FROM MY PERSONAL FILE: Family on the long couch (safely tagged) Please STOP +tagging your friends faces in facebook! While I am a HUGE fan of the internet, this is an invasion of privacy at a level you are not considering. Face recognition. I always recommend this type (see above photo) for photo tagging for social media sharing. I also like tagging an object in the photo rather than the face. That’ll show em. HOW TO: Load the image in Windows Paint (if you have to) Chose TEXT Label Away!! I got kinda Fancy Pants labeling this one.
