However I try I can never get in the camera shot when I try to take photos of myself? Help me!

This is a common problem and while nothing makes it go away other than practice there is a cheap alternative if you're desperate. Find yourself a largeish mirror, stand in front of it, hold up your camera at arms length so that it conceals half of your face in the reflection and then take your photo. You won't be able to get enough of your face into the photo this way, and you'll lose some of the angle style, but at least you'll have a photo of you. Doing it this way also means you can show off your spangly belt that's buckled to one side.

Can't my friend take the photo of me?

No. If you have a real life friend you need to get them into the photograph too to prove that you have one. Though they don't increase your friend count on myspace real life friends can still be used to give you the appearance of popularity and therefore indirectly boost your popularity. Also, they can come in handy when you're computer fails and you have to borrow someone else's.

Can't my mum take the photo of me?

No! You hate your mum remember? She just doesn't understand you! Remember the time you came home from that night and she asked you how things were and you yelled at her face because she was so in your face and then you stormed off to your room and spent literally AGES on livejournal writing about how much she hated you and all that time she didn't come see how you were? That's what it'd be like if she took your photo. Only worse.

Can't my brother or sister take the photo of me?

No, if your brother or sister is cute then pretend they are a friend and use them to boost your popularity. If they aren't then you should be writing long blogs about how much you hate them and how much they annoy you and so getting them to take a photo of you would be a tad hypocritical wouldn't it? And myspace isn't the place for hypocrisy of any sort.

Can't I use the self-timer?

What are you? Some kind of emo-cry-baby wuss? GROW UP.
