| | Posted: | | | | Some new headshots, many of them corrections and additions out of the latest documented BYs and common names... Headshots OnlyThis files includes headshots, which imho are better than the ones included in v11. Why? - better cropping (head only, but the whole head including most of the hair) - better contrast (mostly less technical contrast which allows to recognize detail of the face) - less makeup or role specific applications - as naked as possible (no shades, no beards, no hats, etc.; but glasses if needed) - shorter hair, to see the ears and the hairline - correct birth years (dummies for headshots not availlable, BY overlayed where no other BY needed in the same section - cast/crew) - correct common names (common name overlayed where common name thread is conclusive) Amongst many well documented BYs there are fake BYs are included. For all who are interested in the history of my headshots or the included fake BYs, the above file with the profiles included: Headshots and Profile (includes the source documentation - WARNING: if you restore this file with default options, your data base will be overwritten!) Any feedback welcome... | | | | Complete list of Common Names • A good point for starting with Headshots (and v11.2) |

| | Posted: | | | | For some reason when I click on any of the links the address is as folows:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/watlq8941h7385i/v11_Headshots_full.dpb/file
If I remove the "/file" from the end, the link works.

| | Posted: | | | | File --> Restore Database
Point to the downloaded file
Decide whether you want to fully replace what you have with this file OR go one by one through your headshots to compare
then click OK |

| | Posted: | | | | And because the number of single files grow, a little goodie: a differential update aka. v11.2 Headshots OnlyThis Update accumulates all updates since v.11, mine and all the others, which were contributed to this thread. It replaces v11.1 Of course someone - guess who - had to select the best headshots, if there were more than one version for a person. So, either you fully trust in my taste, or you have to restore the single files spreaded over this thread. The short way to get a fully populated headshot database: Download and import v.11 from the first page, skip the whole thread and download one of the the files linked to this post, import it, ready. As usual: Be prepared amongst many well documented BYs there are fake BYs are included. For all who are interested in the history of headshots or the included fake BYs, here the above headshots with the profiles included: Headshots and Profiles (includes the source documentation - WARNING: if you restore this file with default options, your data base will be deleted!) Any feedback welcome... | | | | Complete list of Common Names • A good point for starting with Headshots (and v11.2) |

| | Posted: | | | | I don't know if there ist any interest, but this post provides my complete headshot database as it is just today... My database includes tons of unpublished - German photos and - Wrestling headshots But the drawback (this is the reason why I won't officially publish theses AddOns): There are also tons of invalid BYs, wrong ones as well as BYs which are simply not needed. Also there are many headshots of mediocre quality included... Everybody importing one of these databases must be aware of the fact, that there rises a reasonable amount work to be done to clean up the database afterwards... As Usual a Headshots Only file and a Headshots and Profiles version which includes the source documentation - WARNING: if you restore the later file with default options, your data base will be deleted!
