Are you sick of seeing doctored selfies?

There are some standard on my phone app, but those are very childish, if you chose fun instead of photo and it said that more filters were on Snapchat. My kids use that. I installed it. You can just chose a filter and make a pic.

sorry I'm not sure I understand you... you mean you installed Snapchat so you could filter photos ? :unsure:

Does no one ever do a touch up aging them self instead? Is that too scary?
Might be even more interesting really.

My daughter was playing with AI one day... put a picture of herself in and told it to add 30 years. It was a beautiful picture but it freaked her out seeing herself that way and the curiosity of what what AI can do with pictures instantly vanished. :ROFLMAO:

AgingBooth is free on Android and iOS I may give it a shot when I am done running this morning.
I truly hope I don't see those dark bags under eyes like Mom had, the rest I could take pretty well I think.

Snapchat has these ugly things.


Reviews on Tripadvisor. I wanted to make a selfie with the pope but he was busy with church things. Would have been nice if they had communicated that beforehand.1 star.
 
We have all been young and we have no doubt all had times when we lacked confidence, felt unattractive, wished we were taller, thinner, prettier but, we weren't subjected to the same pressures as the social media generation has been. If we had, we probably would have been using filters, wearing hair extensions and taking endless filtered selfies. 🤷‍♀️ Thank goodness I was young in an era before social media and there are no online photos of me in my hey day - mini skirts, white knee length boots, hot pants! :eek:

It kills me to see pictures of myself when I was younger. I was cute! Why did I not know that?

Young people are beautiful. Youth is lovely. We will not have that natural beauty ever again.

I didn’t know that at the time. I regret that I didn’t know that when I was living it.

If you had this realization when you were younger do you think you would have done some things differently in your life or just had more appreation of what youth has to offer?

I don't need an altered selfie to see what I'm going to look like when I'm 10 years older. All I have to do is look in the mirror in the morning........

I have a built in filter. I just refuse to buy glasses. I have also greeted the wrong people and ignored the right ones. Once I said to my son, when I picked him up from school: Hey do you have a new jacket? No I have had this one a few months. Really? How.. oh this is not my son.


Yes No I understand that too but if they don't want to cooperate then that's the end of it for me too of course yeah yeah well

The widespread use of cosmetics (pre-AI) were the "selfies" of the past. Just like the image-altering "selfies" of today, cosmetics are reality-distorting methods of a more technologically primitive past.
