'Yearbook' Site Offers Instant Retro Makeovers

by Will Safer on August 18, 2008 at 05:10 PM



If you've got a self-portrait handy on your computer, we say head on over to yearbookyourself.com for a little retro imaging fun.

Were you born in the '90s, but have an inexplicable desire to see what you might have looked like during the '60s? Yes, the site may be a thinly-veiled marketing ploy by a mall chain, but that didn't stop us from trying on the virtual hairdos and outfits available on the time warp-like site. After uploading your image, the site lets you see yourself in yearbook-like photos that digitally send you as far back as 1950 and bring you all the way through to 2000.

For every two years along the way you get a new photo, a new hairdo, a new muzaq version of an unidentifiable hit of the era, plus a little trivia and links to your favorite stores from a local mall. Someone, somewhere out there, is bound to be very satisfied by this. [From The Bristol Press.]
