This is fun...but probably not a lot more accurate than the average human being at guessing someone's age.

    I've tried it with several different pictures and it keeps telling me that I look 23 or 24.

    I turn 40 in a few weeks. I'll take it! :)

    It has me at 46. I'm 42. How depressing is that?

    It was always within a few years 36 - 46 no matter what picture I used (I'm 41). My 8 yo daughter on the other hand needs to move out as it pegged her at 28 :D

    It got me right at 36 the first try, then it said the same thing for a picture from 4 years ago. Then another pic from 4 years ago it said 24. Of course that is one of the best pictures ever taken of me, even if I am fat in it.

    Interestingly, each of the pictures I used had one of my kids in it. It got my kids ages' right every time.

    That was cool, thanks for posting it.

    What has this got to do with weight loss?

    Surely it'd be better suited for the chitchat board.

    wow it said my 20 year old son and my 44 year old husband were both 31.
    said i was 38 (i'm 44) pegged my 6 year old daughter just perfectly, but i imagine it's easier on children.

    Well some people are using both a before and current picture, so it could have something to do with weight loss and how it changes the way we look.

    Mine said 35. I'm 35.

    I felt so bad for Al Roker when I seen them use this site on the Today show this morning. It said he looks 84!

    It was just for fun! If it's in the wrong place, surely the mods will move it.

    I've had lots of people tell me that I look younger since I've lost weight, but I don't notice the difference until I put pictures side-by-side. This kind of confirms that for me, though obviously it isn't the most accurate tool around.

    I got answers from 16-38. It did guess female every time though so I guess that's something.

    It seems like it might be harder on African-Americans or people of African descent.

    I'm not sure why that would be, but a friend of mine who is in her early 20s gets ages in the 40s when she uses the site. I just tried it with pictures of someone I am dating (Asian and Black) who is 27--this site guesses his age as mid-to-late 30s. At least now I am going to feel slightly less like a creepy old lady when I go out with him. :)

    I used my profile picture. It said 36. I'm 52. Most people think I'm in my early 40's, so they weren't far off. I'll take it.
