Deep River Snacks: The Unnatural Life

Considering their slogan is “Enjoy Life Naturally,” you’d think at least one part of this picture would be, y’know – natural.

Photoshop Disasters

The only part of this picture that looks semi-correct  is that outlet – which is a nice touch in a chip advert, Deep River. Does that floor have a drop shadow? Curiosity abound with the table’s misty black aura and the middle picture’s trend-setting upward shadow, too. Getting that dog out of the picture is animal rescue at this point.

Thanks Alexander! You can find the original on the Deep River Facebook page.

Dockers: Reflecting on shoe choices

Either Dockers is making a statement about reflecting on where our shoes come from, or someone flipped this image without thinking.

Photoshop Disasters

I may be jumping to conclusions by calling this a sloppy image edit. For all we know, Dockers is aiming a product line at people who have two right feet or a stylish stance similar to that of a duck.

Thanks Martin for the find. You can see the original Happy-Size.

Cosmopolitan: Outpouring of Shame

Mmm, who wants a milkshake?  This isn’t the first time that Cosmopolitan magazine has graced our site, but this mistake is certainly their most embarrassing yet.

Yes, we know that this is not a Photoshop Disaster, but it’s such a great example of a layout disaster that we just had to share it.

Found on BuzzFeed, via Imgur.

Victoria’s Secret: Thigh-Jacked

We’re not usually into conspiracy theories, but since this appears to be the same model who had a thigh disaster recently, we’re starting to suspect that the good people at Victoria’s Secret are trying to hide something.  I don’t know why, though; there’s no shame in being a Minotaur.

Thanks for the great find, Tryptophan!  The original is here.

D&H: Head Horror

Trou-ble…. trouble, trouble, trouble… trouble’s been doggin’ my life since the day I was born… Wor-ry….. worry, worry, worry, worry…

This PSD is about a residential area in Berlin. The slogan in the middle says: “Large garden apartments with a wide view into the green.”

Thanks Marco. I bet they sold a ton of apartments!

HTC Windows Phone: Business Casualty

Hey, Princess, check this out – watch what happens to Daddy’s hand when I stick my arm outside the airlock!

Thanks goes to Elmer. The original can be found on a bus shelter outside the main hall of Schiphol Airport, Holland. I don’t really know what HTC and Microsoft were thinking when they put this advert together.
