In case you are wondering, The Daily Mail is a UK mid-market tabloid, and not, despite all the evidence, your mom playing with Microsoft Paint for the first time.

bloody hell, that is horrid, and i am not talking about the permanent damage to her eyes.
Heheh quoting The simpsons is my favorite thing to do!... And take a look at that PS job! JESUS CHRIST.. what happened??
Who cares about the damage to her SKIN?! If it were me, I'd worry a little more about the strange repeating patterns on my neck that merge into my pullover!
My God! Surely no amount of tanning can cause THAT
What intrigues me most is not the disaster per se but the reason to make it.
I mean, What was so wrong in the original picture that it needed correction?
Was it something so awful that what we are looking now is an improvement?
WV: SCREMI. What happens to your eyes when you see this PSD, they scremi for helpi.
Beware the Klingon-neck!
C'MON
Hahahaha. Ha. That's bad. Someone read The Daily Mail. And more fool her for thinking she'd be immune to damage.
she does not look 22, either.
The quote is "The goggles do nothing" not "The goggles, they do nothing." And if she's really 22 then that skin damage is quite severe.
Her necklace defies gravity!
Warning: Sunbeds can seriously blur your hair and knitwear, break jewellery and cause alligator-neck.
@saurio, the picture wasn't tall enough. everything south of that point was "fixed."
@salzano then how did they do such a good job on the blinds and then botch everything else so horribly?
Ah I know, it's a new drinking game... Clone Stamp, Shot, Clone Stamp, Shot, Clone Stamp, Shot...
WV: Bilisti - what my boss would go if I ever brought something this bad to her.
I think someone got a little too excited about the rubber stamp.
She seems to have a spacial anomaly on her neck, call engineering now!
I think the original picture ended just below her chin. For some reason the powers that be decided that there needed to be more picture below, so they brought in an expert to use expert PS skills and recreate what was not in the picture. I could have done better with a pen tool. Geeesh!
After seeing the shit job they did here who's to say that that light rings around her eyes are real, cos they were clearly focusing on something else other than her neckline so much that they didn't finish it. :D
That girl is only 22? I thought she was in her late 30's...
I don't know which is funnier, here misfortune or the PSD failure on the Fail's part.
Now THIS qualifies as a Photoshop Disaster!
Bloody hell! She looks like a klingon...
the goggles do nothing?? so the tan-less rings around her eyes are just me imagining things. Doesn't take a ten year old to figure out that lying in UV rays to look good, well, it isn't such a swell idea. And yes she does look 30. This should be a pic for a cancer campaign. or boss eyed awareness week.
What's the grey right angle top left (as we look) on her forehead.?
And the strand of hair that actually goes behind the blinds ?
Photoshop disaster? This is PS Catastrophe! And to do so to a damaged woman, all the worst!
@JR "good job on the blinds"? The damn thing bends like it's near a black hole!
VR: press
It's really indicative of the overall standard of the Daily Mail.
Hey, now...that's not fair at all. We all know MS Paint doesn't have a decent clone stamp tool. Try being a little more considerate of MS Paint's feelings in the future.
A real tragedy is a 22-year old with the neck wrinkles of a person three times her age.
vw: scron, which is the past pluperfect of "screw" which is what the Daily Mail did with this image.
Now that's what I'm talking about ... some nasty nasty nasty cloning.
That's gotta be a 2 min job, tops.
Isn't that Lily Allen? If it is, no disaster here.
PSD aside, I sense a new tanning trend...panda eyes!
this has got to be the worst thing i've seen on here in a while.
The bad photoshoppong of the neck confuses me only slightly less than her 'malady'.
I once went to a tanning salon (it was gift! I only went once, I swear!), and the goggles given to tanners are tiny little things not much bigger than each eye socket. Most of the area supposedly affected on this chick is skin that all tanning-bed users expose whether they wear goggles, or not.
This makes no effing sense.
