Let's PIP some siblings, eh?

TurtlesAllTheWayDown

Ok, slightly bigger pic of my mom (you can also click on these):




My dad:




Horrible pic of me, but profile of my dad, showing we look nothing alike (no one has ever said we did):




I think you can see how my brother looks like my dad, though.

Dnb, that's just creepy how much you and your dad look alike.

When my brother and I were younger, we looked A LOT alike. We had the same hair color, complexion, were around the same height, and we both resembled our father. We even sounded alike. But when we got older, his hair got darker and he got taller and I think the goatee just distracts from whatever resemblances might still be there:

He's in the background of that second one. You can't see him that well, but it's a funny picture nonetheless.

Let's see if this works.

From my brother's wedding 5 years ago:

Haha yeah I know.  We both have the exact same shade of blue eyes too, which you can't see in that pic.  Its kinda scary to like that much like a man.  So I feel like that means I look like a man.

[QUOTE]In Response to Re: Let's PIP some siblings, eh? : The one all the way on the left is my older sister. We have the same dad: Then the one in the middle, and the tall boy are my half-siblings, their father (And my "dad")  is the man on my left. <strong>Then the little boy is adopted ... so I don't know who he's supposed to look like, but apparently people think he belongs to us, so it works.</strong>

Yeah, he definitely stood out as not looking anything like anyone else in the picture.

Birdie1483

Grrrr, I can't figure out how to paste it from tinypic

[QUOTE]Mery, I think you and your brother have the same eyes/eyebrows ... I don't really see you looking like your mom (Aside from the same hair color, obviously), though.

Too bad we didn't get the same eyelashes. His go on forever. Mine aren't particularly bad, but they're lighter and my MUA said they curl up a lot.

H and his brother, however, are like, from two completely separate families:

H is on the right, his younger half-brother is in the middle, on the left is his younger brother. And I know what you all are thinking, would it have killed H to smile on his wedding day?

Birdie, from photobucket, I saved it to my computer, and then posted the regular way (using the "tree" button below). I've never gotten any "pasting" to work.

Birdie1483

DNB and laura, how are you posting big pictures??

[Deleted User]

This is me with my brother. He is 6 years younger but definitely doesn't look like my 'little' brother.

Beachy730

I upload mine to photobucket, and then copy and paste the actual pic, not the code.  If you click on the pic as a thumbnail it shows up small, but if you open the pic in photobucket then copy and paste it then its bigger.  It actually comes up bigger when I paste but if you click on it the sizing box shows up.

I upload them to shutterfly, open them as large as I can, copy and paste them into the message box, and then resize to something manageable.

I grew up being told I'm my grandfather's clone (Mother's father) ... to me that was extra wrong, because I always saw grandpa as "this old man", meanwhile I'm this little girl ... it was pretty upsetting when I was young. Now I've made some sort of peace with it:


We even do the same "squint" thing with our left eye in photos ... it's just so wrong, lol

Birdie1483

Hmmmmm it seems that TK is secretly trying to tell me something by not allowing me to paste the pictures into the message box

Celles

I can't resist the opportunity to share this one of my little brother:



He grew into a real musician -- his band has played with Ringo Starr, among others. 

Birdie1483

Cute Celles!

Celles

There was no point in posting adult pictures since I was adopted.  With no genetics in common we look nothing alike. 

missy68

Celles, did you see the kid in my picture? Looks a little like his dad, huh? Maybe a little like his great grandfather? (in my sig)

He's adopted. We have no idea who his father is.

MeaghanandMichael

We all look alike. Me, my sister and brother and me and my dad fun thread!

KentuckyKate

Tardy to the party, but here is me and my brother.  No one ever really says we look alike, but I think we do.  Except he has a darker complexion and brown eyes, and I have a lighter complexion and blue eyes (but you can't really tell that in this picture because I have a tan and he doesn't).

vixey

Thanks!  My entire mom's side of the family looks alike, family reunions are nuts.
