Honestly, I think most people expect you to put up your best pictures in the fore.
If you don't they might think your average pictures are your best pictures, and you look worse in person.
The world of dating is not at all about honesty sigh
These are my best pictures. I'm terribly unphotogenic; these three (and a redundant bat'leth picture) are just about the only ones I can stand to publicize.
For what it's worth, I like them. You have a good smile, and the smile is what makes or breaks a picture.
Yes, and in most photos, I look like a complete doofus - these are the good smiles, not just random smiles :P
Well your good smiles are adorable. So there. :P
If you have a friend with an interest in photography and a decent camera ask them to take a few pictures. A good camera and some basic photography skills make a huge difference.
As far as I know, I do not have such a friend.
Well if you acquire one bear it in mind. I have a Panasonic GF1 which happens to be the camera OkCupid found took the photos with the highest average attractiveness and a photo I have of myself taken with it (a random snapshot by my sister who's not majorly into photography) got the highest rating of all my photos on their My Best Face test even though I don't think it's the most flattering picture of me from the ones I tested. Some nice depth of field and bokeh in the background seem to swing it for a lot of people though.
I meant the comparison of your bridesmaid one to your non-bridesmaid ones.
People, generally, will make an initial judgment based on the first picture. Of course if you are not interested in general people, it doesn't matter so much.
