Maybe I have been on a weird streak but I have seen way to many profiles by models that are ALL CAPS. Most of them are under 22 and I would have thought they would know that it is considered shouting online, besides just plain hard to read.

I would not evan ask a model, or photographer to do any work with me if I saw a profile like that.

In my mind they too stupid to bother with.

I assume people use all capital letters because they think it will make their name stand out in a list.  Possibly, but I still find it dumb/tacky.

Honestly, I originally had all my info in caps. 
Only because- I do most of my stuff while I'm in the office and our office program  must be in caps.
I have fixed most of it.  not intentional, sorry for offending anyone, but just wanted to provide a logical reason.
and no- I'm not a twenty somethin' twit !
