4 Easy Ways To Get A Photo For Your Online Personals Profile


Adding a photo to your profile can attract up to 15 times more attention from quality singles looking for you! So Match.com wants to make sure you know ALL the easy ways to get a digital photograph. Just use one of these four simple options:

Search thousands of personals online and find your match at personals.com
1. Take your photo with a digital camera
Ask a friend to take your photo with a digital camera, then transfer it to your computer. Most digital cameras either connect to your computer directly with a cable or have a memory card you can slip into your PC.

Don't have a digital camera? Borrow one from a friend. Your friend can email you your pics and then you can save them to your computer. Just a few quick clicks let you upload your photos directly to your profile.

2. Use Personals.com Photo Services
Posting your photos is easier than ever. If you use a film camera and want to use pictures from one roll or multiple rolls, send your film directly to Personals.com Photo Services and we'll develop your film for you. Once developed, your prints will be mailed to you - plus you'll have access to digital versions of your pics online, in a password-protected photo album. Use the digital pics for your profile and swap them out anytime, from anywhere — all without a digital camera.

Or if you have digital pictures on your computer or in your camera, upload them to Personals.com Photo Services and enjoy free, unlimited storage so you don't have to waste valuable space on your hard drive.

3. Ask for a photo CD when you drop off film locally
Use a regular camera for your fab photo shoot, then take the film to your local processing center. When you drop off your film, request a photo CD in addition to (or instead of) your prints. It's a popular service that's become very affordable. When your photos are ready, slip the CD into your computer and upload your photos directly to Personals.com.

4. Scan your favorite photo
Who knew scanners would ever be so inexpensive as the ones for sale today? Scan your favorite photo and save it to your computer. Take a few minutes to make any necessary adjustments to the image (reduce red eye, sharpen any fuzziness or adjust for glare), then upload your photos directly to Personals.com.

It's a fact: Singles look at — and contact — members with photos more often than those with no photo at all. Now with these four tips, there's no excuse not to post your pic.
