How about mine? :P Is mine creative enough to pass?

Lush is a secret side of me that not many people in my life know about. I also like to keep the mystery which is why I don't put up any real pics. It doesn't make me untrustworthy, it just makes me feel safer. I hate guys who keep asking me for Pics and such so I don't put any up, cause as soon as I put anything even slightly real for others to see, they pressure me into posting more and more. And if I refuse they get all jerk like and abuse me. I agree that people should steer clear of the default, but they don't have to change it completely, just add a twist to it. Something that people can identify as you, as an individual and not just another random.

I'm the one who mentioned creativity obviously... You say red and white's don't make it for you, mine's not red and white.

Well don't I look stupid... I thought you were asking ME if it was creative enough to pass MY intensive screening process. But since I didn't say creativity was essential you couldn't have been... jumped the gun on that one! For me it's about sticking out among the crowd. It could be a picture of 'shit on a stick', a black square, or one of the handy lush avatars to choose from. Just something.....ANYTHING.

I use my real pic and no one in my life knows about lush. I think people don't have pics for different reasons.
Some aren't comfortable in their own skin and others don't want to risk being recognized.
I think it's sad that some people feel they would be unfairly judged if they included a real picture of themselves.

With services like Tineye.com you can already find derivative/related images from the one you enter.
And image recognition is getting better and better, so I guess it won't take many years anymore before we can search all kinds of pictures of people based on a single portret of them. When that's possible it won't be long before people you know will find your Lush account.
For me that's the reason I have a non-recognizable avatar and why I don't post that many pictures of myself anywhere on the web.

Sometimes I think it is because the person is to lazy to look for an image or to embarrassed to be known on lush.

I picked my avatar because I like the movie "Quills" and think Geoffery Rush and Kate Winslet had great chemristy on screen as De Sade and Madilene. As for pictures of myself I live in a small community and I don't want people to know I am on here.

Other pics I have on my file are of images of people I like.

Two things come to mind -either they are new and they don't know how, or they are lazy and just don't want to go to the trouble. I don't believe the privacy thing has anything to do with it. I have lots of pics on My page and there isn't one of Me. I have to protect Myself due to work and yet I have My favorite tumblr and Internet pics on My page. Who says the pics on your page HAVE to be of you? Now don't go lie about it and say they are you, but you don't have to put your pic on here.

My avatar is a sleepy tiger, because I like tigers. I also have pictures on my profile, but most of them can only be seen by friends, i.e. the most explicit ones - some of me, but mostly images that I find sexually arousing, generally from internet sites to which I have subscribed, and which other Lush members might also enjoy. As far as possible I only post explicit images on friends' walls if they are happy about it, and not at all if they have made it plain that they do not want explicit posts on their profile page.

I think it's up to the person....as long as they take the time to at least fill out a good, detailed profile, I'm fine.

I don't have a problem with people not having pics on their profile. I kind of prefer not to know what the person on the other side of the screen looks like...just give me a brief description of yourself and I am usually very happy to fantasize about chatting with Sean Connery or Johnny Depp or Robert Downey Jr.! I tend in real life to not really notice what the person looks like on the outside, but recognize their hearts. I have been given real pics of people here and I can honestly say that some were a pleasant surprise to put a face with their words.

I do prefer to be able to read their bio rather than to see pics of them....in case time is a factor and anyone wondered about that...lol

It's up to the person to choose to reveal themselves or not. One cool thing is that if you do meet somebody and become friends, that friendship can be based on something deeper than superficial physical attributes. Personality, humor, intelligence, and confidence are extremely sexy. I've met individuals with the physical but lacking the other... meh... not so much. Nice to look at the pics, but this is a chat site. Personality or the lack of is exposed pretty quickly.

Am I even sure that the pics they are showing are really them? Don't know. They can't lie about their personality though. That's revealed in a few exchanges.

