Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

i'm not sure I understand the concept here. What's the purpose of putting this 'mask' over an image of yourself? What does it show, exactly?

Personally, I don't find any of the women that you showed attractive facially.

the fibonacci ratio supposedly is a mark of beauty. the lines in that mask are all based on this ratio, and are supposedly the "perfect" human face. There have been studies shown that this is trancendant of race and cultural background.

Inflate your Upload Space

Discover magazine has had articles on symmetry. And it is true. Symmetrical faces are just more attractive.

Another fun thing to do:

Left and right mirror-images of your face

Here's mine

[EDIT]: I changed (tilted the halves) in the other pic a bit

Enter the AD-FREE zone

The one on the left side is too wacky. The one on the right looks fine, though.


Diss,

You use "layers." I know they have them in PhotoShop and The Gimp.

Either that, or my face is far from symmetric.

There's some strange tilt in my head there. The right side photo looks actually very much like me.

[EDIT]: I uploaded a new version of my mirror images. The left-side photo is a bit changed.
