This is Robbie McDoggie, the Official OneCard Dog. Here are some of his earlier attempts to submit a photo which we rejected.

Your photo must

• Show you looking directly at the camera   with a neutral expression or smiling.

• Have your face clearly visible and   shoulders square to the viewer.

• Have a white or off-white background.

• Include only your head and upper   shoulders.

• Not show other people, animals etc. or   parts thereof.

• Avoid headwear or sunglasses (exceptions are made for headwear worn for religious or medical purposes)

  Basically, think passport or driving licence   photo.
