Use ThaiLoveLines effectively by posting a photo to your online dating profile

ThaiLoveLines is pleased to announce a Pro Photo policy on this site. We encourage users of the site to make themselves visible to other users online. The reason for this is to make the dating site more effective, open and secure. One key to doing this is to post a photo to your dating profile.

All new members should post a photo online within 7 days. We should also point out that the use of some of our online dating facilities and services is restricted for those who do not post a valid photo to a dating profile.

Photo boosts your chance of finding Love in Thailand or around the world

Research on this site and elsewhere shows clearly that when you upload a photo to your dating profile that reaction to your profile increases by 900%. A dating profile should be built around a photo placed online.

Matching facilities: When you post a photo, your dating profile is matched against all other online users who may be looking for someone just like you. This is a Standard (FREE) Membership service.

Galleries and profiling: Your dating profile will not appear in photo galleries or on our online profiling system without a valid photo. Your dating profile will appear on searches however but here again precedence will be given to online users with a photo uploaded to our dating site or Premium users. Even as a Premium users (paid membership), you cannot avail of some aspects of our dating service (such as appearing in the Meet your Match sessions or Galleries) without an approved photo as part of your dating profile.
Some good news: Your dating profile can be fully reactivated and even re-submitted for matching and dating profiling purposes and you will then have full access to all dating services when a photo is uploaded and approved.

As part of our Pro-photo policy, we encourage members to do the following:

• Upload an attractive personal photo to enhance your dating profile and generate increased online response. A warm smiling photo with a facial portrait is the essential requirement to make your online dating profile spring to life.


• Ask any user who contacts you without a photo to upload one to their dating profile on the dating site so that you identify them and interact with more confidence.


• Enhance your security status: Do not give out external contact details or make contact with or engage in dating activities with users offsite. This is a security risk. You are more secure conducting dating activities online when you are onsite with ThaiLoveLines security services. Never give external contact information to another online user. If you wish to share photos, use our Private photos and Personal photo galleries in your Manage Photos section. Please take the time to read our security guidance for more effective and safer dating in Thailand. A photo uploaded to your dating profile and associated photos in your private photos and photo gallery section enhances the standing of your dating profile from a security point of view. We encourage a policy of openness and transparency online and this is in keeping with that aim.

Dating profile photo:

Your dating profile needs a clear personal photo with a clear facial portrait. Some key pointers:

• Do not upload a photo that is incorrectly orientated.
• Use the guidance system in our photo upload facility to capture a clear facial photo that can be seen by other users online seeking love or friendship in Thailand.
• Avoid photos with sunglasses.
• Make sure your photo is large enough to impress and give a clear facial portrait.
• Our maximum photo size is 5 Mb approx. and it should be a .jpg photo.
• Use our webcam/device photo capture facility if your computer/device has a webcam or camera connected.
• Please note that you can have a maximum of 4 dating profile photos but if you are a Premium member you may upload unlimited Gallery photos and Private photos.
