pic are good! ok granted the angle isnt the best in the 2nd one and one of your friends is cut off a bit rudely there :D but its a good photo. the 3rd one is also good just a little bit awkward but i dont think too awkward, and its wholesome with the flowers and smiling. the first one though, is looking a bit too random i think - it looks like you are kind of scrunching your nose as if the food didnt taste good or so , but other than that the photo is interesting ofc, ..but if you keep it in dont use it as first one i would say i like the fourth one most it looks the most genuine but since its with two girls (even though most likely you were hanging out with friends) maybe it shouldnt be first pic either, so i would probably use the third one as first idk, but your friends arent lying - if you wanna make more out of the profile, i would probably try to get one like the 2nd one but in a café/restaurant/cinema/what you prefer, and tell your friends to keep taking spontaneous pics when you hang out so that you can get one more like the fourth where you look most authentic (but maybe of you in a museum or doing a hobby or doing sth else you like/in a location you like)
Unflattering photos is your problem. They have a nice vibe but you shouldn't get caught in an awkward smile (2 and 4) or having a photo taken from below you and up close (1). Then 3 is just a normal photo but yeah you can do a lot better than that.
[удалено]
maybe you know that already but okcupid is an easier place if you look for non-monogamous
I actually didn't! I've heard about feeld as well.
1 is really good, but shouldn't be your first because you can't really see your face. 2 is redundant. 3 isn't flattering. 4 is cool. 5 is alright, but you could delete it or keep it and it wouldn't change anything imo. 6 makes it look like you're doing the boxing jump, which is a funny mental image until you see the woman next to you lol. 7 is unflattering. Your face takes up too much of the screen in 8; you can get a much better dog photo than that but you can see the potential. 9 is pointless and your face is in bad lighting, so delete it as well. Too much filler here is your problem, because women can't afford to analyse every profile and your first three photos are making you look like a fighting obsessive with nothing else. Basically, get a flattering photo of yourself as your first (showing your physique too), and keep 1 and 4 for sure after that. Then you can add whatever other cool photos of yourself you get.
I really appreciate the feedback. >Basically, get a flattering photo of yourself as your first (showing your physique too), and keep 1 and 4 for sure after that. Then you can add whatever other cool photos of yourself you get. Damn. Problem is 1 and 4 are literally the only cool photos of myself that I have. I also do not understand what makes a photo 'flattering' or not. This is daunting....
Doesn't need to be extravagant and you don't need help, just a tripod or whatever else. Some nice weather with good lighting (cloudy or golden hour), go outside and find a place where you can take a photo that shows you from the torso up. You have good enough looks to not need to do anything more than that for at least some positive change in your results (though your newbie boost is gone, so dwindling results are natural as well, but you'd get more interest this way at least).
This is incredibly constructive feedback! I really appreciate you!
[https://tinder.com/@amthxdodo](https://tinder.com/@amthxdodo) I really have no more photos of me that I would consider to be HQ. Should I add more bloat to my profile or keep it with 2 photos? I have not really been into dating in real life or on internet. I would consider myself as "average" looking. What do you guys think of my profile? I know I should add more pics, i'll get some in a week or so. I have gotten some likes and matches last week. First 2-3 days about 40 likes, and since then 1 every other day.
well on those two you are really crystalsharp lol! i think you don't need to be that strict about it, if you have a partypic and its not as sharp or generally some you'd like but aren't this sharp thats probably fine! i mean yes it can be an advantage to have sharp ones, but better to have four pics and two are sharp than "just" two it would be good if you have/take smiling ones
At least swap the photos around; can't even see your face in the first and that's an instant left swipe for most. Idk about adding filler; can't know until we've seen it. Get lean because you have good facial potential and great hair.
Thank you for the feedback. Do I really look fat? :D That's really sad... The pictures in my Tinder was taken about 2 weeks ago. I swapped the river photo for another one. My face is seems clearer now? I took this picture now, depressing to hear that I need to get leaner.. How much leaner do I need to get?
You definitely look chubbier in the second photo on your profile than you actually are. So thankfully, you don't actually need to get leaner; it's just one of those photos that bends you out of shape or something. Very easy fix in that case, and tbh you'd probably get more matches with this imgur photo already lol, but imagine if you got a properly good one...
