Tunika: Your Trunk Is Showing



Often pictures are
excessively photoshopped.
This one: not enough.

Original is here. Thanks to Mannisen!

Update:
They noticed the attention and edited the original. Also, Fark mysteriously happened to find it just after we did.

Smile for the camera baby, yeah! Don't worry about the shark. Smile yeah the camera loves you baby, yeah, lean a bit darling, nah the sharks going away. What it bit your leg off? Really? Well lets try doing something with a surfboard, hope nobody notices. Lovely.

Thanks to Jason! Original is here.

Gini: Veni, Vidi, Ridi


Gini, which is some sort of hormone-laden Euro-soda, plays fast and loose with the Shop. To be frank I was in danger of running out of red circles.

Thanks to t! Original is here [warning: suicide-inducing Flash site of the yip-yip-yip little dog migraine variety]

Edit: Image is apparently by Pablo Vicente Photography, who are (unsuccessfully) demanding that we take it down.

Kona Bikes: It's Spoking Me Out!


Is there some weird connection between cutouts and mountain bikes? The hilarious thing is that Kona spends every breathless word banging on about their high tech technology techniques.

Props to Gordon! Original is here!

GAIAM: Of Course It Doesn't Always Obey Gravity, It's An Occasional Table


To be frank, you have to admire the sheer lack of concern here. It's as if the designer thought: well, it's a foot or so off; no one will notice.

Thanks to Kristy! Original is here!

Wired: Laptop For Coneheads


Wired Gadget Labs blog is one of those "please-let-us-rewrite-your-press-release" kind of sites, so it's quite possible this is Fujitsu's fault.

PowerSox: You May Feel A Slight Pinch


I've just received email from Mr Anonymous, who works at PowerSox promising that it isn't Photoshopped, that her leg really is like that and that I'm an idiot and I should shut down the blog.

Original is here. Thanks to MS!

Google Maps: Unusually Similar Trees = Black Helicopters


I'm sure there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for Google Maps getting all clone-happy in this part of Holland. It's probably just a secret alien landing site or something.

The whole area is full of Photoshopped artefacts. Theories welcome. Thanks to MK!

L'Oreal: Oops With The Levels


Left: before L'Oreal, right: after.

The great thing about L'Oreal's caucasianizing and plasticizing of Beyonce is the way that they will probably proudly point to it as an example of their inclusiveness and general political correctness.

TMZ started the ball rolling; the NY Post weighs in here.

Thanks to everyone who sent this in, especially SW and Sioned!

Dollar Bin: Finally Famous!


Jennifer Anniston is the new face of Huaxing Classic Socks. The Fujian Province company, which prefers to be anonymous, clinched the deal by pressing the 'command' and 'V' keys at the same time.

Thanks to Adrian P and Matt Barcomb!

Mad Men: Mad Scaling


So there's this show on AMC called Mad Men. It's great. I haven't seen it, but I understand that it's about this ad agency in the 1960s that is entirely staffed by people with growth disorders. All of the stories are about how people of radically different heights - pygmies, amazons, dwarves, giants - can somehow work together. It's fantastic (probably)!

Thanks to Bobby, Chris, Andy, Jennifer and Sue!

Carmichael Training: Tttrrrrrrainright!


If you hated your gym teacher at school, you'll enjoy this.

Carmichael Training not only makes a pig's ear of its cutouts, but also misspells its own URL, which is subsequently registered in order to maliciously ridicule them build team spirit!

Thanks to everyone who sent this in! More coverage at Sticky Wicket!

AP: Behind You!!!!!


Tim Donaghy won't meet with NBA's investigator because he has a hand growing out of his neck. Duh.

I'd love to hear AP's explanation for this one. Original here. Thanks to Anthony!

J Crew: Does This Make My Cutout Look Fat?


Fixing up a picture, trimming a little material, making it pretty, are all perfectly acceptable things to do with Photoshop. On the other hand, you might not want to put the original right next to the shopped copy. Kind of self-defeating.

Rollover the first two images here for instant gratification. Thanks to Bradford!
