It sounds fascinating, but I can't get it to work.
It worked once for me yesterday, comparing two people, but now the site keeps saying my session's expired after only a couple of minutes, and then won't let me back in again. |

do the photos remain on familysearch or can they be deleted? I'm not keen on putting my photo out there.

Answering my own question I can't see a way to delete and you have to click that anyone can see the photos and familysearch can use them forever.

Toni, once you've uploaded a photo there is an option to delete. I've not added photos to a tree or given names to anyone so even if I left them on there I don't know that there's a problem?

https://www.familysearch.org/legal/f...sion-agreement There is an option to delete photos, so presumably after deletion they can't be used, but it doesn't actually say so. The upload guidelines are quite something. No photos of nudity (fair enough), cross-dressing or kissing on the lips (!), and your uploaded content must be (among other things) Quote:

Anyway, I've been playing with it, but I don't honestly think it's very good.
After some very poor results with photos of various members of my family (e.g. my great-grandmother had a higher match with one of her husbands, born in a different country from her, than with her brother), I eventually tried comparing myself with my son (the only person in my tree whose parentage I can be 100% sure about ). The photo of him I uploaded had a poster of the Blues Brothers just behind and above him, which the software treated as another photo. I had a 22% match with the Blues Brothers and only 16% with my son... |

Hahaha! Better not upload my cross-eyed ancestor then, if the photos are meant to be uplifting. OC |

For example, I uploaded a photo of my gg grandmother when she was about 60. I also uploaded a wedding photograph where she was a guest (aged about 40). Software correctly identified her, and then the people who had the highest percentage match all had a much higher percentage than the other people on the photo. I know the people she had the highest matches with were her three daughters, her son, and her sister. |

That's interesting; to be fair the quality of my photos wasn't all that great.
And I've just realised that in the photo of me that matched the Blues Brothers, I was wearing dark glasses |
