Thanks for welcoming feedback. Here are a few thoughts.
I agree that photos help give life to a profile. Of course honesty is important, but I would not highlight newbie as if you are tenuous but then you are clear in aiming someday for full swap separate. Those give me a contradictory impression as to what you seek NOW. All the suggestions posted to me seem good especially as far as enhancing your profile. We in fact note that in ours -- that we are continually enhancing our photo collection. And every so often we change or add a few sentences to freshen it up.
That said, I would also suggest you consider occasionally posting a Hot Date. That is another way to catch the attention of potentially interested couples.
Best wishes and of course ask away!
