I was going through my pictures, old and new and then realized that I used to crop almost ALL my pictures before I lost any weight. LOL! So just for fun I want to see some hands. Who else is guilty of being a PPC, past picture cropper, and is not anymore?

I'll be the first....

    I'm more of a deleter than a cropper myself!

    cropping, blurring wrinkles darkening shadows for slimmer effect...Taking 5-10 shots maybe more and pickign the most slimming one, refusing to take pictures on really bad days, having mainly face shots of myself and hardly any full body shots of myself, asking people on facebook not to tag me without my approval...Im still doing it.....

    But i hope one day to take Full BOddy Shots and not CROP them ....

    Kudos to you

    Hahaha! I thought I was the only one. I didnt go in and crop them but I would either not take any or take just my face or upper half because my face and upper half look pretty slim. So basically cutting off the parts I thought would make me look fat.

    I'm all of the above...
    Cropper, untagger, avoider, offer to take all group pictures, multiple retakes to get a decent one...

    I'm super unphotogenic, but I do hope that losing some more weight will help!

    Hahaha!!

    I am guilty of cropping!!! I am of the opinion that the camera adds ten pounds!! So I just restore the picture to look more natural by cutting half a boob and hip out!!

    I can't wait to be a past picture cropper but for the meantime I will continue to crop out my wobbly bits to balance out that extra ten pounds the camera cruelly adds!!

    I picnik'd every single picture I got taken of me or cropped it waaaay down. I also am guilty of takign 25 shots before settling for the one where my face looked the slimmest :embarassed:

    Bahahaha too funny! I did that the ENTIRE time I was preggo! Then, when I lost all the baby weight, I wanted to see how much I'd changed by using old photos and comparing them to new ones. Do you know how hard that is when you've cropped ALL your old photos!! haha I found a few, but most pictures that were taken of me during those days got DELETED!

    So yes, I used to be a TOTAL picture cropper!!

    I would crop and photoshop my pics.... Take out the bags under my eyes and whiten the whites of my eyes... remove blemishes, redspots, increase the tan in my skin tone so i wasnt so pasty from never going outside, clone in new sections of hair so i looked like i had more and once i even lengthened my neck to look thinner in pics. Thank goodness for my graphic design skills!!! Now, I dont really need them for my pics though!
