An image detection method for selecting a representative image of a user is provided. In the image detection method, a plurality of images of the user are obtained, and a plurality of feature parameters of the plurality of images are obtained. A face occlusion analysis is performed on the plurality of images according to the plurality of feature parameters to determine whether the plurality of images clearly show the user's face. A plurality of feature vectors are determined, and a body distribution analysis is performed on the plurality of images according to the plurality of feature vectors to determine a body position and a position type of the user. An image related to the position type is selected according to results of the face occlusion analysis and the body distribution analysis.
