    Yeah, I know the site does not exactly work well (after all it gave a 54% match with some woman I'd never heard of ) However it is slightly funny.

    When I get brave I will post an actual pic of me here.
    They gave me Josephine Baker and I'm not of African descent and then another time they gave me Chuck Norris and the last time I looked, I wasn't male either. I tried different pictures and each time it gave me a different person, all way off, the last one was Eva Peron, I think that one was my favorite.

    I kind of doubt the reliability of this site. I tried with a number of photos and I got different results every time and I don't agree at all with them.

    Christina Ricci 72%
    Jennifer Love Hewitt 64%
    Charlotte Church 61%
    Kate Winslet 59%

    Except for, hey, I got Ewan McGregor! 54% anyway...

    I'm glad I'm not the only one with 'cross-gender' results. Ewan McGregor is so much cooler than Chuck Norris though so I'm kind of jealous.

    Here's another attempt...Shannanigan is stubborn....and too lazy to visit the celeb comparison site, lol.....

    I feel like I need an excuse for this picture, so here it is: I'm on my boyfriend's computer, and this is the most decent pic of me that he has bothered to use up file space with, lol...

    anyway....enjoy?

    Yeah, it is. I guess they try to match very general facial characteristics, not going by ethnicity or the sex of the person. After all, it is just software, not an actual person that is running the comparisions. I wish I got Ewan McGregor too, he is cute!

    Actually, I was joking. What I did get was the following:
    You know the third picture at this location? http://www.online-literature.com/for...&postcount=614 (The one about which Robin hinted something a bit, perhaps, elvish about? The site said it resembled Faye Dunaway. Most of the selections are pairs of a male and a female, with the one that is said to have the higher percentage shown. If you want to see the person of the other gender than is shown, there is a picture switching option between the two "lookalikes". I hadn't noticed this at first.

    For a single photo, I was presented with Natalie Imbruglia as the closest match, and Bjorn Borg as the closest male match! They aren't exactly even 30% like each other!

    I also was told I looked like Calista Flockhart! That really irked me, as some silly employee used to say I reminded him of her character on some stupid show I hated. But the same person used to stare at people, quietly singing to himself, and we always thought he was addressing us in low tones, and always asked him, "What?"

    For one picture, I resembled Sean Bean (the actor that played Boromir in LOTR0, while, in another, almost identical photo, it was Billy Boyd (who played Pippin). Once I looked 68% like Hugh Grant, and also 66% like Chaka Khan! In one picture, I looked 68% like Liv Taylor (who played Arwen in LOTR), with no male match. When I first noticed the selection could be switched over to the next closest match from the other gender, I switched it over from Alanis Morissette to Jimi Hendrix! I was compared to several old, flat-faced men for photos in which I thought I looked better than some of those that were matched to young actresses.

    Kilted, or whoever said it is right - that site's busted!

    For about a third of my photos, it said there was no match.

    Nice pic Kilt. You look like the type I would love to have a beer with. Nice looking girls too. I'd wear a kilt if (assuming I was single) it would attract girls like that.
