Photoshop Disasters

[PepperElf]

Ok this is funny.


http://www.psdisasters.com/ - apparently they repost badly photoshopped images that were actually used for professional media.

Some of them are actually pretty good but then some are so clearly faked that you start wondering the sanity of whomever approved the final copy.


Good example: daily mall and the magical twin. some photographer was copied (I think the one on the right is the real one) and then duplicated on the left, with no effort in making the background behind his legs actually match the rest of the background.

jcp and the man's extra finger apparently they fixed the ad but the original had the man's right index finger hanging out between his legs. wonder if the artist got fired for that one...

Ann Taylor leg displacement
They tried to make it look like the model is crossing her feet under the dress with her left leg leg in front and the right in back. until you look at her toes (big toes are inside) which means her feet AREN'T crossed. holy magical foot displacement

Nope, the one on the left is the real one and there's two big giveaways:

1) the one on the left is actually sitting on the bench, the one on the right is sitting in front of it in midair.

2) The guy off to the left and behind behind the right hand one (going from left to right) changes from a black man wearing a leather coat to a white man wearing a suede blazer.

There's also the more minor bit of the clone's arm overlapping the arm of the girl he's sitting beside with no shadow.

along the same lines is this youtube faux ad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_vVUIYOmJM

o you're right.

i was going off of how much they reproduced in the back. pretty silly though - i wonder who they wanted to cut out

Could have been no one and it was put in as a filler. It's not an uncommon tactic in still and motion pictures. One director for example took a group of roughly a hundred extras and made a crowd of thousands with some creative filming tactics.
