Little Photoshop of Horrors

The photoshop thing has gotten completely out of hand. I would like to see a worldwide model strike that included all of their contracts having anti-photoshop clauses. Let the adverts create their own models digitally (way more time and money than the shoot and enhancement) and see how well the magazines sell with completely fake images in them cause lets face it, that's exactly what we have now. I work in graphic design and the use of digital enhancement in adverts is increasingly abused. Nothing in the magazines are real anymore and honestly I've disgusted to look at them for the last ten years when I started graphic design school and trained my eyes to notice all of the minor changes that are made, but the changes being made recently are anything but minor!

"Real Women Have Curves"

Everyone needs to watch that movie and pay extremely close attention to it's emphasis! Then watch Cher's old 80's flick with Eric Stoltz

"Mask"

And learn to be just a little less shallow cause we are all different, we are all beautiful, and forgive me for quoting Jennifer Love Hewitt but, "If we all looked the same we'd be boring!"

    Hello Derek,

    Yes, real women have curves. Thank you. We are not all skin and bones like death warmed over. I am 5 ft 2 in and weigh 143 lbs. size 12 petite and no flab on this gal. It's all firm and womanly. I stopped trying to diet and get back to 120 lb. when I kept reading weight loss stories of how these women lost 50 lbs. to now be 152 lbs. and are ecstatic at how "thin" they are. Wow, if they can be excited about 152, I should be ok with my 143. I look just as good as they do and they don't look so bad. So women, quit killing yourself over trying to get into thos jean you could last year and go out and buy yourself some new Calvin's a size bigger and go for a walk to firm up those wonderful thighs. Embrace your womanhood. Have a great week end. Fall is in the air. Time to light the fireplace and snuggle.

    Photoshop is a very good and useful tool and it so sad when it is used to deceive.
