It's got to be a joke. I mean, look at their "testimonials" page.

Quote:
"At first we were worried that Janine was too young to get married, but then her new husband bought her a house and a car and jewelry and the money we got let us buy a house for ourselves. Getting out of the trailer park at our age was the best thing that ever happened to us, and it’s all thanks to Marry Our Daughter!"
Quote:
“Our 15 year old daughter Mary wasn’t very popular and did nothing but mope around the house bringing everybody down, so we decided to marry her off through your site. Now our house is a lot cheerier and we love our new swimming pool and Jaccuzi! We’ve told our youngest that when she turns 15 we’re going to marry her off too!"
If nothing else, the people using this site wouldn't all have perfect spelling and grammar.

What is the face of London, New York, Paris? What does a Londoner, a New Yorker, a Parisian look like?

The Face of Tomorrow is a concept for a series of photographs that addresses the effects of globalization on identity.

The comic portion WAS funny in contrast to the text part which was informational. I had not ever seen anything like it.

Those Annie leibovitz photographs I found intriguing for some reason. Not my style but they drew me in.

More photos. I guess I'm hooked on them.

These are very good animal shots. ( remember to use the 'shuffle' tab )

There's something about broken ceramics.

Still Life
Interview by Rosecrans Baldwin
Martin Klimas destroys a lot of clay to make his art. Combining the silence of Eadweard Muybridge’s horse pictures with the association-rich composition of a still life, Klimas breaks recognizable objects so they become something else, and stops us just at the moment of transformation.
