Hipoglós: Baby’s First Bluetooth

Posted on 26 March by bryce

When trying to convince someone that technologies and toddlers mix, it’s best to avoid a baby so photoshopped that they look like a half-baked pile of dough.

You know what they say about babies with big hands – they have big bluetooth-enabled diapers. For a system that’s supposed to save parents the trouble of checking for diaper-related disasters, Hipoglós should have made efforts to avoid putting this steamy pile at the forefront of their marketing campaign.

Thanks Ygor! You can see the original on Exame.

Eddie Bauer: Artificial Fit

Posted on 25 March by bryce

Every fit is a perfect fit when it’s photoshopped.

The irony is that a poor photoshop can make a well-fitting pair of jeans seem out of place. The trick to a perfect fit? Watch the stitching, mind the hem, and avoid liberal use of cut and paste.

Thanks Cara. The original was found in an Eddie Bauer newsletter email.

Quiz: Thumbs up for the first born

Posted on 23 March by bryce

It’s important to cradle a newborns head, but daddy dearest’s thumb appears to be this baby’s first limb-related disaster. What say you, readers? Inappropriate time for a (Photoshop-related) hand job, or a simple matter of awkward perspective?

Elena Miro: Heave Ho Hips

Posted on 22 March by bryce

I’m all for a full-figured female, but these curves don’t seem quite right.

The dresses wrinkles are the first clue that this photoshopper isn’t as smooth as he thinks. Even the model seems indignant at her treatment.

Thanks Giulia!

GAP: Mind the GAP

Posted on 21 March by bryce

Don’t you hate it when you’re out with the fellas, just skipping along, and Chad accidently elbows your hand into fleshy paste?

I’m struggling to choose between a joke about being stuck in the middle, or a joke about being dealt a bad hand – so instead, let’s all just have a laugh about the GAP trying to make three grown men skipping look cool.

Thanks Gareth. The original was an email newsletter from Gap.

H&M: Stunted Figure

Posted on 20 March by bryce

When she stands up, you’ll see she’s actually holding a cello.

The positive press H&M received for featuring full-figured manikins has resulted in a lot of risky choices with their models. Gap teeth, 70′s hair, and a growth-hormone deficiency are the latest round of new ideas to make it out of the marketing department.

Thanks Martin! Could this girl possibly be this size?

JCP: Catch my bearings

Posted on 19 March by bryce

Some women have child-bearing hips. Others, less so.

The worst part of this disaster is the fallout for the models other body parts. From the stretched arms to the Herculean shoulders, a slim waist results in more than pants that can’t be kept up.

Thanks Erin. You can see the original on the JCP site.

SFX: Who said anything about sex?

Posted on 18 March by bryce

Who’s to blame for SFX suddenly being replaced by SEX magazine?

As popular as Doctor Who is, skyrocketing sales of SFX magazine this month have little to do with the good doctor. The look from Jenna-Louise Coleman suggests she may know what’s up with that.

Thanks Elizabeth. The original can be found in the March 2013 edition of SFX magazine.
