Just seen this re History extra. Sounds like fun. I looked a bit like Queen Victoria when I got married re Victorian style dress and being so short. Wonder what I would look like re this? Will have to find suitable photo and give it a go.

I cant get my photo small enough to fit the circle thing
I need help cause i must be doing something wrong with it redf)

You need to move the dots in the corners to make your picture fit into the oval.

Try moving them about and you will see picture changes in size. Once you fit your picture in oval click dress me and then save, then you can click again on the picture and save to download. Pictures with low necklines work better.

I just made Dad Henry 8th and Mum Elizabeth 1 and emailed it to them.
Im sure they will be impressed :2fun::2fun::2fun:

Noticed a common thread with the men. They were all actually bald. The royal family have had baldness in their line for some time. The reason that Henry V111 always wore big hats as he got older and Charles wore a wig and presumably why the Georgians did.

Ok here i am.

 

[duckweed]

You look better as Queen Bess than I do.

Not sure Napoleon works with a tache but neither would Charles or Henry V111.
