From: Grimly Curmudgeon on 30 May 2010 12:22 We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember hummingbird <hummingbird(a)1.0.0.127> saying something like: >I want software to digitally manipulate my photos so I can turn the >subjects around. If they have their back to me, I want to see their >faces. > >Preferably freeware. Sure. It's out next century and called 'Faceabout'. Just hang on and it'll be with you sooner than you expect, because any picture that's taken with conventional cameras can be scanned with 'Faceabout' and a timeline is opened that will reach back to the instant of exposure to poke the subject on the shoulder and a sub-vocal command will mysteriously compel them to turn around to face the camera. As you will appreciate, the picture you're holding right now with the backs of the subjects heads to you will instantly transform to a photographic record with full facial features provided, and this is the tricky bit, provided someone in the future uses 'Faceabout' to scan your pics. You can always leave a note in the tin box or DVD with your pics on. A sort of time capsule.
