Oh god. If I saw someone who looked like that picture on the right...wait a minute! That looks like Ryan Braun of the Brewers! LOL!

The problem with that picture example is that you can see plain as day that the right one is photo shopped, even without the arrows. I've seen people do a much better job at photo shopping images to the point where you'd actually have to increase the image to at least 100x before you could see the difference in pixels.

But obviously as the article states, your eyes are the key.

^ I just figured that I would post the article up for those that aren't that PS savy as of yet. They might want to verify that the porn they are looking at is Rihanna, Britney, or Beyonce right? Wait, who would believe it is? NM, lol

Oh yeah, I know what you mean. It helps to know when something is real and something is photo shopped....and not just in porn! lol

[why?]

At this point, all pictures are photoshopped unless otherwise mentioned. So many people are so adept at it nowadays.

Is facebook down again? Can't load car town :( My workers are gonna sit all night with nothing to do.

(OK it's not really off topic if you start the thread with a picture of FB's top dog, right? ;-)

Yeah, they do say the first thing you look at in a photoshopped picture is where the light hits and is everything consistent. (for example if the light is hitting the subject from the right side but the rest of the picture indicates the light is coming from the left, then you gotta wonder)
