British #monarchy rocked by bad #Photoshop job / Someone appears to be indulging in the arts of #Adobe poorly. And that someone is the #princess, herself.

Prior to Middleton’s admission, the photo raised some questions. It was certainly possible that it was just a shitty Photoshop used to stitch together several photos so that the best expression on each person’s face was used. (Children are notorious for being difficult to photograph.) But the job is so clumsy, particularly around the hands, that one had to wonder if the intent was to keep us all talking about Middleton’s prolonged absence.

Very scary, and NOT a good thing.

Good #ai #photoshop artists have been able to fake just about anything for quite a few years now. But this new development means that anyone, anywhere, regardless of skill, will soon be able to fake anything at all, and maybe very convincingly too. The days of reliable #photo #evidence may be reaching their #end.

Disgusting people using the Iranian activists image for their propaganda.

The image is disgustingly photoshopped and bedn shared by 1000of idiots claiming his life is in danger

Arash Sadeghi has been fighting the IRI regime for years and his health has deteriorated since his last hunger strike.

But using such ridiculously amator image manipulation to make it like he is on a hospital is just infuriating.

These jerks only help the regime use these images and posts as proof of the global miss information against them and hide their criminal actions.

Adobe plans to make Photoshop on the web free to everyone – Does it mean it will finally run on Linux too?

Bild/Foto
The company is now testing the free version in Canada, where users are able to access Photoshop on the web through a free Adobe account. Adobe describes the service as “freemium” and eventually plans to gate off some features that will be exclusive to paying subscribers. Enough tools will be freely available to perform what Adobe considers to be Photoshop’s core functions.

The question of course will be how useful the core features will be. We do have open source cross-platform GIMP, which is really powerful (and very likely more so than Photoshop’s web product), but GIMP is still a difficult UI can casual users (once you use it very often I imagine you’d know exactly what is where).

So yes, Photoshop follows Microsoft Office then in exposing young children to getting used to a product they’ll probably have to pay for later on if they want to progress a bit further with it. I’d really prefer that schools teach the principles of the various products on completely free and open source software, and apart from the freedoms of use, so that they are familiar with there being alternatives, and so that schools themselves don’t get locked into a specific proprietary product.
