Have any of you had a friend on facebook or myspace upload a profile picture that you felt embarrassed to have on your own profile page or displayed on your friends list?

How did you approach it? I figure we are pretty much stuck with whatever shows up, but I also noticed that most people seem to be following an unwritten rule of making the official picture respectable. My page is featured more for business purposes than personal and I don't like having anything on it that portrays me in a different way than I wish to portray myself.

If the pic is their default...then you really have no say in what they have on THEIR profile......unless YOU are featured in the picture as well. just hide your friends list if all else fails

Question Asker I'm not looking to insult you here, but how does this answer fit the question? I'm asking about a profile pic that reflects negatively on me and how best to broach the subject. Your answer seems very judgmental, but doesn't offer me any tips on how best to approach a delicate subject. I'm aware of the "none of your business" viewpoint but the picture is featured on a page of mine now. It feels like you didn't really consider the question at all. - A month ago
Answerer Hmm. Well how does it reflect on you in a negative way then?. I just don't get why you have them on your list if you're offended by their personal picture. - A month ago
Question Asker Maybe it doesn't - depends on whether anyone cares. Maybe they don't.

For example - if you had a male friend who changed his pic to one of him wearing a swastika, then people looking at your friends would likely think less of you. I'd be concerned/curious if that was one of your best friends on the page since it implies that this is something you approve of. That's an exaggeration, but the point is that we judge people by their friends as well as by their actions. - A month ago

Casually say something to your friend like "you need to put some clothes on or I'm going to have to take you off my top friends...LOL" or whatever.

You should set your account to private then. The worst picture I've had was when I was at a playground and got on a metal horse with a metal spring, and yeah, it was horrible. I got teased, made fun of, and all that

Did a friend upload a picture of you that depicted you in an inappropriate manner or does a friend of yours have an inappropriate picture featured as there default? If the first one is the case you can kindly ask them to please take the picture down and if its the second one you can adjust your privacy settings so your friends are only viewable to you.

Question Asker Thanks. The pic is their default. I am reluctant to change the settings because I do not want it to be a friends only personal page. - A month ago

What pickup lines do you use to start a conversation with someone you are attracted to?
I don't use any pick up lines at all, normally some good jokes and a nice smile work pretty well (having my dog with me doesn't hurt either ;) ).

How do they typically respond?
I'd say 99% of the time, they come to me, and from there I start a convo about w/e and they go along with it

Do I have the right approach?
