Post a pic of yourself RIGHT NOW!

Post Reply New Topic

naw, i think people still want to see pictures of you. it's just that when people post a lot of them it comes across as spammy. nobody was saying anything negative about your photos themselves, it was about the volume of the pictures you posted. i wouldn't worry too much about it as you had as many people defending your posts as you had complaining about them. there were good points from both sides, and i'd say that ultimately: everything is good in moderation.

For me personally, I am not bothered about how many photos you post Jess. I think people don't like it as you usually post them daily and a few people like to play the "how old is Jess game" so that takes up twice as much posts on this thread. My advice would be to start a new thread for it, some sort of how old do I look thread so people can continue to play and others can join in.

Not right now as I took this yesterday, but couldn't be bothered uploading it until now. I reckon I could be doing with a haircut.

Also I see your:

And raise you:



No such thing as too much duck face!

Is that what made you want to be a moderator?

That's not so much 'duckface' as it is 'pufferfishface'.

I can see the duck face catching on..

Actually that's not true. The photos themselves were all incredibly alike, as has already been pointed out.

Jess, sorry to hear you're upset ((((((hugs)))))))))))

No one's saying you have to stop posting photos completely! This is just as much your thread as anyone else's. Maybe just make it a rule to wait until at least, say, four other people have posted a photo before you post another one of yourself (i.e. don't post lots of yours all in a row). Otherwise, you could start your own thread and post lots and lots - as many as you like. Also try and make the photos different (i.e. different poses, different backgrounds, different lighting, different hairstyle, different expression) because otherwise it just looks like you're posting virtually the same one over and over again. However, I know that this can be difficult when you are an Aspie. A lot of my photos all look the same as well, because, well, my clothes and expression and setting do not tend to vary all that much!

Maybe you could try pulling some funny faces, or taking a photo from the side instead of the front, to show your profile. Just some ideas...

I can see the similarities I could have started a trend but looks like its already been done:

Blowfish Face

Thanks Hyperlexian

EnglishJess, I'm sorry you feel upset by the comments and discussion. Please don't let it stop you from posting your photos in this thread.

There's also the option of commenting on photos without repeating the photo itself - I've noticed some people do that in this thread. So if people want to play the guess the age game, for example, they could always just refer to the photo and make a reply without the picture itself. That would reduce the amount of repetition of the same photo.

WHA-? The crazes that sprout up these days.... Is it meant as a form of attraction??

*Awkward aspie hug*

heck no, i didn't want to be!! !!

Ah 808 STATE! AWESOME.
