Try putting a moustache on Keith ;D

Anything you say!!

Now  - I think I look like my father's side - not my mothers - what do you lot think!!

Not sure about the personality of my mother's father  - he died in 1929 just before I was born!!  ;)

Cheers

Keith

Keith that's great, I like people who obey :-* ;D :o

I think you really do look like your mother if she's the one next to you.

That waxed moustache of your grandfather's is really something ;)

I'll start on that collage after I've made the soup - I really fancy frightening you ;D

I'm gonna have to dig out some pictures of me and my family and see what you lot think. Apart from the similarity to my dad, I can't see many resemblances.

Will put some up later today or tomorrow.

I think its always harder to see similarities with your own immediate family, - I can always see it with other people's...but not my own. ;D

Best Wishes, Romilly.

The females in my family all look similar.  My mother looks almost identical to my nan, my mothers half sister looks very very similar to my great nan.

the wedding photo is my great nan and the other photo is, we presume my great great grandmother.. and if she isn't she definetly resembles the majority of the females in my family. 

My little sister looks like my mother when she was young, andI apparently look like my mothers cousin.

//edit - it helps if I attach the pictures :D silly me...apologies for the size! :(

Would some kind person on here please tell...how they manage to do those little collage pics?

I thought that we could only post one at a time...

Cheers, Romilly.

Hi Romily,

It is only one picture - they are joined together in the software programme - before putting on the forum.

Cheers

Keith

P.S.  If you don't know how  - please ask  ;)

Hi Keith,

I'm asking! ;D ;D

Seriously...I have Photoshop Elements, - can it be done on that?

Cheers, Romilly.

How I do it is I increase the canvas size on one of the pictures (on the right of the picture) by 200% then clone the second picture onto the blank space and whola.
