FAQ: Managing photos
Quick answers to common photo questions.
Recent photos help people recognize you and build trust. A clear primary photo also improves your chances of getting respectful replies.
Choose a well-lit photo where your face is clear, the image is recent, and the crop feels natural. Avoid heavy filters and extreme angles.
Use the rotate option in your photos page. If it still shows incorrectly, re-upload a corrected version or try another browser.
Common reasons are file size, unsupported format, slow connection, or photos that do not match platform rules. Try a smaller JPG file and upload again.
