    I will never post a selfie on MFP as long as I have my current job because there are too many co-workers who use this site and would know how much time I spend on the forums when I should be working.

    The interwebz can be a scary place and people are nuckin futs around these parts. That's why people do it.

    Yup.
    <~~ Plus, I like to warn people about what they are getting themselves into.

    Damn! Breakfast looked delicious!

    If a lot of your friends are just starting their account, then odds are, they will eventually get around to it.

    Everyone is exposed to my personality already, having a real picture up would be too much awesomness to handle.


    I'm doing this for you guys, really.

    Yeah, I tend to use pics of quotes or stuff I like on MFP, not pics of myself. The pics of "before" body are only viewable to my friends lists and do not contain my face.

    FB now....I am totally guilty of splashing my face and my kids all over there. But I keep it all private and recently started not putting my kids faces in my profile pics. I want to try and stop the picture madness, but it has become an addiction almost, lol. Especially when my husband's grandmother is always "Oh, I just love FB, get see all my grandkids!" But I am trying to tone it down. And I delete old albums periodically.

    I have more fun posting pics of my dogs and horses. They're cuter anyway, and that's the only way I feel comfortable in pics is with them. Camera anxiety.

    some people do it for privacy reasons...
    +1 Some jobs (psychiatrist, teacher, lawyer, politician, etc - anyone in the public eye or with a need to keep their work and private life separate), it is not such a great idea to put your face out there. To be honest, I like the way that I look even at such a big size :tongue: but (hope to - scratch that) WILL someday post before and after picts. (and I kinda look like a babushka anyway so the picture is close enough)

    I posted a pic of my actual face and somebody mocked me and said I try way too hard to "look cute." I will never post it again. And that is my experience.
  • I'm embarrassed by my weight, diet and fitness, and would hate anyone I know seeing this. Simples. :)

    There's so many awesome pictures of stuff available on the internet, why would I bore people with my face?

    My profile and ticker are matchy-matchy though!

    I guess I did it to stay anon. Also because I don't have any fitness pics…

    Perhaps I'll take some at Zumba or the gym so that people will have something to look at if they're curious. I still like the matchy set though.

    Despite going against my better judgement and actually choosing to use a real picture of myself as my avatar (as cringe-worthy as it may be), I struggled with it for a bit when I first signed up, because quite frankly, I loathe seeing pictures of myself and I don't necessarily fancy the idea of putting innocent people through the torture of having to see my face. So, erm ... yeah. I'm sure there are a lot of other people out there who feel the same way I do when it comes to pictures of themselves. And, of course, there is that whole privacy thing as well.

    Aw, I think you're just fine. I'd love to polish your dome with some turtle wax and make it super shiny and sparkly :drinker:

    Clearly that person wasn't trying hard enough to be human. That person has the problem, not you.
