Hey, this is pretty cool! I made something similar but I was doing image comparison via cross-correlation template matching using OpenCV: https://github.com/jidicula/tinderizer.

A small correction to your README though:

> These pictures are in very low definition though.

There is a way to access the original (highest) resolution of the submitted images through the API. My code picks the lowest-res one though since I'm doing image comparisons.

However, looking at what the output is now, it looks like Tinder has tightened up their API since I wrote this. It used to be the case that each teaser profile that likes you would have all of its images accessible through the API. This is no longer the case, and only 1 image is accessible for each profile that likes you.
