Cost too high for IMDb Pro

You need to allow actors to at least have a head shot not heir standard IMDb page if they do not have a Pro account. Or offer a more reasonably priced standard IMDb account that allows some photos. Not every actor can afford $149 for a Pro account, and frankly that price is far to high for what the account offers. The casting calls are predominantly unpaid or ultra low budget projects which offer no travel expenses. There have been very few that I have found helpful. Other than the photos, at the lower tier of acting, there is simply no benefit to having an IMDb Pro account and many struggling actors cannot afford that amount. It is extremely unrealistic. The concern and chagrin over no longer having an IMDb photo on their accounts is becoming a frequent source of bitter complaint on actor Facebook sites and is further hurting your relationship to actors and reputation. Please review your cost and your benefits and offer a realistic solution for the actor still climbing the ladder.

4 years until now and they never implemented the idea. The more money they have the more they want. That is a good idea to allow at least the actor can upload one image. For actors that have the money to pay for it they don't invoice them but for the unrecognized actor that maybe hasn't the money has to pay. injustice. 

But again, is a good idea to allow put one image.
