Take new photos for your online dating venture

There are many things to remember when you join an online dating site, but one of the most important is to always choose the photographs that you believe will give you the best chance of success.

While it is vital that you do not mislead anyone by adding images to your profile that do not truthfully reflect what you look like, there is nothing to stop you choosing the most flattering shots in your collection.

In fact, failing to do so might just be shooting yourself in the foot, as you might find it harder to secure a date with a single man or woman.

Perhaps the best idea is to have new photos taken ahead of your arrival on an online dating site.

You could get a friend to take some snaps that you believe show you in your best light and use them in your bid to attract Mr or Miss Right on the internet.
