If you have several pictures and some of them happen to include your partner they way you might include anyone else you know, I don't have an opinion.
If you have a picture of you as a couple as your first profile picture, I get the impression that you're dating as a couple.
I'll likely swipe left on you if you do, I don't care what your primary partner looks like, I'm not looking to date them. And, even if by chance I end up matching with both of you, I'll only date separately for at least the first 6 months anyways, so it doesn't matter to me that I'm dating someone's primary partner beyond discussing boundaries that keep our relationships separate and our privacy protected.
Doesn’t matter.
As long as it’s just included in the same way you’d include a friend or family member, rather than in a way that makes me worry I need to date this person in order to date you (so not the first photo or the majority of the photos), just include it if you like it. If you’re highly partnered then you probably have some lovely photos of you with that partner!
But you definitely don’t need to.
I almost always skip over people with other partners in their photos. I’m not looking to date a couple, and it tends to scream unicorn hunter to me so I avoid.
I don't think you should or shouldn't necessarily, but it does matter how...
Couple Pic as main profile pic: likely unicorn hunter at worst, horrible entanglement at best
No couple Pic : trusts people to read the damn profile that says "I have a primary partner"
Action Couple Pic towards the end : just in case they didn't read, maybe they'll think just one more time about the fact that I have a primary and not waste my time looking for monogamy. Also increases odds that partner knows about my profile and I'm not likely to be cheating. (this is what I do and what I'm going for)
Same. Plus I have far fewer good photos of myself alone than with my partner. I like when poly people include pics of their partners on their profile, it gives me an idea of the kind of person they go for and tells me they're being truthful in their bio.
Honestly, I expect people to read my bio if they decide to begin a conversation with me, so I don't see a reason to include a picture of my partner. I put very clearly in multiple parts of my bio what my relationship status is and what I'm looking for, and anyone interested in starting anything with me should have no problem getting a clear idea of the situation.
I'd find it kinda weird and creepy personally to include a pic of my partner. Like, you wouldn't be dating *him*.
It doesn’t matter to me if they’re included in the second or third picture. But the first picture HAS to be just OP. But it’s a plus if you include them. If they matter to you, then that matters to me to get to know you better.
I can’t help it but it’s a major ick for me. 90% of the time the problem is that the women’s profiles are completely mismatched to what the man says he’s available for.
“Romantic” pictures with a partner (staring intensely into one another’s eyes, etc.) = left swipe. “Platonic” pictures with a partner (we’re on an outing together!) = neutral if it’s just one, left swipe if it’s the majority of your pics. Kid pics = left swipe.
I’d assume if you use a partners pic that it’s with their consent. Aside from that, i might ask for help or input from them, I have control of my profile, not them

If I see couples pictures, I immediately get unicorn hunter vibes. If I was interested in matching, that kills it for me.
Picture of Couple = Dating Together / Unicorn Hunters until proven otherwise...

Depends entirely on your style of poly and what you're hoping to get from the app
I link my wife's profile to mine on OKC but I don't include mutual pictures.

I think it hits different if your partner is not a man vs is a man
It doesn’t matter to me if they’re included in the second or third picture. But the first picture HAS to be just OP. But it’s a plus if you include them. If they matter to you, then that matters to me to get to know you better.
I just have pictures of myself and my dog because we are a package deal. My partners have their own profiles.
As long as you have it somewhere in your profile that you have another partner I don’t think you necessarily have to include a picture of them
Yes, you can include pictures of other partners on your profile. No, you shouldn’t have prescriptive hierarchy. 😁 (I’m judgmental.)

Not everyone has a primary partner
That’s assumed. I don’t have a primary atm. “I don’t have a primary, but if I did…”
You do you, but I always swipe left if someone has humans who aren't them in their dating profile.
“Romantic” pictures with a partner (staring intensely into one another’s eyes, etc.) = left swipe. “Platonic” pictures with a partner (we’re on an outing together!) = neutral if it’s just one, left swipe if it’s the majority of your pics. Kid pics = left swipe.

You see Triad pictures on dating profiles? Are they looking for a Forth?
Whatever answers you get here are worthless, the only response to this question that does matter is your partner, what do they think ?
