For some reason today everyone is about self-image, and people take pictures of themselves in order to get compliments!. They started changing it up, and I think that they think it's "artsy" although it's really just poor photography!. Sadly, I think a lot of it started with the Myspace profile picture craze!.!.!.at least they stopped with the photos of their reflection in the mirror!.!.!.especially when they would leave the flash on!. I guess that's cool!?!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