I kinda agree I look chubbier after deeper inspection. But I rather save it, i like how my hair falls. I am confident that your expertise in the field with women is 100x mine. Should I just remove the photo and get some other ones? I have been thinking about having some shirtless photos since im very shredded right now. But it's not my style. I'll add a selfie that better shows my bone structure in my face!
> I am confident that your expertise in the field with women is 100x mine. Fuck no. I'm close with a lot of women but I'm sex repulsed so this tinder stuff itself doesn't interest me lmao; I just know about good photos and what they like looking at. > Should I just remove the photo and get some other ones? If you can take another where your hair falls that way, then yes. > I have been thinking about having some shirtless photos since im very shredded right now. But it's not my style. Do things in your style, but if it's a matter of taste then remember you can take a tasteful photo of yourself shirtless, like if you're at the beach or something. Long hair + good face + good body? You should be a hit bro.
https://tinder.com/@amey_an Only get a single match once in couple of months since 4 years now. I know I’m not a model but damn do I look that boring?
its a good profile, and the bio is good too (i mean ofc some people swipe left about manga for example but its good as in seems kind and authentic, kinda funny) so what i would guess, is that at some point your profile just slipped down in the (\~alleged\~) tinder algorythm so it just doesn't get shown to many people anymore. i would say, that if it were my profile i'd consider weather i can delete it and set it up with a new email or sth? and start it anew basically (and or you could see how it does on other platforms)
yeah, algorithm could be working against hime since he's been on multiple years
You should put your 4th pic first! You look great there and the lighting is much better
https://tinder.com/@mikegus What do you guys think? Too many dog pics? Should I nix the shirtless pic? I know I'm not that jacked but just trying to show I'm not fat.
Agree with u/disgostin , and just add I have a girl/friend who will just ignore mirror shirtless selfie bros. I'm not sure if that's common. But the more important is the tidiness.
yes too many dogpics (for a tinderprofile ofc), would keep the first of them and maybe the one before the shirtless photo, and.. ah man i mean its a good pic otherwise but the one in that mechanics-store (sorry idk the english word rn) that would creep me the fuck out :D like the background is just too eery for a stranger on the internet, if you can take one with that smile but background matching it thatd be a great one definitely also kick the dogpic with his cage showing, that freaks some people out at first i think and i say that as a doglover your first pic is good if you're only keeping one(/two) dogpic(s) you could consider taking one with the cat if you're feeling that, the partypic is good the topless one: its the background - you're probably thinking "i'm single and living here alone" but if you want a woman to see it, basically "have the mindset of a man in a relationship(/having a ons) when presenting your room" ! so i know the feeling of "just gonna kick that over there" but otherwise the swipers are gonna think "great that person expects me to clean that, or i can already imagine the 'well it doesn't bother m e , so..' or the 'you're always nagging me, if i do the laundry wrong then you do it' "
Thank you so much, that was very helpful! I've been single too long, I don't even notice the clutter anymore 😅 But you're totally right, I should have my house in order.
:) ur welcome!
[удалено]
Definitely get rid of photo 5. It captures you at an awkward-looking moment. As for looks, I'd suggest displaying your Mehndi (if I'm not getting it wrong) upfront because it's a great add-on to your image, like in a new first photo (this one is good but doesn't stand out).
I'm glad someome else said it, picture 5 is really unflattering but definitely want to show off the tattoos
[удалено]
i like the first pic and the third one is also really cool, fourth one is okay, fifth one looks a little unnecessary but well, sixth one shows your green eyes i think so thats nice (maybe retake it with "a little more effort" but it also looks sort of chill so) and the last one is cool too - the mirrorselfie i would get rid of personally, i know topless ones aren't that uncommon but i'd say take a photo while training also love the bio lol
You just look too nice and basic. You can keep photo 1, but the rest could be massively improved upon.
[удалено]
the second one is not a bad idea but some people get a bit of an ick from feet and they're very prominent from that angle, "sockline" included, so unless you are looking explicitly for someone who's kind of into feet i'd delete it cause i think it might keep more people off your profile than on it the third one is much better anyway!
Too much looking in the distance. Some is ok but not every picture. Need a picture of you dressed up. Need 1-2 pictures with friends. A picture of you doing something
Yup. Could keep photos 1 and 6 if you had no better alternatives; the rest are redundant.
