http://www.myheritage.com/FP/Company/tryFaceRecognition.php?s=1&u=g0&lang=EN I got Anna Kournikova, Fay Wray, Bette Davis, Catherine Deneuve, Anne Frank, George Sand and Alicia Keyes. And some other people I never heard of. If I were a man, I would look like Buzz Aldrin or Lee Harvey Oswald. (George Sand was a woman, in case anyone wasn't aware of that.)
[quote:f6395ac507="Rincewind"]I was *very* drunk in the photo he chose of me. You have to take that into consideration.[/quote:f6395ac507] Ah but the "Rosie and Jim" one is a classic!
Nothing wrong with 'Jim' as far as I'm aware it's the only puppet with a girlfriend, so he (I) must be pretty hot.
Okay I succumbed and registered and checked out Marcia's link I used the profile pic as seen in the thread. Results errr mixed [b:dabdd32ec5]Category Who??[/b:dabdd32ec5] Linus Torvalds [b:dabdd32ec5]Category Fairly Accurate [/b:dabdd32ec5] Dino Zoff [b:dabdd32ec5]Category You have to be kidding me[/b:dabdd32ec5] Kevin Costner Ray Liota Robert Redford (!) Brad Pitt (wtf??)
Linus Torvalds invented Linux! I tried with a 3 year old picture and a recent one (the one in my profile) and got completely different results: Older one: Jeff Buckley: 58% Harold Wilson: 58% Robert de Niro: 54% Sean Penn: 52% Recent One: Jacques Rogge: 53% Brad Pitt: 52% Scarlet Johansson: 44% Richard Leakey: 44% I have to say, the pic they supplied of Harold Wilson did make me think I shared a fair few features with him. Probably the [i:2d61230633]actual[/i:2d61230633] best match of them all.
[list:d9db4cc600]L Frank Baum Gerard Depardieu John Pople (don't know who?) Viggo Mortensen (don't know who?) John Carpenter Jean-Bertrand Aristide Omar Sherif[/list:u:d9db4cc600]
Viggo Mortenson played Aragorn in LOTR. Don't know who John Pople is, nor the other John, the Jean nor the Frank. Mal, your face is soooooo un-mainstream.
Frank wrote the 20 or so Oz books, Wizard of Oz etc. John Carpenter is a famous director, and writer I think. Horror movies mostly. Anyway I just tried Terry Pratchett and it got 62% for Terry Pratchett, also Sergey Ilyushin 58%, James Coburn 58%, Steven Spielberg 53% and the creepy Harold Shipman 52%
Yngwie J Malmsteen!!!!!! And Angelina Jolie and River Phoenix and Liv Tyler and Shania Twain and some Victorian guy with an EXQUISITE moustache.
Well in the name of time wasting I got: Kate Winslet (70%) Monica Lewinsky (59%) Hilary Diff (57%) Josephine Baker (54%) Who? Lauren Bacall (47%) Isabelle Hupert (45%) Who? Jack Nicholson (44%) Juliette Binoche (44%) Olivia Newton-John (44%) Kajol (41%) Who?
A very good friend looks like no one whatsoever. I always thought her cute face was unique. Oh, no, I lie. If I use the face selector thing, she looks like Elijah Wood. Frodo! She does a bit, actually. I think it's the hair. Though his is quite a bit darker. Another friend has no matches, but that may be because the picture's blurry. And I apperantly look like Ninet Tayeb (72%), Emma Watson (71%), Audrey Tautou (71%), Deborah Kerr (71%), Beyonce Knowles (70%), Cameron Diez (67%), Zhang Ziyi (66%), Norah Jones (66%), Romy Schneider (66%), and Asia Argento (65%). To tell the truth, I think I look more like Argento than anything else. Some of these people look way out there...
An interesting program. I got Harry Belafonte(57%), and I have no idea who that is, Iain Banks(54%), Ang Lee(50%), Niklaus Wirth(48%, and who?), Meryl Streep (42%), Steven Soderbergh(42%), Kevin Mitnick(42%), Frank Oz(42%) And there were two more, but I ignored them as they were lower than 40%.
Hmmm, running a photo from the same period gets completely different results. Not the most trustworthy program, it would seem.
That thing is rather addictive. Audrey Tatou 73% Vivien Leigh 69% Liv Tyler 68% Angelina Jolie 68% Sophie Marceau 61% It also keeps telling me I look Asian, or like Keith Moon. :|
Well, I guess they selected only physically flattering people to put in there I got: Jennifer Conelly (61%) Marguerite Yourcenar (58%) Shirley Temple (57%) (wtf ? ) Ingrid Bergman (46%) Sarah Michelle Buffy (41%) (OUCH ! :shock: ) Billie Holiday (41%) And my man got... Tom Cruise (49%) He's gonna be mad about that !!! He's Soooooo proud about being taller than Tom On a more worrying note, he also got Pinochet somewhere in the long list... and Juan Pablo Montoya, which doesn't really make up for it.
I got Al Gore as my top match. And I was secretly hoping for a prophet/sonofagod/person (depending on your religion of choice). Remember Monty Python, "The fat one weighs up the two skinny ones"?

All right I was a bit hesitant to do this - but I had nothing to do there for a few minutes. I 'look like' nicole Kidman: 57% George Soros 51% - Who? Cameron Diaz 51% Rennee Zellwinger 50% Kiera Knightly 50% My twin whom I happen to have a picture off 'looks like': Eligah Wood 64% Nicole Kidman 63% Averil Lavagine 60% Kiera Knightly 55% I think we look like each other John Belushi came in at 44% 'Look alike' to me - I think he's probably the most like me- round face and flatish looking nose!
Well, there are a few of us Cameron Diazes here, it seems! I also got (using the Evil Fairy Picture): Amelie Nothomb (who?) Antonio Banderaz (!!!) Sting (!!!) Shakira Salma Hayek Drew Barrymore Kevin Spacey (!!!) Greta Garbo Courtney Cox Well, that's not a bad lot, I guess. I also stuck in the picture of Clay and Dawn, from which Dawn got Anna Kournikova and Clay got Thierry Henry!!
[quote:556c159b88="Hermia"]I also stuck in the picture of Clay and Dawn, from which Dawn got Anna Kournikova and Clay got Thierry Henry!![/quote:556c159b88] Well, I think Dawn's not only cuter than Kournikova, but probably a MUCH better tenis player. Who's Thierry Henry, though?
[quote:ca19dd7769="Katcal"]Hermia : This is Amelie Nothomb, she's a writer, very controversial in France, and very excentric...[/quote:ca19dd7769] Ok, that suits me just fine. I'm sure I'd also be very controversial in France, given the opportunity. In fact, I might just add it to my list of New Year's resolutions!
