One of my friends recently saw my professional profile photo and politely told me that I could do better.
I was having a déjà vu of my late mom telling me to pose to photographs outdoors or hire a professional photographer so that I could be more marketable in the Arranged Marriage market.
I use the word market because there are profitable Indian matrimonial websites where the men are competing for women, who are fewer in number in India.
Like most people, I just don’t like posing to the camera intentionally. Well, to tell you the truth my wife and I disliked the photos that our families sent to one another. We did connect in person.
Coming back on subject, I really valued this friend’s feedback and I told myself I better do something about it.
I also learned about scientific evidence that hiring managers and recruiters, make sub-conscious decisions based on physical appearances. I got to know about this cool website called Photo Feeler.
People anonymously vote on your professional photo based on Competency, Likability and Influence. I posted my online photo and I got dismal results with less than 10% acceptance in all three categories.
I was shocked, as I had cropped the image from a Facebook profile picture with my wife that had got over a hundred likes! I guess people were complimenting my wife and not me.
On further research, I found it is not recommended to crop from an existing photo that you like because it loses its aesthetics complying to social media website photo requirements.
The survey results were unbiased, as people voted anonymously and objectively.
I started searching online for professional photographers in my area and luckily managed to get an appointment the very next morning.
My photographer was very friendly and suggested an outdoor location. He asked me to wear a tie and jacket and made me pose in fifty different angles.
He was conversational and made me talk about my interests so that I felt comfortable and natural.
I selected and uploaded five photos in Photofeeler. I chose a sample size of 40 people to vote on each photo so that it is statistically significant. The results were varied and illustrated below.
I basically look competent and influential but I am not very likable digitally. In photos where I smiled and had a tie, I got the highest ratings in all three categories.
This is in agreement with the research conducted by Photofeeler.

Some of you might be wondering why am I sharing this in public and making myself vulnerable.
Well I was hesitant at first to write this post but two TED videos by Brene Brown inspired me. I really recommend watching them.
I hope you find this post beneficial. I appreciate commenting and sharing it with your friends, colleagues and family because people need to know that their Linkedin photo online really matters.

2) Listening to Shame

August 29, 2025Hey people, I've been diving into the world of internet gambling lately, and I’ve gotta say — it’s surprisingly fun. At first, I was super skeptical. I mean, how do you even rely on an online platform with your hard-earned money, right? But after doing a ton of research (and trying out a few questionable sites so you won’t have to), I figured out a few things that set apart a reliable casino from a complete fraud. First off, if you’re new to all this, here’s the golden rule: **licenses matter**. If a casino doesn’t have a proper regulatory certificate (like from the Malta Gaming Authority or the UK Gambling Commission), just run. No bonus is worth the risk of never seeing your money again. Also — and I know no one wants to — read the T&Cs. That’s the only way to know what kind of wagering requirements they’ve slapped onto those so-called “generous” bonuses. Now, let me share a site I’ve been using these last few weeks. It’s been a breath of fresh air. The interface? Super smooth. Payouts? Quick — like 24 hours quick. And the game selection? *Insane*. Slots, live dealers, blackjack, even some oddball options I hadn’t tried before. Check it out here: plinko romania . What really impressed me was the support team. I had a tiny issue with a bonus not working, and they got back to me in like no time. Compare that to other sites where you’re just left hanging — yeah, no thanks. Also, if you’re into bonuses (and who isn’t?), this place offers some awesome ones. But here’s the trick: don’t just go crazy over promos. It’s smarter to stick to clear terms than a huge bonus you’ll never be able to withdraw. I’m not saying you should go and blow your whole paycheck — please don’t. But if you’ve got a little extra fun budget and you’re looking for a chill way to spend an evening, online casinos can totally deliver. Just keep your head on, know your limits, and don’t treat it like a side hustle. It’s for fun, not for a paycheck. Anyway, just wanted to drop my experience here in case anyone’s curious or trying to find a good place to play. If you’ve got your own stories or even some casino nightmares, I’m all ears — love talking shop about this stuff. Good luck out there, and may the odds be ever in your favor ??
