Imagine just looking at someone's profile, you can tell then and there if they're attractive or not..the other side of the face won't make a big difference.

Stop being a troll. I think you know exactly what the OP is saying. Experts say that "generally" we perceive symmetry as beautiful and the more points or degrees of symmetry, the better. That is not to say to be beautiful you have to have a perfectly symmetrical face or vice versa.

Why is everyones...well most...pictures all narrow when they do the mirror. Doing a mirror image shouldn't make them narrow.

They have to be looking straight at the camera. Even the slightest angle will produce that effect. Go to my post and look at the pics of me (angled) vs. the pics of my dog (straight).
