Hi,
I have a question for all of you who have their youth photos as avatars: Are you recognisable nowadays according to the photos ???
Just interested...

Hey,
people are as old as they think about themselves. I think you truly are young...
Hm, you may be like seventeen or so in the picture, now that you are 56 (?), I am pretty sure that those looking with their heart would not see the difference.

In my heart I will always be 15. In the pic 17.

I'm 25 but during the last several months I was feeling like a fifty year old. Recently it got better and I have been under 30 again since.

Not in a million years! I was a sweet kid. Just look at me now! Ugh!

The paradox has often been noted that the United States, founded in secularism, is now the most religiose country in Christendom, while England, with an established church headed by its constitutional monarch, is among the least. (Richard Dawkins, 2006)

There's no actual picture of you to consider..., but you were a sweet kid.
However, each kid is a sweet kid, we just turn ugly when we mature (I'm 25, isn't that silly what I have just written ???)...

My picture is a year and a half old, so hopefully I don't look very different from that now (though it's well overdue for a replacement).
The picture on my driving licence is from when I was only just 17 (or possibly still 16). I've been told it's still very recognisably me; I'm pleased about that, because otherwise I'd probably need to apply for a new one.
To be honest, I don't think I look terribly different from when I was 13 or 14. When I'm back at my parents' house, I might dig out a school photo and scan it, and post it here. (Or Tim -- perhaps you have one?)

I'll be 80 September first and as you can see, I'm still cute as a button.

Dear Mark,
I don't think it would be easy to recognise me because I gave up shaving in 1967 and an unkempt beard and moustache hide a lot!
Love,
Anthony

You look much younger than you really are. Congrtas. Is this due to sports, food, non-smoking, or you just have so called Churchill's gene?
