Calling BeautifulPeople elitist but fair, the site's operators say they're "separating the hippos from the cheetahs" in the social networking jungle."It's not shallow to actively seek to be with someone you're attracted to. That's human nature," says Greg Hodge, managing director of BeautifulPeople. "It might not be politically correct to say so, but it certainly is honest."

Hodge says a woman from Denmark submitted her photo dozens of times over the course of two years, and was only accepted after having dieted, hired a stylist and undergone breast augmentation surgery.

All photos are policed for authenticity. Suspect members are required to e-mail an administrator a picture of themselves holding that day's newspaper. In addition, should a member not uphold the site's standard of beauty -- unless they are the victim of something unpreventible, such as a disease or car accident -- they will be shown the electronic door."We make sure the (attractiveness) level is maintained," says Hodge.
