Default Question: Face flipping your profile

Strange question here, I've searched and have come up empty...

Does anyone know of a website that would flip a person's profile image, example: show what one would look like if they had two left sides of their face? (flip the left profile over to the right, to have two left sides of the face put together) and vice versa (show what you would look like with two right sides of your face)

I remember coming across it once, looked like totally different people after the switch.

Chris, are you trying to find someone with perfect symmetry? Not too many of those people exist.

No, I am just looking for samples, I think it would be fun to see what you would look like with two left/right sides of your face...

Actually, I think the pic on the right is a slight improvment.

I think part of it is, if you don't have a perfectly centered, no tilt , straight on picture you're gonna get some completely different views of each side of the face, well it will make it worse anyways.

Also heard that in general the more symetrical your face the more likely you are to exceed in athletic endeavours.

Ya, and the sad part is the one on the top is the ugliest.

I wonder if Chris Dingman and Tim Hunter are aware of this fact?

Yeah, I did that in photoshop.

Just cut half of the face out, duplicate whats left, and mirror it.

Portrait photography usually involves casting a light shadow on one side of the face. So that's why Horcoff right looks sickly pale, and Horcoff left a bit tanned. Of course, that doesn't explain all the differences.

I spend a lot of time on the internet to fulfil my humor needs. But I think this may be the first time that I've had tears running down my face from laughing so hard. Thank you.
