(By the way, this face belongs to a charrie of mine in a realistic fiction novel I'm planning)

Okay, maybe I'm going at this all wrong, but when I browse your faces, instead of thinking "Ah, that looks like my character," I think "I have to write about a character that looks like that."

*chuckles* I do that too. I added a character to my book because I found a person that I really liked and wanted to build a character around.

I do that three! Must be some weird author disease.

By the way, I got 12 new faces up today - 62 now in total Check it out at www.face-finder.net

@Philli: Actually, 'tis most useful when you have a charrie that needs a face For my realistic fiction novel I browsed through the few faces we have up on there and within five minutes found two of the three MC's faces (#'s 28 and 48, btw )

eru

I found the perfect one for my spoiled princess Anastasia, and one for my shy horse lover. (Might have to touch up the horse lover's face for myself, the eyes aren't quite right though.)

Sorry What with finals and all I haven't checked the submissions email yet *goes to check*

eru

#28 looks like my character too.

Scary But awesome

eru

And sometimes you find a face that just needs a character... (like #50...)

Couple of new faces up today, folks!

No prob, Bob. Err...Lady E.

*loves seeing new faces added*

Very nice!

Wow, this could be a very helpful resource! I have a lot of magazine clippings that I look through, but most of the pictures are pretty small. Maybe I'll donate...

One category I am particularly interested in seeing is guys with beards of different types. It is really hard to find a picture of somebody that looks like the person you are trying to draw, and at the same time have a beard in the right style. And then you have to make it up, and sometimes it comes out looking completely different from what it was supposed to.

@Elly: Thank you

@Camille Esther: Ooh, please do donate!

I will try to keep an eye out for bearded fellows. Right now, the only source of new faces comes from various stock photo websites. It's hard to find much more than fashion models :/ But I will do my best

So... Do the pictures actually have to be 500 X 500? I'm not real sure what that means, or how to make it that way.

As long as they're square and as big or bigger as a full-size image on the site (when you click on one from the main page), that's big enough

eru

Heeheehee! What a fun website! I'll have to donate . . . maybe. It would be fun to see a picture of someone who would fit one of my characters. None so far, though, but potentially some in the future! How exciting.

@Aisha: Donations are very, very welcome But feel free to browse the faces even if you don't donate

eru

* grins * I'm seeing a few possibilities...

Random question... Does anyone have a duck MC (077) they need a face for?

hee hee

eru

His name should be Bob. . . wait, no, there's a penguin named Bob. How about Sam?

Does this mean you'll start putting animal faces for writers of animal fiction?

Um, sorry, no (That was sort of a post-April Fools )

eru

One of the new ones looks like a mix between two of my cousins.

Really? Which one?

eru

84.

Weird

eru

Very. I saw it and I thought, "Catherine? Wait, Katy? Huh?"
