    OMG – what happened to his arms???

  • http://www.leola.cz Eva

    Its not only the armpit, but his jaw – it wasn’t even him posing with these kids, Im sure :-) ))

    • http://ravyn-skye.livejournal.com/ RavynSkye

      The armpit? Okay, that looks messed up too with being able to see THROUGH IT, but look at his forearm though! It has twigs coming out of his SKIN !!!(I vote there was a hurricane and those twigs were driven straight through his arm by gale force winds… like straw through a palm tree or something. XD;)Also, I agree that there is some nearly indetectable comping going on here… That body looks NOTHING like his short, stocky body. It’s too long and lean. I’m thinking it was someone alone, then they just added in the boy, by putting him next to the guy, and put a random hand on his shoulder, and then the girl was ALSO added later but that was harder, and the arm around her was heavily manipulated, and the weird armpit see-through and fake looking ‘folds’ on the side of his shirt are because originally his arm was hanging down since the girl wasn’t there at all.

        See-through? It’s a pair of earrings. ;)

        Doesn’t help that the image is so bloody low-res.

        • Lolabel

          No. You’re stupid.

    • http://mendelid.myopenid.com/ mendel

      This time, there is actually video footage of the photoshoot, so some of these theories do sound a little silly. ;)

  • Andres

    Misread the title as PADRE.

    • Tyler Durden

      I read it as Padme, then ripped my own eyes out because it reminded me of the Star Wars prequels.

    So that’s where the expression “hairy like a bush” comes from!

  • http://ravyn-skye.livejournal.com/ RavynSkye

    Worst arm hair EVAR. XD;;; (I vote there was a hurricane and those twigs were driven straight through his arm by gale force winds… like straw through a palm tree or something. XD;)

    I’m also a little worried about the fact that words like ‘perspective’ seem to mean nothing to these people… His hand looks HUGE compared to his tiny little gollum arm, which may or may not be connected to his body. :/

    To be fair, MM has very weird looking arms IRL; he has t-rex syndrome in that his arms are very short compared to his body, and that is accentuated by his working out making his biceps and forearms both look bulky,and he looks stocky, in general; but, they just made his naturally short arms look even shorter and, frankly, weirder than they already do IRL.

  • Shugon

    Y’know…I’m just thinking out loud here…years ago, I used to be an editor at a national weekly — nothing *near* the circulation of Parade — and if we had let a cover like that go out the door, everybody from the copy desk up would have gotten canned. What has happened? Do publishers now believe that the populace is so desperately dumbed down that they won’t notice? Or do they just not care? Or do *they* not even notice?? (sorry for the rant, I had to get this off my chest).

    • Michael

      Okay, it’s not a great photo. But that has nothing to do with Photoshop. Not a PSD.

  • Teleros

    Hmm, it me or is this one lacking a label?

    Fine post otherwise :) .

  • Keehar

    If you notice, its actually her EARRING which is on his arm pitt, not a photoshop disaster…

    • http://www.facebook.com/people/Andy-James/1392480396 Andy James

      Nobody mind this comment it’s the only rational one in the comments. Obviously her earring. But here comes the “Oh look at his arm it’s broken in two. HERPDERPDISASTER”

    • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_2UKOHZBOBW75ASAYYWOYF5RACY Caiushu Qualls

      I thought it was a pair of earrings at first, but it could be part of the background. The problem is the image is so low-res that it’s hard to tell.

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_TJPB72PV7LFML7JYXC3RYJBOVI LouisM

    his arm, above his elbow, hard to see so I could be wrong, seems to be going in the wrong direction.

  • besucher

    Behind the girl’s neck, his arm vanishes. Under the girl’s cheek, part of his arm vanishes. And how he is supposed to put his hand on the boy’s shoulder is a mystery to me. Come to that, I’m not so sure about his left arm, either (just try to mentally connect his arm to his body…).

    That thing on the girl’s shirt looks suspicious, too… If that’s supposed to be a stylish pattern, it’s definitely a very strange one, and one that goes beyond the seams.
    And if it’s dirt, it’d the tidiest dirt I’ve ever seen.

    • Nothing To See Here

      She’s wearing a blue tank top with a patterned vest over it. It looks like she chose her earrings to match the vest. It’s unfortunate her earrings and vest blend so well with the background giving the impression of a PSD. Matthew’s hands appear to be resting on the boy’s and girl’s shoulders like he really didn’t want to touch them. I’d say that’s the only disaster.

  • http://twitter.com/arnoen Arno Enzo

    Double-jointed… Nothing new. All the cover-guys and girls are like that these days.And I’m sure the head is original, just the neck is a bit too big/thick for it (great job masking that in!).

