I couldn’t get any pictures to recognize that I even HAVE a face.

My wedding picture closeup picked out a blurry tree behind me and tried to match it.

Okay – _that’s_ worse than being a woman who looks like Nick Nolte.

Please, please, PLEASE post the pic.

Partly just because I want to see what image they are using for God almighty.  
[/QUOTE]

Talk aboutcher funny syntax. Okay, I will. It’ll have to wait a few days. I tried to upload the image and I’m in Narita Airport in Japan- I cannot send an attachment that size.

Patience, my son. 😃

I’m too afraid to run mine. I’ve been told in the past that I look like Jennifer Grey before the plastic surgery. Who the hell wants to look like a before picture?!?

I tried this a while back. The first time was at work, and the only picture of myself to which I had access was about ten years old. Closest match? Kelly Osbourne. Tried it again when I got home, with a much more recent pic. Closest match that time? Sharon Osbourne.

Sigh. True story.

One, this site is utter crap.

Two, I want to thank **twickster** for showing it to us. My family and I had a really great time playing with it at our Thanksgiving gathering yesterday. Usually everyone’s ducking the person with the camera but yesterday everyone was clamoring to have their pictures taken and then laughing their butts off at the results. It was fun. 🙂

I am supposed to be getting stuff done!!! Instead, I am running my picture through this face recognition thingie. It appears that **bbs2k** and I are twins, related through Philip Seymour Hoffman. Most of my matches were rather flattering. Not sure if this link is going to work for everyone, it’s taking me to the step where I can pick a collage type, but you can see the results, I think: [Me???](http://www.myheritage.com/FP/Company/face-recognition-results.php?temp=a7f28474d2ns1i47&server=Server11&database=2&startYear=1800&endYear=2005&collage=1&loadMethod=myFiles)  
I’ll fiddle with it later…I’m supposed to be doing stuff. Darn you **twickster** for turning this site up! 😛
