Hey, everyone, look at three-eyes! Good thing the trials of growing up are so easy. Original

As the world’s only known conjoined fraternal twins, Carlo & Sylvia not only rejected the pity of others, but their surprising comfort level with the strange card dealt to them by Nature was unsettling to say the least. Original

This is what happens when you hire graphic artists straight out of solitary confinement on a work-release program. Original

Oprah Winfrey turned quite a few heads at last night’s Image Awards, with hair by Umberto, jewelry by Bulgari, and gown by Kuato. Original

I think the guys over at J Crew might have gotten a little too excited.  Original

If you’re going to slather your model in flamingo-pink, try to avoid giving her the legs of one too. Original

Plus-sized fashions for minus-limbed persons. Original 

Given a choice, I think I would much rather float than hop, too! Original

With all the times “Thing” has featured on the site I’m starting to think that the Photoshop gods are playing with us.  Original 

 

We wish everyone a happy New Year and we’ll see you back here in 2013!

Photoshop Round-Up: Links We Love

Posted on 22 December by bev

This week on PsDisasters, we had a “Honey, I Blew Up The Baby” moment, we debated about whether digitally adding a skull-crushing sombrero to Gwen Stefani was a conceptual disaster or a psd, we took the world’s weirdest trolley ride, and Gucci gave us the best Christmas gift ever: A flamingo disguised as a handbag model.  It was a pretty good week!  Now, let’s cap it all off with some fun links from around the web.

  • Last weekend we issued a Quiz asking our readers if this Longchamp image was a disaster or not.  51% of our fans thought it was a psd… until model Coco Rocha herself responded with a behind-the-scenes image!  Verdict: Not a disaster.  [Styleite]

  • Male celebs Photoshopped to look like women.  Why?  Because boobs, that’s why.  [The Chive]
  • The Worst Photoshop Fails of 2012… almost all of which you saw here on PsDisasters first. [Business Insider]

  • 25 eerie compilations that mix World War II images with modern-day scenes.  Chilling.  [List25]
  • A Tumblr artist decided to “clean up” Frida Kahlo’s iconic facial hair.  Fans were not amused.  [BuzzFeed]

  • Nicolas Cage ”As Every Character in The Hobbit” is every bit as creepy and funny as you’d imagine. [BuzzFeed]
  • Clients From Hell released a free guide to freelancing in 2013 – Highly recommended.
  • 24 Hilarious Obama Photoshops – [Smosh]

That’s it for this week.  Thanks for reading, and we’ll see you back here on Monday with more disasters. Don’t forget to join us on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ for daily entertainment.

Camaïeu: Take a Stand

Posted on 21 December by bryce

Sometimes, you can tell a lady is a little off-balance just by looking at her.

Amputee fashion is a niche market that has only recently been tapped by a few other companies. Still, you have to respect that model’s self-assured walk, especially when she doesn’t have much to walk with.

Thanks Chris for the find. You can see the original on the Camaïeu Facebook page.

Oh Baby: Oh No.

Posted on 20 December by bryce

It’s right around the eight-month mark that children start to show the first signs of being an unnecessary Photoshop.

In addition to the overgrown baby, it looks like everything is floating in a sea of beige. What do you think caused this, readers? Is that doorway on the level, or is the tot here surrounded by nothing but lies?

Thanks Laurent for the great find. You can see the original Jago.

Vogue: Mind Your Head

Posted on 19 December by bev

This will teach Gwen Stefani to tell her stylist to “take a little off the top.”

The longer you look at this Vogue cover, the stranger it looks. First, there’s the awkward spider pose they’ve got poor Gwen in, then there’s the little matter of her teeny head and normal-sized face. C’mon, guys… we’re sure your readers will still know it’s Vogue if her head covers the “G.”

Thanks for sending us this link, Helena.

St. Augustine’s: Trite Trolley Fake

Posted on 18 December by bryce

“And if I can direct your attention to the left of the trolley, you’ll notice a grotesque Photoshop disaster.”

If you look at the trolley tour website, you’ll notice that a few of the photoshopped patrons are still there, while others are replaced by even worse cut-outs. Still, the most glaring fake exists throughout: people smiling on a trolley tour.

Thanks Kevin!

Harper Realty: Subtle Political Commentary

Posted on 17 December by bryce

I wasn’t sure there was anything faked about this realty sign until I saw Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper actually smiling.

Hey readers, here’s a fun anecdote. Last Christmas, I went to see Sherlock Holmes and Harper and his brother sat behind my family in the theatre. Here are two things I learned: one, he’s surprisingly short. Two, his brother doesn’t know to shut up when Robert Downey Jr. is talking.

And yes, in Canada you do just run into the Prime Minister. Don’t get me started on the time I ran into the Attorney General while playing paintball.
