Make a Face App Reviews

ok, I guess everyone likes looking at themselves, so it's no surprise that make a face is fun to use. where it gets really interesting is when you start adding in family members.. then friends... then random people with interesting faces... even the occasional non human - just kidding. but it does produce some pretty amazing results. the support website is very helpful with advice, because it is important to take photos from the right angle, and the website gives very good examples of how you need to do it. what I really like is how the program is able to line up pictures of people of different ages (different size heads and hairstyles) so exactly. the face picture sections get adjusted to the right scale automatically. I used a picture of my grandmother when she was my age now, then a picture of me when I was young, then one of my mother now, then one of me now...wow..I watched it over and over again.. the same, exactly the same eye shapes staring back at me. eerie experience.... neat.

I've had this app for about a month now, and we all (wife, daughters, and son) get more interested in what it does and the way it works as the weeks go by. We have gotten very good at taking the right type of pictures and cropping them so that when they are imported to Make a Face they produce really interesting, precise results. We naturally started with pictures of family members, but now anything goes, from celebrities to historical figures, cartoon faces, and all the combinations in between. It's fun, it's cool, and it gets addictive. I never before paid so much attention to the similiarities and differences between the way people's faces are built. Our eldest daughter has the face of every one of her good friends loaded into the program and they watch their faces getting mixed together on our flat screen TV, alternatively laughing at themseleves and then mesmerized by whose faces fit together and whose do not. My one request would be to increase the memory of the program so we could load more pictures into it. Once more than 10 faces are loaded in, the app slows down a bit. Our favorite feature is the mini-group and the scatter feature, but the whole program is very, very clever.
