Just for the heck of it, I gave OKCupid's "My Best Face" feature a try. The stuff I wrote in my profile is in top notch shape, but I'm not exactly getting women banging on my inbox, so I figured I'd find out what pictures were grabbing women's attention.
The feature is pretty good. It runs your pictures randomly along-side some other schmuck's picture, and the woman has to choose who she'd date based on the photo alone. I'm not the most stellar-looking guy out there, but I don't have a foot growing out of my face either.
When I got my first batch of results back, I was surprised. I had different photos of me wearing different clothes, and a good chunk of them attempted at being genuine. The picture I thought would rate first place actually rated second. My best rated picture wasn't of me looking my best, it was me doing something funny, and it ranked in the low-60s. (over 50 = choosing you more than 50% of the time)
It made perfect sense. Women will choose things based on an emotional reaction rather than physical attraction. The picture made them laugh.
The next thing I did was run another batch of pictures through this thing. I picked mostly pictures of me doing funny 5hit. When the results came back, I had a new winner. It's a picture of me happily posing with a model skeleton. My second-best picture was my winner from the last round. My previous second-best picture now rated at #7 on my list.
Of course, having nothing but pictures of me doing stupid 5hit will likely make a girl think that I'm a total nutcase. I took the best pictures from my first round, the best from my second round, and threw in some genuinely normal pictures to level things out. My profile now consists of pictures that rated from 55-70% preference, most of them voted by women.
If you haven't used this feature, I highly suggest trying it out and getting some top-notch pictures on your profile.
