I have seen some very badly photo-shopped pics on here, and some very good ones. If the person is never going to meet then go for it. Otherwise they're just going to be a disappointment. |

Virtually any photo's going to need colour balance and contrast adjusting. Apart from that, I agree that buggering about with ones physog is false advertising and should result in the perpetrator being shot. Slowly and painfully. |

Filters sort it out when the lighting is shite etc. Cant say any one I've met has been disappointed. My pics are an accurate representation. If not worse than what I look like in real life lol |

"I will never alter body shape or image. but loose dodgy backgrounds and add a decent twist to pic."
 No-one has ever been disappointed that I'm not actually black and white in real life and there are plenty of candid snaps in my friends folder. Oh, and I blur my tattoos out in public pics. I do mention the fact I have them in my profile though but I'm not going to put them up for everyone to see. |

I like filters because they offer range and mood. As for the others that you mention, I think it's fairly easy to tell in a pic when people are seriously altering things and I just don't message those people. |

I filter, crop, take photos in flattering lighting and from good angles. The intention is not to deceive anyone, it's to have nice photos. I meet people socially first anyway so if they were horrified by the real me on arrival then they have an easy get out. I don't alter my body shape, apart from anything else I don't know how to do it. |

Mine are mostly colour and cropped. Having seen some good B&W ones I've added a couple.
My face pic is B&W as it's the only one I've ever taken that didn't then involve 15 retakes before I thought 'sod it that will do' |

I do wonder if I look like my photos, in the flesh. I can't tell by looking at them and looking in the mirror. I think some people paint a totally different picture of what you will look like in person, and are sorely disappointed. |

That's one of the things that prevents me from arranging a meet. I don't want to see their faces drop. |

I give a detailed description of my flab and wrinkly face and give them the option of bolting, right up to the point of my knickers coming off. Only one person turned the car around and he wasn't impressed with my candidness about the numbers I have met  |

Just where I need to be. |
I crop my pictures as I like detail. I don't filter my natural colours anymore just crop and put up. I like black and white on some pictures. I keep mine recent and don't use clarity, I like to own my bumps |

I have only ever cropped my pics...And hide my wobbly bits with clothing...but always warn of such things before ever meeting someone...photoshopping can only surely be gotten away with if someone never meets?!   |

Never used photoshop, 100% natural with an iPhone. You can clearly see those where the faces have been altered to appear flawless, almost a cartoon effect, entirety up to them, we're all having fab fun. |

The occasional filter but that's all.
Then again, isn't makeup and flattering 'sexy angles' a filter? We all advertise to show off our most appealing selves. If I showed pure reality (bad skin, big tummy) I'd never get a meet.

I filter the life out of my photos. I breathe in and I try for flattering angles. I have never yet had any one run a mile when they meet me. I'm not going to put up a photo that I think I look awful in.
If people want to get creative with their photos I wish them well. Some on this site could really do with learning to crop out messy backgrounds or thinking before they post some of their photos! I've seen many things I wish I hadn't over the years.

I'm with you on this, I'm all about flattering angles and pretty filters. I think my pics give a clear depiction of my body though, so it's not like I'm hiding anything.
And for the record, your pics are excellent. I always appreciate when someone makes an effort to take decent pics |

I think it's fair enough that most of us post up flattering pics, we are, after all, supposed to be tempting prospective meets. However, it's surely counter productive to actually *alter* what we look like because sooner or later truth will out - if you're serious about meeting. I've put black and white filters on some of mine, added a vignette, cropped others ... but have never smoothed out wrinkles or stretchmarks, or slimmed/enlarged any part(s) of me ... don't have fancy editing software anyway.
I'd far rather someone was attracted to the real me and consequently be able to enjoy a meet honestly rather than be (rightly) called out for creating a completely false impression - or have to meet in pitch darkness ... |

Up until now all ours have been done with our phones and if it makes them better they are cropped, tinted, No re-imaging malarky though.
Just got a Samsung Galaxy camera so although the subject matter will be the same hopefully the quality of the pics will improve.

Yeah your pics are always cool and interesting. It gives a different twist to the usual images here. I like to take selfies from flattering angles of myself and use filters to enhance the images, but they are never *photo shopped* to alter my body size.
That would be false advertising in my humble opinion. |

"Is wearing makeup false advertising too?
Yes, that's why I insist on swimming pool socials  "
I have no issue with people seeing me without my makeup on. A swimming pool social is a great idea! |

I use filters, colours and shading to try to anonymise the background in my pics but apart from that it is simply me. Surely it's pretty pointless morphing your face etc if you're going to meet! |

I sometimes use a filter or crop off my head but have never altered my body although I do only post photos with good angles so do worry I don't look like my photos and will scare a man off when I meet him    |

Why? You obviously like them or you wouldn't have them. |

Use a very low velocity rifle. |

Why? Because I have common sense. I have no inclination to meet every single person who views my profile or have some stranger come up to me randomly in the street, when I'm out with friends and family or at work because they've recognised me from my tattoos. It's the same reason I haven't got a face pic public. I only share identifiable details with those I might actually meet. |

I'm exactly the same. I can't believe anyone would even question why you'd do this |

Interesting. I've had my photo on loads of websites over the years and never once been approached by a random stranger. I wonder what I'm doing wrong? |

All of ours are 'photoshopped' in one form or another but only because I use Photoshop as a matter of course. No body shapes or faces are changed.
Very few people are able to change body shapes well, anyway.
Alternatively, very few images are 'right' straight out of the camera. |

None of our photos are photo shopped, not even contrast etc. Which sadly makes me one of the few fellas on here without a six pack, however I still think simmie (my partner) as having a great body (had to add that. Fire getting in trouble) |
