I've just noticed my selfies are mostly in the bedroom or on the bed lol I use my laptop camera most of the time and i.find that's the easiest room to get comfy in. Mirrors help of course :) Being a neat freak, I do notice everything in the background in people's pics, and also unclean mirrors :/ I take hundreds to find a dozen good ones. I'm not a professional photographer but these are the tips I go by. Tips: Make good use of the lighting and choose your best angle. Use the cropping tool to remove what's in the background. Clean your bathroom mirror Take closeup shots - to eliminate background :) - Posted from rhpmobile

Take a selfie when your in bed ...dim lights...... .have the camera on the floor and lean off the bed.... raise your chin and extend your neck but tilt so the forehead is angled toward the camera and think about the sexiest thing you've done ....this gives you no double chin and a sparkle of Naughty in your eyes... - Posted from rhpmobile

My bathroom's the only room with a mirror. I could have used the rear view mirror in my car, but I would have looked weird sitting there with my shirt off.

So I have to say I shutter at the thought of bathroom "selfies" Surely you can get a friend to take a shot of you on the phone and you can crop it for privacy? Guys not too many of us ladies like to see you in your ill fitting underpants in your messy bathroom - what are you thinking ? Like Mlle Tulips, be creative, think. there are terrific ways to take photos of yourself without resorting to your bathroom with Ajax bottle on the shelf. Think. If you are this creative out of the bedroom, one can only imagine you are creative in the bedroom A wonderful effort Mlle Tulips Best tip - never look direct at the camera eye, look slightly to the left or right of the camera eye or if you are having your photo taken always look towards and "over the shoulder" of the photographer. It relaxes your face and gives a more natural look

notice the backgrounds, nearly more than the person. And yes there are a lot of bathroom shots but I like them as they are very revealing. Often I have caught out cheaters because they have taken pics in the bathroom with pink towels or female products lying around, you can often detect a female touch to an environment.

My daughter uses my bathroom and leaves her stuff everywhere. I also have female friends who stay over sometimes and leave stuff behind. Not that it's visible in my profile pic, but if it were it still wouldn't make me a cheater.

Begs to wonder. I agree it is quite interesting and funny to see selfies of men flexing their muscles in the bathroom. quite comical at times. I suppose that is the only place with a decent size mirror in the house. and even if it is not, they dont want their wife/gf or mom to catch them semi-naked or naked posing in front of the mirror with their Private Ryan saluting in full attention. Lol. But hey, women do it too so a good laugh at them too. It is contagious. I am crap at selfies so cant say I have mastered it. Will have to google and get tips from Kim K on learning the art of selfies. On second thoughts, nah, who has the time and the energy to do that... Pffft. Lol. On the positive side, I think it is better to have a selfie posted on the profile than the grey ghosts as the latter are more likely not wanting to meet. so thumbs up for those trying. and yes, we do notice the background guys. Details, details... we women read them and make our decisions whether to meet you as if you say you are single, the box of tampons or the bottle of in- shower exfoliating creme in the foreground says otherwise.... and no dirty underwear nor socks in the background please. Will overlook this if you are George Clooney... Lol.

I should send my daughter over to teach you. She is master of selfie taking, but she is 17 and I think it's a skill teenagers develop just before they become a teenager. Although, she still hasn't managed to teach her mum the skill of taking stunning selfies yet, despite her patient attempts.

... Because the wife is in the living room? :-P As for good selfies: a camera with a timer and a lot of patience.

You women are a suspicious lot! I just take people's profiles at face value. If they say they're single, I assume that's what they are. I don't go poking around their photographic sock-drawer for evidence to the contrary...

Last time I checked you were just a distant cousin of the fabulously ageless elegant Mr. Clooney. Lol Am sure your suave demeanor have swooned a few hearts in here, with or without your unmentionables laid out like crumbs leading to your lair, my dear sir. Lol ;-) - Posted from rhpmobile

But the Ajax bottle was intentionally placed there to lure in clean freaks like Ms. Tulips. How can she possibly resist? - Posted from rhpmobile

My dear tulips. Clean the mirror? Fuck that. :p I spent a small fortune lathering contents of jars of Vaseline on my bedroom mirror.to get.that soft lense effect. Gives me.that dreamy look pic in my profile that men so fall for. And spent another small fortune on spray and wipe cleaning it off so my kids wont think I have my private wormhole to another dimension in my bedroom. - Posted from rhpmobile

You ladies aren't the only ones who notice what is in the background of the photos here - or what the subject of said photo has omitted to take off (like a wedding ring and state you are single, or holding a cigarette then claiming to be a non-smoker lol). Not so much here, but on 'other sites' there seems to be a trend among women to take photos in toilets at bars etc - maybe the lighting is better there, maybe it is when they are dressed up (and had a few cocktails), maybe it is just the mirror is bigger than at home. There is one thing that needs to be said though. A bad selfie is still better than no photo at all, especially if you state in your profile you will only reply to someone who has a face shot in your profile. If it is good enough for you to demand a certain type of photo, wouldn't it be polite if you at least followed your own rules? Oh, Velvet was spot on with her wonderful advice, recommend anyone who needs some hints on what makes a good profile photo should check out her profile! (no I was not paid for this endorsement lol) Mooka

Quoting 'VelvetNoir' Best tip - never look direct at the camera eye, look slightly to the left or right of the camera eye Whoops! About 95% of my pics are selfies. I thinks it's matter of playing around and having fun with it. Look on Tumblr or Google for sexy shots to get some inspiration. Just don't use them as your own, like that friend of yours has. Busted...

I smiled. I received a nice message form here but all I could see when looking at the person photograph was all the cleaning products on the shelf by the side of his ..err..appendage in this bathroom I was more fascinated that someone would have so much cleaning product in their bathroom. I counted 7 product that I could see - this put my bathroom cleanliness to shame Detail Detail Detail Mon. Mooka, you are very bad. If I can not take a good photograph I will close up my business :-) but thankyou for your nice comment Mlle. Meander. You are a very beautiful women and relaxed in the front of the camera. You are quite correct that with the selfie, that one should play with the camera and try to use natural lighting. Artificial lighting only ever works when you are heavily and appropriately made up works for you The natural light behind your arm is lovely and reflects on to your face. This may be a fluke shot like my current profile photograph, which is not a "selfie" is but that is how a good shot works. It just happens.

It is a good point though, I never thought about that but nobody I have ever asked has given me that answer, there has always been a partner or the pic was taken 'before they split up'.

Selfies get taken in the bathroom because bathrooms generally have good natural light. Add to that the mirror and it amplifies the light even more.

Most of my selfies are taken in the bathroom because that room has the best bright sunlight in my house and it also has a heat light so I can take photos at night as well.. Photos which people can actually see me properly in. I can guarantee I have no husband/partner. I never look at backgrounds- I really don't care about the background- I'm looking at the person.
