Sure seems like we need more participation from some of the shy people out there ? I am trying to think up some new pictures myself . When I invited people to a nudist camp they said no way ! I told them everybody there is fairly non judgmental . I like to think LH forums are similar . Come on people !
Iāve put a couple up of toy collections, Iām considering personal pics. But I think all pictures have to go past the moderators and itās a bank holiday in the UK ![]()
It would be nice to see more members of any gender participating. Itās very liberating and confidence building.
Itās not necessarily about shyness versus confidence. Some people are quite happy with themselves, but just canāt be arsed. ![]()

It could be a confidence boost - agreed @WillC.
I felt a bit voyeuristic when I looked at peopleās pics - not a category I looked at on the old forum, but thought I would as it is the main benefit of TL2.
I was pleasantly surprised - it is great to see āreal peopleā in Lovehoney lingerie, rather than simply the models on the page description.
Iām not sure I have the selfie skills or kit.
Iāve uploaded one. Waiting for approval. Iām bloody nervous if anything!
I have no selfie skills whatsoever @MsR! I just have a go with my phone and pick what i think turned out ok!
@Serpentwand thanks for the encouragement.
Turns out OH is quite keen to take the pics, and I like lingerie, so weāll see!
No one would believe the amount of selfies I take that succumb to the delete button! I wish I could just snap away and everything would look right but it doesnāt. Taking pics for me means devoting the best part of a morning or afternoon!
@wildflower it is something I have always wanted to do, but didnāt feel I had the figure.
It is my 50th birthday in a week and I still want to do it - OH has surprised me by saying heād like to take photos.
So, letās seeā¦
Iād say go for it @MsR , itāll be easier for your OH to take the pictures than trying to do it yourself and it might be quite exciting for the both of you .
@Serpentwand a chest? A foot and ankle, or wrist with a nice watch? Your profile pic is good - lips, strong jawline? Nice hair and forehead? Bottom / back of thighs?
I hope the men on this forum donāt feel the need to workout or wear stuff before they post - confident bodies are good ![]()
Iām currently using a tablet to take my pictures because the camera on my phone isnāt that great but the thing that annoys me is I have to keep resetting the timer function on it. If I take too long faffing about getting into position the timer switches itself back off. The max on the timer is only 10 seconds anyway but it makes things a bit easier.
As regards male photos on here, Iām happy just to see a normal everyday bloke . If youāre looking to do something different how about hands? Chests and legs are also good.
@wildflower but the results are so worth it! ![]()
The one part i wonāt show is hands, i bite my nails too much, and i have a lot of scars! I have tried just chest and leg shots which i was quite happy with. But i agree, male poses are a bit limited! @MsR having your OH take the pics, will likely be a lot of fun for you both!
@WillC hope so!
If you done want to show your hands, can I say that wrists are very sexy?
Wearing a watch? I may try that!
Can we have a category specifically for images? Or a proper gallery attached to this forum? The current user gallery is to be frank a bit duff with no search options or anything just pages of images ordered by most recent upload date. There has to be a better solution than just an endless thread.
I replied without reading. Never a good start. Let me have another go⦠![]()
Itās new, so thereās no structure yet. Though you can click on a userās profile picture and pull up their mini profile pop-out (if itās not Hidden), and thereās a little grey box that says āx posts in topicā. If you click on that itāll show you a truncated thread of just their stuff, so you can have a mini-exhibition. ![]()
But youāre right, theyāre a little formless at the minute.
Iāve been an admin of a few forums in my time and I have to be honest and say this one isnāt very intuitiveā¦come to think of it not many of them are lol, itās probably going to evolve a little for LH use so it will probably get better.
Thereās definitely some work still to do. And I donāt think theyāve even finished writing the instructions yet (I believe we may be the guinea pigs
). Itās a nice upgrade though. ![]()
And the picture quality is so much better than the old set up. ![]()
