Have you seen a truly awful piece of Photoshop work? Clumsy manipulation, senseless comping, lazy cloning and thoughtless retouching are our bread and butter. And yes, deep down, we love Photoshop.
If it is commercial and awful then please let us know! Anonymity can be arranged for the easily embarrassed/canned.
Although I am hopeless at replying to email, be assured that each and every tip is followed up.

That's amazingly bad.
I can do that with my three-jointed arm right now. (It’s amazing what you can do with that Spore creature creator…)
ok where do they find these people, maybe I should change professions.
Wow, that's terrible.
*awaits all the people claiming this isn't a disaster because Beyonce really looks like that, honest...*
OMG!!!!!!!! This one is really awful. One of the worst disasters I´ve seen ever.
It probably costs twice as much to book her hands as well, so they decided to save themselves a bob or two and expertly comp in a cheaper pair!
Now, now. Can't you see that she's got both arms clenched really tight to her torso, and one droopy boob slung over one arm to make it look voluptuous? I mean, isn't it obvious??
MAN... that is so bad, I don't even know what they were thinking! At first glance it's OK... and it would appear that's all the supervisor did.
These people should just use paint or something. Screw the pixelation.
Thats not a disaster, the hand model is just laying down in front of her with arms outstretched holding the product. ... yeah .. thats the ticket ...
Ugh. What makes me mad is that it's the comp that's the screw up. The picture of Beyonce is well done. It's obvious that the hands and bottle were just added over.
I'd go as far as saying that the bottle and hands are different shots; look how perfectly aligned with the camera it is.
I've made better photoshopping with paint. Armani please hire me
That is just freaky.
Famous face with product displayed prominently. I bet most people who see the ad won't even notice.
Well, no one ever said it was HER hands! It's perfectly obvious to me that she's sitting on the face of a hand model!
Not a 'disaster!
;-D
PS: my word verification is "consysta" hee hee
I'm looking for work, and I'm an artist with digital trickery in his portfolio, so seeing these assholes working "professionally" makes my blood boil.
You people are retarded this i not a disaster!!!
Just kidding i wanted to throw out a "not a disaster" line.
But seriously i can't this wasn't caught. Better yet i can't believe that people get paid to approve such things.
Horrible!
I like how they didn't edit out the stuff between the wrists.
The fingers on those hands are freaky, too. Maybe it's just because we don't know whose hands those are.
Plastic man. Er, woman.
Wow. Who knew Beyonce was really Mr. Fantastic? I always thought she wassexy, but I have to say this puts whole new wrinkle on things.
The real question, though, is where are all the people who are continually bitching about the post quality? If you folks actually want to contribute something meaningful, why don't you come on and give some positive comments so Cosmo knows what you like to see?
Weirdly enough, Beyonce does have double-jointed shoulders (there's a really creepy clip of her demonstrating this on Jay Leno's show)...but they go backwards, not forwards.
Oh no, one of Ripley's clones from Alien Resurrection survived.
I almost drowned in the tub when i saw the same ad in cosmo today. In the other ad beyonce was facing forward with the same hands but you still could tell that her arms wasn't that long.
It's hard to believe that with the kind of money involved here, they couldn't even afford to pay a hobbyist 50 bucks to do the job right. I mean, is this supposed to look weird to catch your attention?
I can't even tell what they were trying to do with that. That's disturbing.
That is terrible. I hope whoever did that didn't get paid.
My arms sprout from directly under my breasts, too. I don't see anything wrong here.
Seriously though. I don't care what the deadline was, or how busy the department heads were... This should NEVER have seen the light of day.
Even if those were the only two photos the "designer" (using that term very very loosely, here) had to use there's no excuse for this monstrosity. Crop it or something. The blatant awfulness that spews from this image could have been concealed by any number of cheap tricks so why wasn't it?
there's always plenty of trolls in the comments claiming that the photograph was taken at a funny angle and this blog is consequently dishonest and they're never ever reading it again and they demand a refund-- well let's see anyone defend this!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I don't even dare to use Photoshop because I'd feel embarrassed if my pictures looked like a Kindergarten collage. I guess the people that made that ad doesn't know what being embarrassed is.
i feel bad for the company dat paid a to get this done! hee hee
You don't understand.
The hands are from the lady of the lake, the perfume is Excalibur and Beyonce is King Arthur.
That or the person who made the comp has no idea how humans look like.
And my word is verivel
Another Tyrannosaurus?
aahuauhahuahuhuauha Man I love this blog!!!!!! Is my garanteee of very loud laughs right in the morning ;)
THAT is a true PS disaster.
Oh my god. She became Quasimodo. Poor thing.
It bothers me that the people doing this comp work are probably making 5 times my salary (if not more) as a graphic designer.
Just awful, lazy work.
That designer were watching too much that MTV show "Scarred"
It's like they took a random picture of Beyonce and plopped some model's perfume bottle-holding hands in front of it and hoped no-one would notice.
I just had a great idea for a Star Trek alien.
Lion King
argh what's wrong with her shoulders aaaaaaaaaaahhhh!
Currently out of work.
Who do I send my resume to?
I'm surprised they bothered taking the time to colour match. Thinking about it, with such ineptness they probably over shot the deadline coz it took them so long to do this simple task.
VELOCIRAPTOR ATTAACK
That looks like a very painful deformity. I don't know how that ever got approved.
That's just terrible...I can photoshop better than that and my 50 day trial ran out 3 months ago =|
She's Beyonce, she has people to hold up the products for her, duh.
