And why would anyone send a thumbnail when creating a thumbnail requires modifying an existing image? Answer: the thumbnail is lifted from another website (usually a porn site) and presented as a photo of the person. It's common. Read and learn from those who know what they're talking about, grasshopper.
Sorry NIM and a few others - I'm going to disagree with you here. While that profile is a known fake and has been flagged many times by many people over the year or so that it's been here (the originals of her pictures can be found via tineye:https://www.tineye.com/search/a2b2d040041acfe2285f8e08c61176365e9c60c9/) a pixelated picture does NOT automatically mean that some one is a fake.But taken in conjuction with many other factors - we all know it's a fake.
When we created our non-mod account so that we could both be in chat at the same time, I purposely uploaded a very small image as our profile picture specifically so that it would be very pixelated. That's just the way I chose to deal with posting a profile picture for our secondary account.My point is that a pixelated picture alone does not a fake make. And I'm only making this point because there are several very well-meaninged members here that get just a little too gungho at times in calling out fakes or flagging profiles. And I am hoping they read this post and see that one of the most well known members on this site (whether you like us or not - chances are good you've seen our posts or chatted with us in the chatroom) has a pixelated picture.
LOL, we've been called MANY things on this site...some good, some bad....but never fake! Our profile pic is pixelated and we're about as real it gets.

A thorny question - if the price of loosing 100 fakes was a single member having to change thier pixelated photo? Which way would you go? With the utmost repect to you Jen.
But that is wrong, one genuine member should not be excluded accidently just to get rid of somesuspect members.

Tough question, Rene. The reason I did this is because we will NOT post face pics as our profile pic and when I created the account the only pics I had access to were all face pics. So I chose one that we'd used in our album and reduced the size, so that it wouldn't be worth copying. Frankly I could care less one way or another...but...the pic looks great as a thumbnail...so ...if it's ever requested by TT1 that I remove it because it is so pixelated...I will consider it.
I'm just hoping that every one got the point of my original posting...a pixelated pic , on it's own, does not make someone a fake.

Sister Jen, if I gave the impression that I considered a crappy photo to be the only criterion for judging a fake, I apologize. A crappy photo found by TinEye on porn sites, coupled with an iffy or downrightrisqu profile and a long list of questionable groups usually spells phony or troublemaker. OTOH, we have had some fairly high quality pix lifted from girly or porn sites, occasionaly resulting in discussions on whether the pics are in fact of the member, since we have no rule against posting them elsewhere, even on smut sites. In the end it's a case by case basis. The profile cited in the OP is a new one to me, but it definitely sounds the klaxon.Peace and blessings!
Not in the least, NIM! Just hoping to curb some of the very well-meaninged but overzealous members.

It could also be that she only has a cell phone camera.
The friend who got me on here--I know her personally, and I can vouch for her being genuine. When I got on and got certified, I noticed that she wasn't. When I asked her why, her reason was very simple--she doesn't have a camera!
it wasn't until we happened to be going together to take part in a nude art photo shoot that she asked me to take her cert pictures. During a brief break, I asked if anybody would object if she and I did a quick private shoot off iin a corner. Nobody did, so I brought out the camera, we scrawled the necessary sign, and I snapped the two photos of her, one dressed and one nude. I emailed them to her a few days later, and she was certified within a day or two.
She just didn't have the wherewithall to do it herself.