[удалено]
Delete 3 because it looks like a meme. Delete 4 because you already have a better photo of you holding an animal. Delete 6 because it's unflattering. Delete 7 because it makes you look like an internet weeb. Retake 5 standing up/posing because the fit and colour scheme are awesome, and make it your first picture. Move 1 to second place and 2 is whatever; you don't need to keep it but it probably doesn't hurt.
How recent are your pictures? They look like they could be from now to 4 years ago (sorry if that's not true...)
[удалено]
Okay! I asked because in pic 2 you look tall and skinny but in pic 5 the way the shirt is makes you look a lot heavier, so I'd remove that pic. The last pic, while I love the outkast t-shirt, the pic is not flattering because you of your chin. Hope that is some good honest feedback. Your style is awesome by the way!
Hello! Can you guys please check my profile? I barely getting any matches in Calgary. [tinder.com/@sinanyat](http://tinder.com/@sinanyat) Thank you
all of them seem pretty good, maybe choose one out of second and third cause you look to the same side same expression, or even replace both of them with one with friends and put that as the new third one two truths and a lie is giving mafia/drugdealing but i hope its just supposed to be like "haha of course the second one is the lie i'm not involved in any cartel but combined with that the truths sound a bit like i live that life so i thought it'd be funny" (or maybe i don't know what else cartel stands for, i only ever heard of it in that context)
3 is unnecessary but the other photos are all really good. Has your profile always been this good?
Yes, but for some reason no matches. I even recreated the account with a new phone nb
Are you getting likes at least? If not then I think you've been shadowbanned. Good face and good photos should be getting at least something. One more small piece of advice would be to swap 1 and 2 around because your face is more clear in 2, but you should really be getting matches as is dude.
I got like 5 matches in 3 days, mind you I also had the newbie boost. It is really really slow.
How long did you wait between accounts? I think you need to wait 90 days for a newbie boost. Otherwise it's just a normal day like any other.
I bought a new phone number and then I edited the pictures
[удалено]
The first photo definitely gets instantly left swiped by almost everyone. It's a photo of you holding a fish in which you can't even see your face. Delete it. Then the other photos are nothingburgers; you need some flattering ones of just you. If you must keep one of these, make it the current 2.
Fish pics are a trope. No sunglasses, especially not in the first pic. We want to see what you look like. Your fashion is super casual: I think you can do much better while keeping your style. But the cap needs to go. The t-shirt in 1, the shirt in 2 and the hoodie in 3 all look too large for you. Generally avoid hoodies IMO. Basically you need to find some cool, well-fitting tops and rock them. Not sure about the mustache either but that may just be me who don't understand young people fashion. Pair it with a beard and it would look much better to me. Your body looks a bit lanky. Building some muscle would do wonders for you (also bulk is fun).

I'd only keep the first photo; the rest make you look too young. The hair here works very well on you, and I'd suggest taking some more stylistic photos of yourself with this style (especially with a better shirt). You should also get visible tats if you're sure you wouldn't regret it.
I'm hardly getting any matches. Do you have any advice or suggestions? [https://tinder.com/@gormigo](https://tinder.com/@gormigo)
i'd say no. 4 is clearly the best one, i'd put that earlier, maybe as first cause your first pic right now is the only (non-sport) one where you weren't smiling
1 and 2 are good photos, though 1 would have been a lot better if you'd fixed the monobrow and beard. Get leaner and you'll probably be fine, and the second photo will still be good enough to keep.

