photoshopped

Photoshop is an art form that takes practice. Not everyone will get it right on the first try, or possibly even on the second or third. Subtlety is the key to a successfully photoshopped image, and the edits should be hardly or not at all noticeable. Unfortunately for the people who photoshopped these images, editing is a skill they have yet to learn. From giving themselves perfectly flawless skin to unrealistic waist dimensions, check out below how colossally they failed when it came to photoshopping these images.

Instagram is rife with people photoshopping their photos to ridiculously unattainable levels of beauty. Sometimes, the edits are subtle, and other times they are less so. I would argue that the pictures containing slight edits do more damage than those that are so obviously photoshopped because they portray a somewhat believable illusion of perfection. But the ones that are so severely photoshopped that they distort limbs and make skin look TOO smooth are the ones we can laugh at because the people who publish them live on planet delusion—population: themselves.

Everyone knows that stock photos are meant to represent everyday scenarios' mundane Reality. But somehow, they always miss the mark and appear stiff, inauthentic, and don't portray real life how you and I live it. Art director, Matthew, grew sick and tired of seeing these unrealistic scenarios all over the internet and decided to do something about it. According to his blog, he injects "Reality into an unreal world by injecting myself... I am the Stock Photobomber! Armed with Photoshop 6.0 and my own raw emotion, I'm going to thrust stock photography into the real world the only way I know how... I'm going to photobomb the crap out of it." Here is a hilarious selection of his talent, more of which can be found on his Facebook page.

If there were a prize for the most bizarrely photoshopped Facebook profile pictures, then Lina Slizauskiene from Lithuania would win it, hands down. Her pictures are a collection of the tackiest, weirdest, and most badly photoshopped photos we've ever come across, and we're not sure what her thought process is. From posing in front of the pyramids in Egypt to being a fairy in the forest, her imagination knows no bounds.To be fair to her, if there were another prize for creativity and humor, she'd win that one too, so overall, she's a winner. She's provided us with some much-needed laughs, and hopefully, you'll also chuckle as you scroll through this collection of some of her best ones.

OK, whoever created this magic should win an award.

Tom Selleck? YES PLEASE!

Sandwiches? Delicious.

Waterfalls? Heaven!

I don't think these photoshopped masterpieces could be improved. They are the definition of perfection. Scroll through to your heart's desire. You. Are. Welcome!

If you've been following us for a while, you'll know that we love a good celebrity photoshop gallery. We've brought you celebrities with no teeth, and if you think that was scary, wait until you see these pictures of celebrities with no eyebrows. I'm not going to lie; I didn't realize how just important eyebrows were to the face's structural integrity until I saw these images. Holy Moly, they are truly terrifying.

Mr. Bean was one of those classic 'I don't know why this is funny, but it just is' shows. For a guy who barely spoke, he somehow managed to make everyone laugh, which is a particular skill that not many actors or comedians have. So how about a little reminder of how funny Mr. Bean was, with some pictures of his face photoshopped onto famous Hollywood characters, that someone somewhere had the ingenuity to create? Somehow these are almost as funny as watching him on TV, so my conclusion is that his humor is in his face. What do you think?

Photoshop is a magical thing; a tool with which you can visualize all your wildest dreams come true, it's basically like a genie, but a massive tease. Speaking of genies, one guy has used Photoshop to make all of his childhood Disney dreams come true, and my inner child is so jealous. Samuel, a Spanish primary school teacher who likes to experiment with graphic design and photoshop in his spare time, has edited photos of himself to look like he is chilling with all our favorite childhood Disney characters. From watching TV with 101 Dalmatians to waxing Gaston's hairy chest, his creations are realistic, creative, and funny, all while invoking extreme nostalgia. Check out some of his best work below and tell me your inner child isn't also crying with envy!

Celebrity photoshops are a whole world of their own. The internet is full of various edited pictures of celebrities in different altered states, from putting Nicolas Cage's face on all Hollywood roles to full-on gender swaps. But perhaps one of the best we've come across is this gallery of celebs with no teeth. It's equally terrifying and hilarious, and we're in awe of these masterful photoshop skills.
