i'm going to go with: people that post pics of themselves on the net-tron a lot are insecure and care about what others think

[Sonic Youth Gossip]

might i respectfully add that the occasional pic is very beautiful

[atsonicpark]

On one hand, I'm like "Who cares either way?" .. Personally, I just post pictures I think other people might enjoy. I've never really went out of my way to do it, but some people are into that. SHRUG. On the other hand, I find this constant "net life" creepy. People who stop and take pictures of themselves everywhere, doing everything, and post it on the net. Kinda weird, in a way. Though not as weird and creepy as stuff like twitter.

I kind of regret having posted pictures of myself. I was bored when I was doing it. Oh well.

[quote=Nefeli]at first biggest part of me was "against" it. i liked the idea of everybody being "equal" and faceless. i didnt like and i still dont, the highschool labeling -i mean that was my fear, i dont like when people feel uncomfortable. it hasnt been all that bad though. sometimes it is predictable, like when people start to pay attention more to a beautiful person's posts after he/she has posted a picture.

I agree. If yr pretty and you post yr pic they come in flocks. Then it is hard to tell if you are seen only for your physical traits and not your mental ones. And god knows how many lurkers or crazies decided to keep that pic for thier own sick reasons.

I won't post any pictures that show anything other than my face...and then I usually choose one that is blurred out.

every girl who posts here is pretty beautiful

and judging by how those girls are "scared"/"worried" almost every men on here is kind of a creep.

It is something I am warned about by my husband...also in real life I guess that is what you encounter every day as a woman. There are creeps by the hundreds walkin the streets around here. You can't even walk into the jiffy store without someone commenting on yr ass.

you must have a nice ass.

Dunno, I guess I wouldn't be much worried..."creepiness" is connate with the interwebs, but I guess it's basically at a mildly voyeuristic level...like when you see an attractive man/woman in real life and you find yourself following him/her with your eyes for a few secs till something more important distracts you again or you get back doing what he/she distracted you from.
But yes, posting pics is philosophically a bit different after all, since people can save/store them, they're not just like a fleeting look while walking down the street...
Dunno.
It's complicated.
Anyway, I'm still baffled by the tales of people (girls) getting tons of pms/attention after they post their pics.

[notyourfiend]

for better or worse i've not received all too much attention after posting my picture. the dudes here seem to obsess over a handful of female regulars.

no, it's def for the better. i got a lil freaked out when people were going wild when over my bust line. i brought that topic up in regards to the idea of my back being fucked up. i probably went along w the cat calls a little bit too much becausde i was trying to have fun/extract some humor from the situation. but yeah, i'd rather people comment on my threads, not my apperence.

It's ok. we all like a little extra attention sometimes. an there is no harm in having a little fun. I just don't like feeling so exposed.

yeh, more than a few times female boarders complained about getting creepy messages etc.
Or perverts going through their photobucket etc

[SONIC GAIL]

Don't you have to know the password or something to get into thier photo bucket? Yall better stay out of my photo bucket.

[atsonicpark]

Well, it's a person's own fault if they don't want people getting into their photobucket -- you can make them anonymous if you want to.