If you read the story, she says she never wore goggles. The white marks around here eyes and on her neck appeared suddenly.
The pasted-on sweater and hair extensions courtesy of the clone tool happened later.
As for the L stamped on her forehead, I have no idea.
wv: vuluou a word too good to waste
The "L"on the forehead is clearly dirt on the sensor of the camera.
WV: unreed - well, indeed
At first I read: The Googles They Do Nothing.
On the other hand...
The 'artist' probably was on a tihght schedule but wanted to do a pro fix anyways, then his 20 minutes ran out and the image got published in its present condition.
Poor bastard!

@morgedoid
I could of done a Pro job in 20 minutes, and im not even technically a manipulator, but a designer. This ones a pretty simple job, and wouldnt have to be done perfectly to be passable, or at least not noticable.
So assuming they hire professionals (which they dont as it happens), you'd have to make a real effort to bodge this job. However what I actually suspect is they let some clown loose with the clone tool that shouldn't even be using a computer, let alone photoshop.
Newspaper/weekly magazine photoshop work makes me feel sick.
Hmm, I don't see a PsD here. Clearly too much time in the sunbed not only damaged her skin, it melted her sweater and necklace, which then fused with her skin.
Besides the horrid PS job, and skin discoloration, if that is how hold you will look after all that time in a tanning bed... I'm happy I can't use one... She looks 35! But come on? Do people REALLY believe this looks good? Or was this the "idea" submitted for print and not the final version?
wtf did they do at the neckline??? and why?
oooh the VW is great. "redfati." Weight Watchers day at the beach! AHAHAHAHAHA
"could have" NOT "could of"
So, my little whyners...
Can your girlfrien do that?
Or is it only a matter of perspective?
... Right in the kisser.
My first thought was that maybe there was something around her neck that they weren't willing/allowed to show (like a necklace with a designer logo or something that would cause trademark issues or whatever the hell they have to consider). But it looks like everything below her neck has been drawn in. So either like, she had a lot of clevage showing, the camera angle showed a lot of boob, she had an "offensive" necklace/shirt on under the wool thing, or the picture ended at her chin and they drew the rest in.
But the blinds look too good, especially compared to the rest of the hatchet job. I can't see the person who did the neck managing to do the blinds.
The article said that she had been tanning three times a week for SEVEN YEARS with no eye protection. It also said that she had some white lines on her neck that faded into one big white patch over time.
My guess is that the natural picture did not show this, so they drew it in. Badly.
Either that, or tanning that overmuch causes PSD. Who knew.
WV: boisha As in, boisha sure screwed that up!
I didn't know tanning beds caused your sweater to fuse to your skin... so THAT'S why it's always so hard to pull my shirt off after I've gone tanning! This magazine has been so enlightening.
Virginia...
Naw, it was shot with a wide angle lens.
@ Me;
The bottom four blades of the blind have simply been copied 'n' pasted from the middle.
Awww, they've changed the picture in the Daily Mail website. Probably NOW it's the original (cropped) one. And it doesn't hurt my eyes anymore.
haha, they've gone back and fixed it on the daily mail site now.
oh my.... melt faces
Really, don't these people see what they are doing?
@ The Sophisticate's Diary
Her jewelry is not broken. I make jewelry for a living and that is a necklace made of memory wire, base metal surrounded by hardened iron that comes in a coil, and, if bent out of shape, will snap back into place. It requires no clasp.
/knowledge
WV: hypec
Is it just me, or does the original one look more... normal-ish?
girl must be a cheff.... in a green veg restaurant...
They cropped the original :-(
If you go to the original they've cropped it (and seemingly darkened it) now
Don't be silly, MS Paint doesn't have a clone tool!
they would have been better off using the smaller image. idk what is so important about there being SHOULDERS in a fucking headshot.
also, see kids? this is why you should stay the fuck out of sunbeds. she looks twice as old as it says she is.
