EPIC Fail! HAHA!

bio said...

Nasty!

JMadDude said...

hey, I have that font!

Thomas Westgard said...

Well, I guess being on this blog is one way to get the word out to Photoshop Users...

Yonah said...

What about the scary blurred hand? The ball of his thumb appears to be melting.

Hero Paperboy said...

so what's wrong with it? Sorry, I can't tell.

Hero Paperboy said...

OHHHH! The logo on the football got cut off before the pictuer was cut-off! haha

Cunningham said...

Now that IS funny! Curious... what font is that?

Brandy said...

Yeah, just how DO you get 'motion blur' in that part of your hand? Wow...

matthew said...

ouch. that one hits where it hurts. pretty sure i have that font buried away somewhere as well.

Chad Schofield said...

Oh dear, that took me too long - thought it was som obscure superbowl reference!

Still it's nice to see Michael J. Fox getting some hand modelling work.

heath said...

Ok,, I *would* say that's an error, but hardly a disaster... BUT, for an ad for the freakin' PS World Expo?

Major DISASTER! Gold stars all around for this one.

Renan said...

Ironic.

Sad too, another Kelby kool-aid drinker...

Fred Klee said...

Hello,

Just ask Kelby where is the problem, you will maybe receive a free training.

Think he is one of the best in Photoshop, so just have a little respect.

Terene said...

If it's not broken it doesn't get our attention here...
That's a good strategy...

Stephanie Leanne said...

How ironic!

morgedoid said...

"what font is which font do you mean?, there's like more than one."

A Grammar Disasters blog is urgently needed.

"Um, yeah, we meant to do that - It was a test - that's it - a test. And you passed.!"

So boringly picky sometimes…

Extra arms and stuff on people - great… But, kinda find these posts a bit boring though…

Josin said...

Indifference is cool, right Nim?

videojoe03 said...

i have that font as well. its called "a bite" and i got it free a while back from 1001fonts.com

@The Sophisticate's Diary

There is a blog named "For all of us who realize that the vast majority of the internet users have a native language other than English, yet they are very welcome to both take part of and leave comments on whatever site they might come across on the Internet, should they feel like it".

Spend a few minutes reading some of the posts there. It might open up your eyes and free your mind.

Mike said...

I hope someone send this to Kelby. I'm sure he would get a laugh out of it.

ImageWrangler said...

Man, I hope at the convention they show me how to not complete my Photoshop work so I can make it on this blog.

On second though, I don't.

Jahz said...

That font can be downloaded almost anywhere on the net, and that .. the cruel way of editing the banner.. such a pity because the convention was about Photoshop!

The Fairy said...

Maybe it's an in-joke by them :D

The Sophisticate's Diary said...

Tomas,

Are you saying that your 'free' mind presumes that all bad English grammar on the internet is written by non-English speakers?

I don't presume any such thing as it is usually quite easy to tell the difference between poor or lazy grammar and a lack of fluency in the English language.

If the original post that I light-heartedly sniped at was written by someone with a first language other than English I shall stand corrected.

Orangetiki said...

Not even the Adobe gods are safe

killer7 said...

random "this is not a disaster" bullshit.

sorry, but i just wanted to be part of this...

Tomas said...

@The Sophisticate's Diary

No, you are absolutely right. But, very often (too often, if you ask me) I see people nagging on language skills (or lack thereof), even though it must be quite clear to everyone that it is because of a different mother language.

So, let _me_ stand corrected, was the comment you referred wroten by an english speaking person. :-)

Luisa said...

maybe it's a printing fail on the ball...



... nah, not really

p.s: english is not my mother language

Ashley said...

Oh my god, this kind of makes me sick.

That's pretty ironic uh?

Scott Kelby said...

Hi Gang:
I saw this and totally cracked up!!!!

Sadly, this is the least of the things that slips by us sometimes, but now I have to go fire someone in our graphics dept. ;-) (totally kidding!).

All my best,

-Scott Kelby
President, Nat'l Assn. of Photoshop Professionals

Ninelivephotography said...

Great to see Scott commenting on it.

Avoura said...

Maybe it was a conference about how to spot Photoshop disasters, and anyone who spotted the deliberate error in the advert gets in for free.

Raffaella Arnaldi said...

How ironic, English is not my mother tongue but I can spot mistakes made by English-speaking people... And net-users often tell me they tend to forget I'm not anglophone.

Current Resident said...

@ellens365 ... "Sad too, another Kelby kool-aid drinker..."

What does that mean? Thanks. CR

Copeland Photography said...

Oh, the rich irony is overwhelming!

dzinerblog said...

Hahaa, such irony is RIGHT! Wowww.

Phrogie said...

Great to see teh Kelby himself commenting, indeed...

I know you're kidding about sacking those responsible, Scott... but honestly, you don't need to: the embarassment factor should be enough punishment :)
