What is it with the RTA cameras, The missus had hers done wednsday, and knowing how they turn out, she made an effort to scrub up a bit , "but" it still come out scary, looks like a cross between "lucile ball" & "Dame Edna"
Now while knowing that we all may not be "Oil Paintings" The greatest degradation is "may i obtain a photocopy of your licence please sir" you would think they "RTA" could ace it up a bit . If we had to use licence photos to secure online dating, nobody would get any, KY gel sales would increase,and the need for 400ltr hot water tanks for showers would be nessesary. Just my thoughts for the upcoming weekend. "hi ho hi ho" its off to the shower i go................... hee hee.  :

I got a good one for my license. But my mum rubbed hers when she got it and her face is all warped. It actually looks scary.

I havent seen any photo that looks reasonable, just some not as but ugly as others.
Talks cheap "feathers" & "ef classic" cut out the details of the licence and post the photo and let us be the "judge".........  :

I wouldn't even know where my provisional licence is now. Probably got cut up and thrown out.

Mine isn't that bad.
I always had the theory that when you have your photo taken, if you smile like an idiot it will turn out better. How many times do you look blankly at a camera in your life? Why start now... its only going to look like a mugshot.

But by the same logic, how many times are you going to look happy when you get pulled over and have to show your licence?

My Red P's I looked like had fallen into a vat of boiling water, my skin in the photo was unbelivably red. My current one (green Ps) I look like a homocidal axe murderer. Off Carl Barron "the RTA must have a machine that make you look like a ********" *official voice* "Could I see your ID sir..*shows licence*...Oh...sorry"

Well i hate drivers license photos at the best of times... my P-plate shot made me look like i was chinese. At the time the guys in at VicRoads let me keep my L-Plater photo because they thought it looked better!!!!!!
My current photo isn't bad looks like me which is an added bonus!! lol

In my Learners photo, I looked like a mass murderer. I had the most evil looking smirk on my face. My Probationary licence looked a lot better except I had an incredibly stupid looking grin. My current photo for my full licence isn't that bad though. At least it's better than my boat licence, which probably suits the boating theme by making me look like a scruffy old fisherman.

I've been happy with both of mine, so far. My CHL is much more reflective of the way I look now (except for longer hair now). My DL picture was taken when I was 18.

My learners picture was terrible, but when the friggin' tests at 8am... :P My P's isn't bad, just that I'm smiling like a tool. Think I might have been happy about something... Never have any problems getting into clubs, that's for sure. Just "haha, yep, that's definatly you."
