Tips for taking pictures for a MySpace page.

Have the subject stand in their underwear in a bathroom. You stand on a toilet or something, and hold the camera (preferrably as crappy of a point&shoot as you can find -- use a webcam even) as high as you can reach above her. While she pouts her lips and looks off to the side, you snap pictures from various angles, making sure you never actually photograph her head-on.

Then, load them all up on the computer, and now it's post-processing time! First, you want to bump the contrast up basically as high as possible -- if you can still make out her features, you haven't gone far enough. Then, change things up a bit every few pictures. For example, if you want that "artsy" feel, make some of them black&white. Add some sort of text (Taking Back Sunday lyrics, for example) in an annoying font, and ta-da: you're done!

Hmmm...

Did I do it right? Not a current picture by the way, hair's shorter now (I do love this picture though)

I really don't understand the need to make pictures black and white; my roomate does that with all of his photos. Is color such a bad thing?

I never signed up for MySpace. Does that make me really cool?

I know a girl who has the exact picture you just described. Exact.

You forget. Have the subject stand on the otherside of a window and take a picutre at the same time. This way, it looks like they took the picture in a mirror!
