Here is the site where you can quickly check how good your profile photos are.
Check Your Photos Instantly
This AI (artificial intelligence) tool is called Blinq.
It allows you to upload your own photo and get the result:
- Hmm…
- OK
- Nice
- Hot
- Stunning
- Godlike
Do you reckon this photo is OK? Then you know what does it mean if the program tells you your pictures are OK.
This picture should have been marked as “Godlike”. But it’s only “stunning”.
AI thinks this guy is “Hot” Do you agree?
I have checked a few of my own pictures from the same photo session, and they got scored from “nice” to “godlike”. The same makeup and photographer, the difference was only the lightning and the angle.
I also checked a few photos of girls from Elenasmodels.com, and their results were pretty good for professional images.
Then I checked some of my non-professional pictures, and they scored from “OK” to “nice” at best. Even the ones that I really like!
The tool also evaluates your age.
(I was pleasantly surprised that most of my photos were marked as if I were in my twenties. All my photos were non-retouched. On some of them I had absolutely “zero” makeup with a bare face.)
The conclusion: there is some visible and obvious difference to professional and amateur photos. If your photos are scoring only “OK” or even go down to “Hmm”, then you may want to think about trying something different for your profile picture. Especially if the age on them shows you older. Seek the ones where the marks are higher and where you appear younger. Use these in your dating profile on EM.
How Women Evaluate Your Photos
In a very similar way to the artificial intelligence, women quickly glance at your picture and get their own mark: nice, hot, stunning, or maybe just “Hmm”.
Check your profile pictures and you will get a better idea which one may be the best suited for the main profile photo!
It’s a cool tool to play with. Use it also to evaluate whether to put a picture in the profile at all or to select the best from two similar shots. For me, some photos in the same outfit and basically the same pose got scored “Godlike” and “hot” depending whether I smiled or not.
An amazing finding: A smile makes you appear younger and more attractive. Even to AI.

Well, that was depressing. None of my photos showed any better than “OK”, photos from 2015 to 2016 show me as older than I am, and earlier photos from up to five years ago show me as young as half my age. Out of curiosity, I tried the photo taken right after I had a motorcycle accident. I had tubes in my nose, a massive bruise on my forehead from my helmet, and a bit of dried blood on my chin from when I had bitten my tongue when I went over the handlebars. That one got an “OK” and… Read more »
James,
The advice is the same always (for girls and guys): Get a friend with a good camera, take 200 photos in 3-4 outfits, 1 should be this photo, get the natural light (outdoors), pick 10 shots out of 200. Check them through the app. Pick the one that’s rated best as your main profile photo. 2-3 Hours investment, tops! 🙂
Oh, that’s funny! On most pictures it works well, but on one picture the AI doesn’t recognize my face: it puts a square on a small part of my forehead where I have a small scar, and it get’s rated as nice and a few years younger than I really am. 😛
Funny program! I uploaded photos and laughed, as those photos that I like the app appreciated like hmm… And the ones I dont like it wrote “Godlike”. Our views converged only at one photo. Technological progress really got wide development. And what will happen futher? Our apps will not only appraise our looks, but offer to marry us?)
No wonder I’ve never been to Switzerland (where the AI algorithm is from and what it uses as a basis for attractiveness according to the site). The best any photos of mine scored was OK, though they all did guess my age as younger than I am. Back to the drawing board?
I just tried this picture of Elena and it gets rated as hot and 40 years:
You see, professional photos with good lighting do get rated higher! 🙂
Hmm.
Being active in the field of artificial intelligence, I can see what kind of algorithm is used here. Unfortunately it could be quite biased as it will take into account some proportions in the facial spots and will also take into account the perception of “beauty” in the images taken as samples for the algorithm’s training.
Hence, a word of caution 🙂
And not surprising, the guys are still looking for funding. That kind of thing is not hard to do nowadays.

HA! Loving that stuff=) Now I don’t need to estimate my friends’ photos when they ask me about their beauty before uploadind them on Instagram.
It’s really cool program! I like it because all my photos are estimated as «Good like» or «Stunning». But it always shows me younger than I am! I think it’s just a compliment to me. Only one picture was «OK», that’s why I should remove it from my profile.
