[quote=Anonymous]I have a little story about that. The French Embassy gives us grief every time we renew passports, because they really want people to use the official photo service, and not print out photos at CVS. So the passport lady always sighs when she sees our photos, then says our photos won't be accepted by the computer system, they're too contrasted, not contrasted enough, we're not looking straight at the camera, the face dimensions are off, we look weird, it's all odd, the background isn't the right shade of nothing... and lo and behold, she scans it into the computer, the software accepts it, no prob. But the rigmarole and shaming and guilting is a ritual at this point. DH digs his heels in and now makes it a point of pride to take our photos and get them printed at the CVS. Sigh. [/quote]
