Cantik = simetri ?

A person can be beautiful or ugly for any number of reasons, let’s define “beauty” as a well-formed, symmetrical face. Numerous studies suggest that people tend to prefer symmetrical faces to more imperfect ones.

Tapi benarkah wajah yang simetris itu pasti cantik? jawabannya belum tentu!, cobalah buktikan dengan cara dibawah ini:

Step 1 Open any type of "Paint" Program or graphics program (such as Adobe Photoshop, or Microsoft Paint Pro 7)

Step 2 Go to FILE, then OPEN and click a "straight on" photo of yourself

Step 3 You should now have a photo of yourself in view

Step 4 Click on the CROP TOOL (the dashed box)

Step 5 Use the mouse to bisect your face by drawing a rectangle around the right side of your face EXACTLY through the middle of your face. Make sure that you go from the very top of the picture to the very bottom.

Step 6 After you have placed the triangle where it should be - click IMAGE, then click CROP.

Step 7 Save as "facialsymmetry_right"

Step 8 Make a copy of "facialsymmetry_right", hit the "flip horizontal" button to make a *left* mirror image of the right side of your face and save it as "facialsymmetry_right2"

Step 9 Repeat Steps 5 through 8 for the LEFT side of your face but of course save it as "facialsymmetry_left" and "facialsymmetry_left2"

Step 10 Place these images next to one another in either the Paint Program and either "save as" or place it in a document next to one another. Compare your left and right mirror images to a "normal", unaltered photo. Determine which image you like better and why? Notice that you will either like one side or the other or NONE at all and only your asymmetries will look good together as a whole.
