HOW TO TAKE RATING PICTURES

[Looksmax]

Lens distortion affects selfies because they're usually taken too close, at arm's length. For accurate ratings or looksmaxxing advice, photos should be taken from at least 6 feet away. Here's a quick guide:

1. Place your phone at eye level on a stable surface.
2. Ensure the phone is straight.
3. Use the back camera.
4. Set a 10-second timer.
5. Stand 6-8 feet (2 meters) away, facing the camera.
6. Align your eyes with the camera lens.

Remember not to zoom in while taking the photo; only zoom in later to view details. Follow this method for the best representation in your photos.

With mirror pictures do the following.

1. Position yourself three feet away from a mirror.

2. Hold your phone upright next to your head, ensuring the camera is at the same level as your eyes (avoid taking mirror selfies with the phone positioned below your chin as many tend to do).

3. Gaze directly into the mirror, keeping your face aligned vertically, parallel to the phone beside your head (you might need to slightly turn your head toward the phone to ensure your face is captured at a neutral angle in the photo).

4. Snap the photo.

5. VERY IMPORTANT: zoom into your face on the photo, capture a screenshot, and then reverse the screenshot image horizontally to correct mirror image distortion (since the mirror reflection reverses the original image, you need to counteract that effect).

Here are some photo examples of demonstrating the desired outcome after following steps (1)-(5):