Not having YOUR picture as your AV doesn't bother me at all, But leaving it to the generic red face does. I understand you wanting your privacy but it would be nice if you at least posted a pic that depicted something about you. And no guys, that doesn't mean a generic cock if you think you have a big one, LOL!

But I do get upset when a person leaves their profile totally blank. It would nice to know something about them, likes and dislikes, etc. I don't think that is too much to ask for!

I will chat with or friend a person because we connect and not because of their AV.

Oh dear, time to fess up. Only worked out what the avatar meant, I was thinking of the Hindu spirit, duhh! Anyway I'm a technophobe, no idea how to put one on or how to download a picture of myself. It wouldn't bother me having my picture on but it might upset the viewers. Personally I would advise against posting naked pictures with the face showing. You never know where it could end up. What does annoy me is when no country is stated but I've no idea why it bugs me, it just does.

It is nice to see the different sides of the coin.
What do I do I do with a person disguising as someone hotter?
I would love to befriend a person knowing that pic or no pic, s/he's a good and trustworthy one. smile
So yeah, for me what matters is the personality behind the avatar. :)

I don't have any pics of me on the site, but if someone took the time to get to know me and then asked for a picture, I'd share one....

Hell no. I don't trust most who do have them! Why can't everybody just b real. A lot of men are after the fact, but lure you in with a sexy avatar. Some fakes 100%. Must b expected. It is a good way to get to know a person ,if that is their intention. Kills me when posers try to private you, jumping in dick first. Brings out my "inner serial killer"

Profiles without pics are OK. Most people use avatars anyway. Blank profiles are a total turn off. If they can't be bothered to write a couple of sentences about themselves then i can't be bothered talking to them

^^^^Obviously.

I usually judge the number of posts. You can weed out a troll when they have no picture AND have only posted six offensive comments on the same day they registered... Some people don't want to be out there online, especially with the loss of privacy nowadays.

But, with trolls, I call .

True story: I had about 5 or 6 pics of me uploaded to my image gallery. They were obscure because I edited them where you could barely make out my features, but you got the general idea of my face. Since I was barely recognizable, I made the images available for anyone on my friends list to see. A little while after I first joined the site, some sicko decides to PM me a print-out of one of my pictures with globs of his cum all over it. I sent this sicko a message in response that even scared the shit out of me. I was so furious and disgusted and even terrified. My message must have scared senior sicko into submission because he promptly deleted his account.

Needless to say that with the exception of a picture of me wearing a cute pair of shoes (feet only) and a couple of shots of my favorite makeup out of my collection, my personal photos are no longer available for anyone's viewing. And now some sicko probably has 5 or 6 images of me saved to his desktop. Perhaps shared them with friends. Found some sort of way to reverse the effects I used to make my pictures obscured. Started a website. Photoshopped me onto someone else's naked body for a profit. Who knows? I literally make myself sick every single day thinking about that shit. As dramatic as this is gonna sound, I truly feel like I've been virtually . I've thought of deleting my account pretty much every day since that incident. I talk myself out of it because the damage has already been done.

And that was just one sicko that decided to make me aware that he was a sicko. My pictures could be a click away from anyone on this site who's ever seen them. And who's to say this sicko didn't just create another account the moment he deleted his? And who's to say that was the only sicko here out of nearly a quarter of a million members?

And yes, I'm aware of the risks of uploading an image, because even if you're careful people with ill intent will make a way. Yes I should have been more private with my pictures. But this site is like home to me and I just wanted to add another facet of myself to it. I doctored the shit out of a few selfies in my cell phone and uploaded them. But some people are just here to fuck shit up.

So keep that in mind the next time you decide to judge someone who's reluctant to use their own images on here.

I have never connected with ladies who have never had a pic. on their profiles , let alone those who never bothered to write something about themselves. Yet , pics. don't have to be real but would otherwise say something about the character of us. Real pics can be exchanged in a later stage when trust and assurance builds up...
