    Because I'm worth it!

    Photo shopping pisses me off tbh. I can not 'enjoy' a photo of a woman, no matter how stunning she is, because of photoshop. Although it's funny when they get it wrong, such as to many hands, or a 3 foot neck
    Google photoshop disasters :)

    Glad I'm quite alright at photoshop tbh. No one knows about the HORRIBLE acne. Oh sheet.


    Funny video though! I like the accent on Adobé.

    A step up from that I find it amazing how many people I know who photoshop their social media pictures. For real! It's the next step on from the head-tilt and the trout-pout (you know the ones - you have one friend who throws the same pose every time they see a camera, tilting their dead like a curious puppy or putting the trout pout out there). Now they take posed pics and tidy them with photoshop - it used to be just redeye removal, now it's hiding blemishes and whitening up teeth and so on...

    Do regular people actually do that The Sweeper? :eek:

    Very clever video!

    :eek: And here's me taking 25 pics and hoping one looks fairly decent, duh!

    Next time I see someones new pic appear and they look really uber-well, I'm going to be really suspicious now! :pac:

    I honestly have a girl on FB who did a two-week Photoshop course for this very reason.

    She wanted to make sure all the uploaded pictures of her looked perfect, even going so far as to de-tag and often fix up a picture of her from a night out on friends walls.

    Other people taking pictures of you and putting them straight up on facebook- the photoshopper's nightmare!! :D :eek:

    Ha this is brilliant! Most stars are gorgeous anyway, I'd have much more interest in seeing a famous lady who has a few pores and imperfections but makes herself look lovely than see something which must even make the celebs themselves go 'I can't live up to that picture in real life!'

    Example I saw on Daily Mail website during the week, Britney just looks odd.....

    It looks like she wasn't there, they just took some other photo of her and pasted it in.

    The lighting on her is very different to the other people in the photo

    That Britney Spears one looks weird. It looks like the shape of her face has changed.

    Now I pretty much despise all things Kardashian but there is very little wrong with the picture on the left. Yeah her bum is bigger and theres a touch of cellulite but so what?!

    There's a noticeable difference between her right arm and side boob and her waist has been tucked in.
    Her face is almost the exact same but her hairline has been changed.

    Yeah I can see all that. The point is, why bother?! There isn't that massive a difference between how she looks really and how they've airbrushed her so why bother doing it in the first place. Personally I'd much rather see someone on the cover of a magazine that doesn't have skin that looks like it's been sandpapered into oblivion.

    Ya gotta laugh though, its like why are you freaking out, thats er kind of how you look..

    But I must say no one likes that arse hat at a party sitting on the ground because there are no seats left taking photos of people that is an angle no one should be seen at ;)
