The last photoshop YouTube I will ever post (well, maybe the last)



The "before" still gets my vote.

That is hilarious!! I never knew the power of photoshop. I guess you can never trust a photo. Thanks for the demo, Erin.

Happy Wednesday!

Yikes. "After" looks a little off yeah. I sure hope the artist isn't looking for someone that shape.

In other news,

It's official, you're a force of nature baby, lol. ;-)

Steve Jeffery said...

Although in retrospect, that last "lol", typed from the relative comfort of my office in the UK, might be in poor taste considering there are real people in the path of that thing ... good luck and stay safe folks.

Don't worry Steve. It was actually very funny, and I think Erin is a force of nature. But, to be on the safe side, we'll just be sure to laugh at you the next time there's an outbreak of the plague.

I'd take her about a quarter of the way through or is that thru (I am well endowed). O'Brien you linguistic genius, help me out here!!!

Daniel Poehlman said...

Hi right back at you, O'Brien.

SIMON said...

I'd go for her about half way through to be honest!!

Tropical Storm Erin hey?

The "before" definitely looks like more fun. Of course, my wife's 85 lbs, and we always want what we can't have . . .

Talk about "shock and awe."

That PhotoShopper is a mad genius.

It's sad that the majority of men are attracted to the fey little "after" creature. Probably a stripper, who has daddy issues. Looking for a nice guy with a heart of gold, who will take on all her baggage ... and stab him in his sleep.

Sure, my food issues aren't a great alternative, but my husband sleeps well and gets some fine lovin.

Ken Houghton said...

I can't figure out who that "majority" of men are.

But it's nice to see that you can use Photoshop as a replacement for Botox.

Thanks for showing and sharing ;-)

Helen Mansfield said...

Ken,

When I say "majority," I'm not referring to men that visit Erin. Just those hairy knuckled guys littering the AOL chatrooms, talking dirty to strangers.

;o)

Daniel Poehlman said...

Damn. Now I have to shave my knuckles.

country mouse said...

I just don't buy the before photo as realistic either. Her chub doesn't dimple and roll and fold and sag like real fat (ever seen a large woman at a water park?) I'm just sayin . . .

Mongrel Porksword said...

I'd plow her.

Libby Spencer said...

WOW. Well produced piece. I didn't think I'd sit through the music but I find the technics of the process fascinating. It feels like alchemy to a technodope like me.

I have to say it also just raised a question about porksword. I've always kind of impressed by his avatar but now I'm asking myself, is it real, or is it photoshop?

MRasey said...

Amazing. I'm assuming it was an illustrative exercise, else why hire a heavy model? I'll never believe another picture I see.

And re: lack of sagging, dimples etc... there are overweight women who look that good and who are very firm despite their weight. Probably 1%. Same as there are only 1% of thin women who look good enough to model.
