   What does everyone think. Will it bring better traffic or leave it the same?

      You wanna up your traffic by changing your avatar instead of by what you write? Well, good luck.

      Honestly, the wall paper in the background drowns you out.  You are beautiful.  Have a more neutral background.

      First off, your obviously a beautiful woman. Unfortunately, in my honest opinion this does 2 things, it brings attention via traffic to your site based on your photo's ambiance & beauty which is a compliment to yourself if the pic is real (as I'm not stating it's not by any means, but as an online marketer myself... I've used miscl free pics of beautiful women & atractive men to draw traffic, as we all know sex sells)
      
      But secondly, doing so may cause those not so interested in your content to be there for all the wrong reasons. If your hub is focused on writing, or a specific resource or talent, I honestly think a pic can take away from your content, as surfers just want to add pretty people to their fan or friend list.
      
      Ultimately, you should decide. I almost think if your promoting content, lose the pic. If your promoting yourself, keep the pic.
      
      But what the heck do I know? Other than there is no right or wrong answer, and an opinion is just that, ultmately... You appear to be a smart & beautiful woman, I'm sure regardless what you do... It'll be right for you!
      
      *Naturally, I'm one for the bathing suit pics... Yet if anyone needs to change their pic... it's me. As it was meant to coincide with one hub I wrote, not to be plastered everywhere!

   Your content is more important to bring traffic than your avatar is concerned. People don't see your avatar in a search for bed bugs for instance, they see a brief summary of the top of your article or parts of your hub, not your picture.  So people click on your link in a search because of content versus a picture. Content is more important for initial traffic. Your picture just keeps some people coming back. It also gives the presence of a real person, leading to trust between your hub and your readers.

    kmackey, I do love the expression and there's no doubt you're a beauty - but a different background would definitely be better. Still, I should talk!! Mine is ever-changing & they aren't always the best possible picture, but I'm still experimenting here. I think any nice pic of you will gain some loyalty from readers, though, so you probably don't have to worry too much whichever pic you use.
    The quality of your content would be the obvious priority, of course, rather than your picture. I'm sure some of these men in here disagree, though, and would like you to post the swimsuit one.
    Also, I think that frogdropping's avatar is pure loveliness, no?

       i don't know about him but i definitely not use your pic for that purpose. I just liked your pic that much that i can't just let my eyes off it.
       
       my girl has also seen your pic and she is very jealous from you.
       
       So she should be. you are really beautiful.

          It's interesting what exactly purpose you meant? I meant, and I think Kristie understood me correctly, kissing the photo before going to sleep.