    “Road Safety – Stop Texting While Driving”

    …people need magazines to tell them this?

    • Bob

      people reading this kind of magazines do.
      Half of the @$$es on the same roads as me also do.
      Not sure where they intersect…

    • Bargonzo

      What about: “Stop Reading This Mag While Driving?”

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=521502057 Jillian Jordan

    Uh, Matt…there is a little bit of underbrush in your armpit.

  • Michael Madden

    The earrings may be a disaster, but it’s not a Photoshop disaster.

  • Kat

    Maybe you should post interesting disasters.

    • http://www.www.psdisasters.com Vernon

      How many images have you sent in Kat?

      • Jonny Dade

        Good man, i’m assuming Kat, and many others on here simply expect instant entertainement, without ever having to contribute or be a part of it. They expect side splitting, hilarious disasters that are painfully obvious. Perish the thought that they might have to look closely, or put some effort into it. Please, one of you whingebags, set up a site called http://www.ihatepsdisastersbutcomeononiteverydayanywayjusttomoan.com/ and take your pointless business elsewhere.

        • Fred

          That link doesn’t work

          • Nilson

            Did you read: “set up a site”? Jeez…

      • Yeah Whatever

        Hmmmmm maybe the ones making the revenue off the site should be responsible for it’s content yes?

  • Thatguy

    “posssessed”? Fail.

  • Marcus

    Remember when Photoshop Disasters was actually worth visiting? Remember when their posts were legitimate Photoshop-related disasters, not just poor photo choice? Remember when the editors actually looked closely at a photo to make sure it really was a mistake before they posted it? And made funny comments? Good times…

    • Jo Momma

      No

    • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_2UKOHZBOBW75ASAYYWOYF5RACY Caiushu Qualls

      The problem is psdisasters.com has become a content mill – instead of maybe posting less frequently but making sure all posts are high quality, the owners are trying to dump as much crap as possible regardless of whether or not it actually is a disaster to keep people visiting as though it’s an active website. However, compare their recent posts to the older, classic disasters, and it’s plain to see post quality has gone down the shitter.

      • http://www.www.psdisasters.com Vernon

        Thanks Caiushu & Marcus. Like I said before if you can find any PSD’s that are better, please send them on and I will be sure to post them.

        • Ice

          I think the main issue is that things like this post -shouldn’t- be posted. Does there have to be content every few days? No. I’d much rather less content of better quality, than more content that’s just crap.

          The job of the editor is to know when to not publish anything.

  • Mikaela

    You guys… also look to HIS left arm, our right…

  • Carol Ann

    Just to the right of her cheek there is a suspiciously straight line that runs down her amazingly straight cheek and the unusually straight side of her tear-drop earring exactly at the seam of his shirt which just happens to have a seam even though most tee shirts don’t. I think that’s the line where Matthew had his body tuck so he could appear as tall and thin as the editor thought he should be.

  • Locke

    Her teeth … D:

  • where’s waldo?

    it is not a disaster, but they did do something very odd with her braces. If you zoom on the image, she has grey squares where her braces should be.

  • Wolfgang

    Another example of seeking a disaster where there is none. The blurb says: “have you seen a truly awful piece of Photoshop work?” with emphasis on the “truly awful”. The only thing that is truly awful is the way this website has deteriorated.

    • besucher

      The earings may explain something, but his left arm still looks awfully strange.

  • Jonny Dade

    I can’t even think of anything funny to say ‘cos the moaners have took all the fun out of this site.

  • Jonny Dade

    Hand. Forehead.

  • Jonny Dade

    Hand. Forehead.

  • SpellingDisasters

    The photo shoot was captured on video. There is NO Photoshop disaster here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gp-297XyKRM

  • Trekvero

    As anyone actually watch the “original” link?
    There is a video of the shooting session: http://www.parade.com/news/all-america/2010/meet-parades-all-america-high-school-service-team.html
    So it’s definitely her earrings and some of the shooting angles are already weird.

  • Thewtfqueen

    LIKE COME ON! I have emailed you hundreds and hundreds of times! WHY DON’T YOU POST IT? I mean her freakin’ arm is missing!

  • Arnonymouse

    the disaster is that they forgot to shop out mcconaughey

  • mozart

    Look under the girls arm. A Triangular patch of grass on her shirt.

    • Rain

      The triangle of grass patch is actually under MM’s arm, terrible mistake this is a PS Disaster.

  • Pshop Jedi

    The actor looks more like John Corbett than Matthew McConaughey. It’s a weird look, a weird smile, it’s just plain weird.
