when / where did this covering of the face meme start?

I think it's good, so that we can judge the person based not on their looks, but how the clothes fit them, because people consider good looking people to fit in anything.

And, on a note outside of the quality of the fit, a lot of people just don't want anything that could too obviously identify them on the Internet.

Posting a full face photo could easily link your previously secret online persona with your real life identity, which could be a negative depending on your past online activity. Even when posted anonymously on boards such as 4chan, the poster may be considering other stigmas that they would want to avoid having linked back to their real life person, such as the stigma of dressing up and posting it online, or the stigma of posting on a 'controversial' online message board.
