I scored 28. I've read a couple of books on body language, so I'm not *too* bad at that kind of thing. :-)

Oops. I forgot to mention that I am female and 27.
I got 23, but for most of the pictures none of the options really seemed to fit so I guessed.
Most of the people just seemed to look like catalogue models who had been told to show certain expressions, or fake it in other words.
Does that make sense?
Oh, I'm 25 by the way, and probably an Aspie (awaiting official diagnosis).
The fact I think all the photos look faked is probably down to my generally suspicious nature. I have been fooled by too many people, so now I tend to think EVERYONE who I don't know well has a hidden agenda.
at the first test I only scored 16 but maybe that is also because I was too lazy too look up the word I wasnt sure of what they mean..
Ive got 44% at the other test,... I mistook paul mc cartney for elvis *d'oh' Well normally theres all the hair cut around one person isnt it?
and yet ont he other test(with non famous faces I hav 74%
Oh, I see the tests you mean. I did pretty well on those. I got 94%. I don't think I have any problems with face recognition. There were a few people I knew all about but hadn't seen pictures of, like Margaret Thatcher. I said I wasn't familiar with them because I knew I'd never or rarely seen their faces before. I don't watch much TV.
Does eyebrows in a "V" shape mean anger?
That's the usual wisdom, but I find it isn't really true most of the time. When people are mad they get wide-eyed, and sometimes their face goes red or they get a little bit of a sneer in their lips like they want to bare their teeth.
Sometimes it's true though; some people's eyebrows get knotted into a "v" when they're irritated. But *usually* when a person gets a "v" wrinkled into their forehead, it's because they're confused, hurt, sad, worried or scared.
I'm male, 17 and I scored 22, I took time to analyse each set of eyes and I found it easier as I got further into the test. I'm not sure If I should have choosen what jumped to mind or not because It's easy to judge people logically when you have to do it all the time.
25 on the test and honestly, that was random luck. Many of them I thought had zero expression. It was jus a face and it was blank. But.. the test required you pick one. Sometimes I thought I DID know right off what the eyes said, but what I thought wasn't one of the choices they offered. Then I pondered and just didn't see how any of the 4 choices matched, so again, random picking.
That is the problem with how tests are constructed. (sigh)
I took a test on identifying faces they had shown you before. There was no button for "I have no clue." So I just pressed "no" button for every one and got something like 60% right.
I'm 40-something
There's a much better set of tests here:
http://www.icn.ucl.ac.uk/facetests/myabilities.php
There are several, including ones that have shoes or cars so you can tell if it is an object recognition problem or specific to faces. (Although since faces are more subtle and more complex in one go, I guess being worse at faces than cars can still be due to visual processing problems)
I missed only one shoe and got 100% of the cars. Yay me! 
Already knew I was faceblind so... oh well 
Yeah I read it, thats why I said "That's very AS like isn't it?". I don't feel like I have the symptoms severe enough to be diagnosed with it but what do I actually know? I'm surprised even though I don't look it.
What's that got to do with it?
