Find your celebrity look alike
Have you ever been told you favor a celebrity? Well now myheritage.com has an online tool that will take a 100 X 100 pixels or greater photo of you and compare it against celebrity photos to find your twin. I wasn’t too impressed with some of the results this widget came up with but hey it’s a neat idea.
Using the tool requires registration and they try to trick you into filling out a survey just click “no thanks” at the page where they ask for your SSN (crazy talk these days) and your on your way to finding your famous twin or so they say.Link
How to tell fake images from real ones using Photoshop
Have you ever seen a photo on the internet that was just too good to be true? Well here is a tip from my Photoshop bag of tricks that shows you how to investigate them further.
What you will need
- Copy of Photoshop
- Any photo you like (You can use the ones below if you like)
Batch Processing Photoshop CS Actions
While the batch menu is often overlooked by many Photoshop users the batch tool is a powerfull image tool. Batch processing photos in Photoshop is easy. The most favorable method is to use the batch menu found under the file menu flyout in Adobe photoshop. From the batch menu window you can select a folder and any actions you have created to be preformed on an entire folder. The most common use for the batch menu by far is cropping images and thumbnail generation. However it can be used for other things such as watermarks and red eye reduction the choice is yours. Be carefull when working on slower machines as batch processing lots of images will slow or even lock up ram starved machines and may cause errors in your images. A good practice when working with the batch tools is to make a copy of the directory before batching it. This way if you have an unexpected power failure you wont loose any of your images.
