"Prepare to be in a photo" answer

The answer for Thursday's puzzle is:

POSE

The rest of the ladder at the top of the page stays hidden until you tap a rung, so you can check this word without giving away the others.

Why POSE fits

If you've already solved DOSE, change its first letter from D to P. The bottom word, POST, unlocks once the middle rungs are in order, and it differs from POSE only in the fourth letter, T instead of E.
