I'm trying to find software that will alter the appearance of people to change their age. specifically, i want to be able to alter photos of old people to make them look young. eg. from age 65 to age 17. anyone know of anything that will do this? thanks for any help.

anyone know of any web forums to post this question?

I have never seen such software available for general use although I believe it is used by the Police. I too would be interested in such software.

Quote from the site:-
"I often get e-mails inquiring about software into which one can put a photograph and have it automatically turned into an age-progressed portrait. There is no such software. I am a classically trained artist with an ability to observe and portray faces which I have been using professionally for over 45 years. I have also studied physical anthropology which allows me to do a forensic analysis of the structure of a face and understand how age changes it."

I believe they have software that can do the opposite: take a photo of a 17 year old and predict what this person may look like today, now he/ she is ten years older.

If she's twenty years younger, she may not want such an old husband... ;-)

If it will work on her, it will work on me :)

I've seen it most often used when a child is abducted and been missing awhile. Someone does a computer generated age enhancement of how the child might look years later.

But I don't see why someone with a bit of forensic backgound and a whole lot of skill PS couldn't do.

Not me, of course, I'm still figuring out how to slice and move heads.
