This whole thread is both amusing and horrifying. I use Photoshop too, but I use to to digitally paint from scratch. I'm actually spending a lot of time learning to add in pores/hairs/veins to make them more real, instead of leaving my drawings too smooth and fake looking.
I don't blame the tool, but the "beauty" industry sucks.0 -

#7 the compilation photo.
Look for heavily shopped images that look normal enough, but you don't know why it seems "off" You'll notice here, a mysterious floating head, also her wrist seems a little odd doesn't it?
The second image is from the same photo shoot. They first turned her white shirt lavender, and the babies shirt white. Now you can see it don't you?
The magazine cover is actually, from what I can tell at least 4 different photos compiled together. Notice her hands are the exact same, but the baby is different (and his head is floating). Her head from a different photo than the body. Not to mention the heavy work done on her "drop that baby weight" body. I think it's just terrible the pressure they put on new moms just to sell magazines.
I'm going to take off for the night, but I can keep finding them if it looks like the conversation shows enough interest, i don't want to bug the MFP world lol
I think I read somewhere that the Kardashian Christmas photo is done that way. They are all so busy that they can't get together so they photoshop everyone in. Take a look at one of them and it is pretty obvious.

Lol, yeah, it looks like there's at least 3 different light sources - none of them conflicting on any single person, of course!0 -
Great thread!
I trained in graphic design before I became a hairdresser so I can also spot the photoshopping in many images. Especially now I work in a fashion industry, I find the hair magazines and fashion books we look through so painful to look at, the high fashion ones are the worst!0 -
Thanks for a wonderful thread! Feeling MUCH better about pics of myself!0

And not ONE of them is smiling. Merry Christmas.0 -
Tagging to follow. Thanks for this! This is great insight into just how much the images are manipulated.0

That's called botox.0 -
#2 Amazing detail on eyes and lips, but no pores? This GA was good because they knew to leave some detail on the skin in, that is the small hairs in the shadow, but around the nose and cheek area she is missing all of her pores - the poor girl.
Also, the girl does have amazing blue eyes, but those were not only "popped" they were shopped to look even deeper. Google her real eyes for a comparison.
Love it...thanks!0 -

As a new mom, thank you for pointing this one out. She looked fantastic in the unshopped pic and the baby was resting on her body.0 -
