Answer 6

I personally think I look better than pictures than in person.

But that's just me. Lol, I dunno.

Answer 7

Usually it's the other way around.

Answer 8

yeah....it's possible.......or maybe the reason is that when you meet them in person, their personality shows....and it's not that attractive

Answer 9

yeah i think theres alot of people like that

but me on the other hand i look better in person

Answer 10

mmmm...that's an interesting question. i'm no scientist, but yeah, i think so. if the camera taker knows their "good side" and what angle and capture good lighting, then the person in the pic CAN look better than in person.  

Answer 11

Lots of people edit there pictures before they put them online, so yes, most people look better in pictures. With modern technology you can look almost anyway you want. It's very deceiving.

Answer 12

haha probably after photoshop and all that editing

but i think people look more attractive out than in photos

Answer 13

WHOA?!!! 10 LBS?! Wow!

Answer 14

Yeah, some people get lucky camera shots but then in person you see all of their flaws and their bad sides. It happens.. photoshop can also do wonders.