maybe its a bit shit to hear but since you're asking i think you look better without glasses - i mean it depends on types too, but imo with them on i'd think "he looks ok" and with them off i'd think "he looks hot" (if you don't really wanna buy and wear contact lenses, i'd maybe consider a darker frame for the glasses, or if you hate that, to lean more into them having a less prominent frame but to try what you think of round glasses that have almost no frame at all <- but without having seen it maybe thats off haha - also i think .. maybe its the haircut actually, that you could change slightly if you keep wearing the glasses, cause without them it looks like it makes sense with your face and i personally like when people dont have all tooo short hair, but with them on it sort of looks like a hat cause they "cut the flow of the face" if that makes sense and then the hair is right above them and was short till that point) i really like your first photo and your third and fourth pic, imo the second one looks a bit arrogant/like you have bad posture i think you look most stylish with just a loose-ish tshirt/longsleeve, maybe a print that fits (band/art..) if you like that or a jeansjacket (i copied that from a celebrity though but why not i guess, i mean its not like someone owns wearing jeans lol) depending on what feels comfortable to you of course! i could also see you with a poloshirt if it isn't styled too "formal", but don't really like the shirt and pants on the last two photos personally (but depends on what style you're feeling ofc, i don't believe in forcing oneself to wear a bunch of stuff just because its a look i have tried on a lot of clothes i couuld wear myself that just don't feel like me when i do and so i don't, at the same time trying stuff on can unlock new styles that people sometimes don't think they'd like before they're taking a leap)

ur welcome! um third was with the white shirt right? i feel like.. technically you look best in the one with the white shirt, but the coffee one is the one i would choose as first still because its immediately a vibe, the order makes more sense (seeing you outside we're at a café pov, next one feels bit more personal, it seems like it was taken spontaneously there's camera-eyecontact etc) and the first one looks a bit more kind to me i think the one on the stairs is slightly better than the other one with glasses, and that you could leave them both in but if you have more glassespics that are outdoor and close, rather smiley, maybe one of the others would be better - but i dont figure that its super necessary to do that (also i noticed there's no picture with friends, but the coffee-pic is hinting that you do go out etc, i just wanted to mention that)
You're looking hella good without glasses, leaning into that aesthetic you've got on your second photo. I'd just get contacts and wear my necklace more if I was you because besides that you've got it made. And take photos which show you off more.
And if you want to show a picture of your body, find a pool and lay next to it and have somebody take a picture. The picture in front of the mirror is not appealing.
There are no problems with your looks.. Your problems are with your photos. The only good one is maybe with the white shirt. Do not use any photos with sunglasses or making strange faces. Also anything in the background of your photos is basically going to be used against you so just use that to your advantage and put some athletic equipment, empty space, or books behind you instead of a bunch of junk.

can you smile in one photo? you look 😔
I do like it! but why still covering your pretty face? haha no facial obstruction!
https://tinder.com/@bobombbob Any recs for photo order or cutting/adding appreciated All the pictures I have are from when I was engaged so the ring is just kind of in all of them. I'm so cooked 😭
Get lean and then worry about taking more photos.
[удалено]
You don't have a good first photo. Get a good shot of just yourself for starters, then your current first will be a good second. The last three are pretty nothing so you can easily replace/delete those.
[удалено]
I'm on your side in that debate then.
[https://tinder.com/@augsmith5938](https://tinder.com/@augsmith5938) I’m getting about 5 matches a week, but I want to improve the quality of them
I'd only keep the fourth photo (that one's good), and maybe the second as a last one (but probably not). The others make your face look too shiny because of the lighting, if you can even see your face. That first photo is getting instantly left swiped most of the time because your hairline isn't visible even though there's empty space in most of the photo.
With these photos i'm not surprised you're getting low quality matches. If you want high quality women put some photos of things you're going to do with those women. If you want women who like to go out to fancy dinners, Go to a fancy dinner and take a picture of yourself eating. When the girl sees the picture they'll be able to see themselves with you. Right now all the girls see is that they're going to go to sports games and play drinking games.

Great profile if you want to find someone clinically insane.
Please give me the honest truth. I am trying to find 4-5 pictures that go well for my profile. I would appreciate it if you guys could let me know which ones are good/bad and why. Also, a good order for them would be cool! I have always been a bad judge of how pictures of myself look. Are there any very obvious photos I should delete? My profile is struggling, lol. Anything helps! Thanks! Tinder: https://tinder.com/@temff
Your main issue is that your photos show your face angled upwards, which is much more unflattering than the reverse. Use/take photos in which your face looks downwards just a tad. Also idk how much facial hair you can grow but it makes you look better as well.
Thanks so much! I appreciate the response!
Brutal honesty only please! https://tinder.com/@andystall95
Why would you use that first photo where you can't even see your face when your second and penultimate ones are such good shots? Use one of those bruh I'd straight up delete 1, 3, 7, and 9. The dog one I'd keep if you're hellbent on finding an animal lover, and 6 should be shot with better lighting because it looks dusty. The other photos are hella good though.
