Official ID’s with un-flattering pictures of you. Do you have one?

HAHA, I have had horrible luck in the past with drivers licenses, permits, school IDs, high school IDs, and passports. Though, now, I'm pretty OK with my license, which I am always showing to buy cigs and to get into the casino and whatnot. lol. My smile is actually pretty legit, and while I was VERY fake-and-bake last summer when I got it, it looks alright. My passport picture.. is pretty hilarious. Wish I could post it up here. I had my hair this blond-ish color and teased (poofed for volume) and it had SO much VOLUME, it made my head look 10 times it's normal size. lol. no lie. Pretty interesting huh. Anyway, thanks for making my work go by so much faster (for posting all of these hilarious and good discussions). Haha. I owe ya one.

Oh yes! My passport picture is really awful as well, probably the ugliest pic ever taken of me. I cringe every time I see it.

Oh yeah, my driver's licence and my college ID are terrible because it was really hot, or they decided to use the first picture I ever took from my permit on my license, and I asked if I could have the picture changed, but that wasn't going to happen.

well it was the photo taken for my school picture. my hair is everywhere, very sweaty and oily haha. I think most students photo's have a look of being lost and such haha.

on my drivers license i look like i've got really big starey eyes,i hate that picture,i get to change it this month as my license runs out in a couple of weeks,hopefully my next picture will be better

Hi bounce. This is a funny discussion. I can sooo relate. My ID with the ugliest picture of mine was taken when I was a freshman in the State University, (U.P.). Up until now, I feel humiliated whenever I stare at my ID picture. It was so unflattering. What's worse, I feel like I don't look like a student in the picture. I look like an old woman. Why, o why does these pictures exist? LOL.

My drivers license photos have always been terrible. Actually there are very few photos of me that I like. I always say that I do not translate into two dimensions well. So amazingly one of the best photos of me ever taken was for a now expired passport. If I ever decide to get work done to look younger that is the photo I will show them.

hi bounce mysenior citizen MVD identification picture was so awful the camera made my white hair look yellow and I was asked to take off my glasses so I was squinting into the camera. totally ugly and not much like the way I look. My debit card picture is a bit better, my hair shows white and I had myglasses on too ; much more like the real me.

Oh yes! I don't know why, but official ID does generally look horrid! I did have one that was great, my driver license when I lived in New Mexico. I was so mad when I had to give it up when I moved back home to Ohio. The worst was a work ID I had taken when I worked as a cook in a psyche facility. Scary! (The photo and the facility!)
