What's happening? No more personal photos?

In my opinion, if you wish to brand yourself, one of the best things you can do is put a personal photo on your profile. Even better, use the same photo on every site you register, you'll find common friends faster.

In the past few days ( weeks?), I have refused countless numbers of profile photos.
Well, they are not personal photos. They are anything but that. I see:
  • cartoons
  • babies
  • shots from afar, we couldn't recognize your face
  • many members of a family
  • a white picture
  • animals
  • space, planets
  • nature
  • actors
The other day, I think I saw the same picture of a beautiful girl 5 times.

I do hope the members who, like me, have the privilege to refuse profile pictures, that they do refuse those.

I don't understand why there are so many. Is there a problem with showing us who you are?

It hurts your business credibility. Big time.