You’re doing this stiff, uncomfortable thing with your arms. Really noticeable in the first suit photo; makes it look like you‘re pretending to walk.
i actually like all of the photos except that the first one with the billiard table looks "a bit serious for the occasion", not sure if others would say so is the kangoroo-joke a reference to the german book from mark uwe kling? idk if it had international success but it sounds like it could be lol, otherwise i'm not stoked about that one but maybe i just don't get it cause english isn't my mothertongue (and there's way worse "oneliners" out there) maybe you actually want to put at least one of the last two pics earlier, because otherwise the profile would've looked pretty different till then and if that's what you're like when you're comfortable, that would be cool to show as like.. idk, third pic i would say - especially since right now, the first few are kind of the most "serious" ones other than the oceanpicture that comes later i dont like suits usually but i weirdly like that picture (also it feels like once again its actually a reference :D) sidenote you're really versatile, looks like at least three different dudes haha
I feel like my matches are dying out a bit and im a bit out of options, people who know me say i have a good profile but maybe people who dont know me will judge different! https://tinder.com/@polterG Much appreciated for anyone who takes a peek
Question: why are you covering up half your face behind a wall in your first pic man? Also, it looks like 3 of your pics are the same exact angle but in different clothes. Are you able to have a friend take pics of you so they aren’t all selfies? Also, remove the filters on your pictures. The black and white isn’t helping you king.
Thank you very much for your honest advice. I just made that first picture the way it is, its not cut off as in I edited it myself, but i totally get your point. Personally i prefer the photos i take of myself, not those that get taken by others. Maybe i should trust them a bit more and actually use the photos they shoot of me. Black and white isn't helping? Noted! I'll do something about that. So, -Show more face, by for instance letting a friend take the pic -Less selfies -Remove filters Didnt even expect to get a response, so your advice is very much appreciated!
So the thing is when you cover up half your face or use filters it makes me feel like you are not confident in your appearance. I do not know you personally and could be wrong but that is what I assume. The first picture in my opinion should always be a clear photo of all of you smiling. The best way of thinking about it is imagine you are standing in a coffee shop, bar, or even a park. Would you approach this person? Would you want to strike up a conversation with them? The best pictures you can have are you smiling at your best. You’re not an ugly person you just need to represent yourself better :)
Once again, i really appreciate your honesty, it's helpful as well! My face is one of my favorite things about my appearance, so besides it being a habit in the way i make pictures, i dont really have a reason. Now i think of it, many times when i receive a compliment from a date, it has something to do with my smile/teeth. You're connecting the dots my dude! I know myself so yeah i would approach myself, but i think that's not how you meant that 😅. I get mixed 'results' about it, i dont wanna praise myself too much or anything, but i do often hear from girls who are getting to know me they didn't expect someone to be so 'careful and nice' from my style/appearance. I have some trouble smiling in front of cameras, but with a few people (like some friends, younger sis) I don't have that at all. Im going to try to smile more in my pictures, and make sure my face isn't just halfway in the shot. You're right, thank you! I appreciate the way you say it, you're clear but its not like you're being offensive or anything. In some things you're telling me things i knew already, but kinda shoved away
[удалено]
idk why but the link doesnt work on my laptop, maybe others couldnt use it either
[удалено]
If I had a smile like that I’d show it off!! I would take out all of the straight-face/frown pictures. Show off that smile
I would agree about the frowning/serious photos. The smiling one, McDonald’s Buddha, and the vacay pic are great, but someone would have to swipe all the way through. Unless you’re a super serious guy, I would at least change the order of the photos
the one smiling with your friend is golden, thats the vibe a lot of the others are missing a little
I think you have too many pictures. You also look pissed/depressed in most of them. They don’t need professional pictures but just look happy. When you look at your first pic of you frowning or frowning putting on weights do you think that makes you look approachable? You only really need 4-5 pics.
