Look at this joke of an image. It's so stupidly absurd that either the Chinese government photoshoppers didn't really give a f*ck about it, or they are the most incompetent Photoshop operators on the planet. Read More >
H&M has apologised for ads that critics say depict an unrealistically tan and skinny model. Sure Isabeli Fontana looks emaciated and fried, but she's Brazilian, so that makes sense right? Bullshit. This person could never exist. A Hamburg street artist shows us how Photoshop has destroyed our ideal of beauty with the cleverest adbust we've seen in years.

It seems like England's Olympic athletes aren't the only ones interested in setting world records this summer. Photographer Clare Newton has just been awarded a Guinness World Record for the world's longest photo that measures over a kilometre (over 0.62 miles) in length. Read More >
Remember when Adobe said the only way to fix a recently discovered Photoshop CS5.5 vulnerability was to upgrade to CS6? Thankfully, they've had a change of heart and are now working on a patch for all affected CS5.X applications. Apparently, the only push Adobe needed to do its job was the rage of the entire internet... [Adobe via Macworld] Read More >

Adobe Photoshop CS5.5 was released about a year ago. CS6 is out now, but with 5.5 barely being a year old, anyone who bought it could safely expect Adobe to keep it up to date for a while, right? Not so much. Read More >

If only getting ready in the morning was as easy as opening Photoshop and going to town on your face with its myriad of correction tools. That's the tantalising dream this Retouch Mirror from Atypyk promises, but doesn't deliver. Read More >
If you're trying to create a dreamy flying-through-the-clouds sequence without renting a plane, helicopter, or even a special effects cloud tank, Jeff Farmer has a solution.

Architectural photographer Victor Enrich makes these impossible buildings using a combination of photography, digital retouching and 3D graphics. The results are so amazing that I can actually believe some of them are real. [Victor Enrich] Read More >
It's CS6 day! Adobe just dropped Creative Suite 6, which means a trove of updated apps with new features that make it seem like magical gremlins live inside your computer, processing your images. Read More >
Almost every photo of just about anyone we see in the media has had the photoshop treatment. Slice a bit of fat off here, smooth that out, take out the imperfections there – man kind at its most unobtainable. When it comes to tech, though, you wouldn’t expect a manufacturer to photoshop out a bulge on its handset just to make it look a bit thinner in an advert, but it appears that’s exactly what HTC’s done to its One X.

Most of the times the classic MySpace self-portrait is trashy. Sometimes they're accidentally hilarious. With this Photoshop trick, they can be mind-numbingly, body-trippingly awesome. That's because it's a mirrored self-portrait of you... without the camera in the picture. Read More >

I'm in love with Photoshop CS6 after working with the beta during the past few weeks. For the first time in many years, this one is a must-have update, as it'll save a lot of time for professionals on the day-to-day, thanks to new and updated features, a new graphic engine, and a new—beautiful—streamlined interface.

If you spend a lot of time in Photoshop, chances are you use — or would benefit from — a tablet instead of a mouse. Wacom's offerings tend to be some of the best, and their new Intuos5 range seems no exception. Read More >
