Dear all,
As promised the FaceNet website is now finally ready - you can follow the link below to create your own research profile and browse those of others:
www.face-net.org
We've checked it pretty throughly and all seems to be in working order, but any teething problems that occur please let me know and we'll sort it out ASAP. If anyone has any suggestions for keywords that describe their area of research which are not covered already, please also let me know and I can add these.
Best wishes,
Sarah

Dear all, I've been doing a bit of work on the PICS database, http://pics.stir.ac.uk. I've added some more face sets and hope to have some 3d images available by the end of the summer. I'll also add to the 'other databases' list, especially if you tell me about yours!
Now, I'm sure many of you have collections of faces that would be of great benefit to the community but are hidden away. So, if you have images that you could make available but haven't got round to, now is the time to zip them up and I'll put them on the server here, with due acknowledgement. I haven't yet sorted downloading with permission only, but hope to do so. Therefore, if you have images that you are prepared to make available only to vetted researchers, let me know and we'll see what can be done.