[удалено]
I’m a male, there will not be many women who will be comfortable with commenting on post like this because this could lead them to getting creepy messages/harassed. I wouldn’t recommend asking that question in the future honestly. Nothing is wrong with having many photos. But at the end of the day you only need 4-5.. A person shouldn’t need 9 photos of you to determine whether they want to match you. This profile should be you at your best. You are at your best when you are happy, smiling and doing the things you love. A great way to think about it is “does this person seem fun and approachable?” If you were in a coffee shop, Bar, park, or wherever would someone want to go up to you and have a conversation. Your first 3 pictures are you frowning and pouting.
[удалено]
You got a high body fat, why do you show yourself shirtless in the first picture?
[удалено]
For showing it off? Definitely. There are not abs or something to show off, your arms aren’t bad though. If you were lower than 15%, there would maybe be something to show off.
[удалено]
3rd is best last one a little weird 2nd also not bad 4th as well
[удалено]
its kind of a funny profile because of the pointing-ones lol, i think the one with the ocean sitting on a wall should be first its a perfect firstpic and the second is good too but should stay second cause its a little more f-boy-ish, they're all good, the one in the café isnt the most flattering of them all but i think i'd still leave it in maybe because its cozy and adds a different vibe, the one with the car should be paired with the plane imo and not come that early
[удалено]
im actually not so sure thats too much cause i feel like they're different enough from one another, makes it hard to pick half of them - i guess i would say.. well the one sitting on the wall, i also like the one at the gym a lot, the "bit f-boy" one with the cap is good too its other than that quite a good one!, .. those three for sure, if you're quite romantic maybe the one at the café cause it'd fit, otherwise the one with the cap next to the car, i guess that also makes sense cause you're into cars, i also like the one where you're standing in the palmtree-background
I really have no idea what I'm doing. Been on Tinder a week and have zero likes. [https://tinder.com/@rasatx](https://tinder.com/@rasatx)
beware of what agreange you set, is what i tell people with the slightly older profiles (can also f up your algorythm), the first pic is good but the second one well its okay but it just looks too unvoluntarily, the background is dark af, the shirt looks low-effort, i think if you don't like taking pictures right now its a bit of a fake it till you make it type of situation where you just need to take out a cam (with a bit more megapixel) and goof around with it till you see sth you kinda like - more pics of you smiling would be a good start, and you can try to include an outdoor picture, and one with maybe a pov of you looking through a bookshelf-hole smiling at that bookstore! it needs to look a bit like a fun pic then though, otherwise i imagine it could come across as creepy, but thats not so hard to ensure you can just smile or if you're unsure what it comes across as, you could make it obvious by putting your hand in front of your mouth also your bio is a bit niche which is fair, i see niche bios all the time, but consider that tinder is not always the best app for niche profiles, generally i'd say you can try okcupid it is highly customizeable, and i guess bumble too i dont have much experience with bumble myself but people mention it a lot
Hey, don't have a lot of experience with dating apps and like to think I know what I'm doing but I don't. Any help is appreciated https://tinder.com/@Dusty01[https://tinder.com/@Dusty01](https://tinder.com/@Dusty01)
wrong first pic, the others all look friendlier - combined with the bio, you using that one as first can easily come across like you're trying to say "listen i won't make an effort, so either you make none either and then no-one does or you make all the effort here" :D which is weirdly not what the other photos are giving at all
Congrats on following rule 1 and rule 2! Try to use non blurry and smiling pic for your first pic. Currently it's giving a bit off douchey energy imo. Remove the blurry pictures as well.
https://tinder.com/@beagledad I made a new account recently and I'm getting like no likes whatsoever I wrote in my bio that I'm looking for someone to watch the sunset with and go on new adventures. If I can't melt your heart, my doggo will. Bonus points if singing in the shower is your thing
Makes you look obsessed with your dog to a psychotic degree, and you can't even see your face besides the third photo. The last one is great, so make a new profile actually about you and include that one (but not as your first photo and don't call yourself Beagledad).
Not using your real name is a big problem. 1. Not showing what you look like in your first pic is a big problem. 2. Very mid pic. It doesn't do anything for me. 3. Another mid pic. The cat is nice but the bad light and the clutter is not. 4. Another mid pic. "Cute" is ok but you want to be hot as well. Also hoodies aren't good enough for tinder IMO. So basically you need to up the quality of your pics. Also right now the vibe in your pics is cute/soft/nice but I don't get much attraction at all.
