Thanks for doing this -- it's a start on a great resource.  I question
one of the faces you have posted, however.  The one at 090.jpg looks
to me to be a modified "Cam" face from the Alpha Team series -- see
the whole minifigure at http://home.att.net/~locker99/alpha/cam.htm

Your 090.jpg seems to be this face with the microphone removed, or
are you aware of it being released in another set without the mike?

I was pondering this question recently, and wondered if anyone had already
set out to answer it.  Unable to find any comprehensive collection of
minifig faces already on the web, I decided to make one of my own by
scanning every unique minifig face in my collection:

You're welcome.  I'm glad others will get some use or enjoyment out of it.

You are correct, and this is just the type of thing I thought I might miss.
Like many others, I have a severe dislike for the printed microphone disease
(PMD) that has infected so many minifigs of late, so when I find one, the
first thing I do is whip out my scalpel and apply a quick "cure".  @8^)

I will make the correction, adding "mod" to my scan of 090.jpg.

Thanks!
