Eh. It's a bit creepy. I think it's because they all (but one) have open-mouth smiles. Also, they're (almost) all looking at us.
I like the blonde, she has a Mona Lisa thing going on. Anyone know what congregation she's in?

How can you be happy when you attend Meetings filled with unhappy people? They are going to quote outside sources because they have no inductive or reliable sources from JWs that demonstrate how "you can be happy". One of the sisters was a JW counselor, before she died I was with another brother reading scriptures to her, she said "Why are so many Witnesses miserable, why don't any of them know how to find joy? I am sad I am going to die because there is so much work to do! I feel like all my patients will die without me!"
She was one of the only therapist the Elders did not frown upon in the 1970s-1980s because she was so pro-JW and Die-Hard Watchtower. She worked as a trained therapist for almost seventy years and she worried about "all the miserble JWs", so I ask you, how can the Watchtower speak about Happiness?

Only JWs and serial killers can make smiling appear slighlty sinister.
The reason for their smiles?
They are all thinking "you're all going to be toast very, very soon now...mwahhaha"

No creepier than any other picture the WT has used in the past. I do agree the smiles all looked like they are forced/pasted on.

To be honest, I hate smiling when posing for a picture. It's all fake. I've ruined so many pictures because I can't do it. Kudos to them

the blonde's smile and dark circles under her eyes screams: "I suffer from chronic fatigue syndrome brought on by the stress from family pressure to pioneer and...I cut myself"

Not creepy but really cheesey. Canned smiles. "Everyone look at the camera and say 'cheeese' "
The smirking girl in the middle just dropped a silent, deadly one and the guy behind is actually gagging.
