I'd love a chance to play with this sort of application, for instance finding out if my parents' hypothetical child looks anything like any of their actual five children. Is there anything like this available online for free? post:ask.metafilter.com,2009:site.123716 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 15:58:14 -0800 orange swan photo photoimaging children predictingchildren technology http://ask.metafilter.com/123716/Like-a-magic-eight-ball-for-babies#1767924 Maybe <a href="http://www.makemebabies.com/">this</a>? comment:ask.metafilter.com,2009:site.123716-1767924 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 16:07:45 -0800 neurodoc http://ask.metafilter.com/123716/Like-a-magic-eight-ball-for-babies#1767933 How about the <a href="http://celebrity.myheritage.com/FP/Company/look-alike-meter.php">look-a-like meter at myheritage.com</a>?<br> <br> <em>And Hi, how've you been!?</em> comment:ask.metafilter.com,2009:site.123716-1767933 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 16:18:43 -0800 goml http://ask.metafilter.com/123716/Like-a-magic-eight-ball-for-babies#1767940 I think this is also common as a booth in various malls, shopping centers, and amusement parks. <br> <br> The really basic software would just morph two baby pictures, seeing as there's no need for "age regression" or whatnot. In which case, any "morphing" software would do. Otherwise, things get a bit fancier. <a href="http://www.luxand.com/babymaker/">Here is BabyMaker</a>, a Windows program, and the only program I've seen that is specifically for making a baby face from adult pictures. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2009:site.123716-1767940 Tue, 02 Jun 2009 16:24:14 -0800 filthy light thief http://ask.metafilter.com/123716/Like-a-magic-eight-ball-for-babies#1767949 Heh, you wanted an online program. In that case, neurodoc has one of a few sites (<a href="http://www.moonjee.com/action/baby.php">another</a>, and <a href="http://www.vw.com/vwhype/babymaker/en/us/">another</a>).
