I 100% agree with Dinah, Try getting a relaxed non-webcam photo while you are doing something you enjoy, maybe outdoors. I tried online dating once and to be honest, I deleted all guys who used a webcam, I dont know why but there is something about the way a webcam picture comes accross that I don't like. Go more for a more natural photo.
