Yes it is. I don't use it, only ever crop mine to fit or remove others.

Depends on how far you go. I change mine to black and white sometimes and crop things out. I also lighten them if they are too dark. That’s about all I can work out how to do anyway

I saw a photo recently and the guy was holding his cock but his fingers were so elongated and the cock looked like it had been randomly stuck into the middle of the balls. It was so obviously photoshopped but it had been fabbed quite a few times

We're not averse to a softening filter or changing to black and white for artistic flare on a couple of our photos but anyone on our friends list will see our face pics are raw.

We certainly don't photoshop or alter our body parts.

Are we false advertising?

I use Lightroom on mine but it's to change colours and shadows as I shoot in RAW so it's needed to get the best from the pics. The colours need a boost. Also the sky and foreground are often a few stops different and need a tweak

As for the people who change their shape,that's a no no. Especially when they are shit at it.

There is one woman who some how frequents the top fab list.

When she blows her tits up and the lines on the back ground are all over the place it's so obvious. She makes her legs look thinner and tries to soften her skin

Everything is photoshopped. Well anything a photographer would produce because they usually shoot in raw. And as soon as you start editing, even if just a crop and colour balance, it's considered as photoshop. If someone is making their body parts look bigger then fair play as that's hard to do. Much easier to change the camera angle, would we say that shooting from a flattering angle is deceiving the viewer? Still you ass and tits. End of the day we all try and look our best and it's easier for some to do that with close in crops and shadows

I play with colour balance, crop, blur out backgrounds when I take a shot at home, conceal my tattoos etc. in my public pics. That's generic PhotoShopping even if I don't ever to use it to change important things like size and shape. Hundreds of people I will never meet will probably see those pics, so I feel no obligation to let them see identifying features. It's also not like people have ever looked shocked that I'm not sepia or black and white in real life or have a head when they meet me either. My friends gallery has more candid shots and I can choose who sees those. My public gallery is just that and I treat it as such.

Unless you have a super expensive camera, then the camera on the phone is not capturing what you look like anyway, it might as well have a snapchat filter on it.

A lot of you don't seem to realise, one of photoshops main uses in the professional world is to match the photo with what the eye seen. To correct the colours, tones, balances, to remove things the eyes could not see but now you see in the photo.

People think every photoshop is some extreme manipulation, but in the professional world, its normally 99% of the time only used to correct the photo to make it look like what your eye sees.

In fact I would go so far as to say, without putting a phone taken photo through photoshop, it can never look like what the eye seen.

Photoshop is great for taking a crap picture and rescuing it; not everybody uses it to texturemap abs on themselves or shave a few inches off their waistline.

There are some people on here that use photoshop to create some really great images, it adds variety for those of us that enjoy photos...

It also gives a massive insight into the person, it shows their artistic side and what they find pleasing.

Most of the pics are self-taken and many of us are amateurs in photography.

I think it should be OK to crop, watermark, enhance contrast/brightness, change to black&white or to erase some telling marks (tattoos etc).

That all sounds fine to me hun!

I think people are talking about those who shave several inches off their tum (wouldn’t we all like a perfect tum?), create a wrinkle free face (if you have lots to start with) etc etc - Ie giving yourself a complete face and body makeover!

Like many others, I've cropped my pics, added colour effects, lightened them and so on. But I've never altered my body size or shape so what you see is what you (might) get.

It's usually pretty apparent which photos have been significantly processed - and, personally speaking, I find such images lose all their individuality and attraction because of it. Those kind of 'featureless' pics, where the skin's been smoothed to remove every last line, freckle, scar, shadow, or natural crease (because you're bending!) just become sterile to me - almost doll like. I like people to look like people!

I *do* understand why we want to present ourselves in the best possible light, literally and figuratively, and there's nothing wrong with flattering angles but if you obliterate who you *really* are is the humiliation of being called out when you meet for real actually worth the risk of displaying extremely deceptive photos?

Those kind of 'featureless' pics, where the skin's been smoothed to remove every last line, freckle, scar, shadow, or natural crease (because you're bending!) just become sterile to me - almost doll like. I like people to look like people!

I *do* understand why we want to present ourselves in the best possible light, literally and figuratively, and there's nothing wrong with flattering angles but if you obliterate who you *really* are is the humiliation of being called out when you meet for real actually worth the risk of displaying extremely deceptive photos?"

When editing is done well it makes a photo pop

The one a few have mentioned so far fails at that.

It's comical as we wouldn't ever meet her so it's no issue

"Why are people photoshopping there pics... isn't this false advertisement

Between this and the oh so wonderful snapchat filters OP you begin to wonder what they’d look like in the flesh...and would you even recognise them haha

MrsK u should of walked past

It does make me cringe seeing a grown woman or even man on here with the bloody Snapchat filters on..

Have to agree with that.

We met a girl lastnight. She didn't look anything like her photos. It was very disappointing.

She didn't have any floppy ears or a giant tongue. She didn't even have butterfies in her hair. "

Worse than photo shop.

We met a guy who's previous meet had been with a girl who had used her sister in her profile.

When he said you don't look like your pics she said that her sister was better looking so she used hers

I'd say 99.9% of the people on here have shopped there pics or used other people's pics!.. don't see the point, as you'll only get found out anyhow!

I don't see the point in going over the top with editing. Crop them, maybe throw a filter on and black out areas for privacy...30 seconds.Done.

All our pics are taken on our phones, with an occasional filter used although most often we don’t bother. Literally snap and a crop. Don’t get me wrong we may take a dozen and only upload the ones with the best angles of course.

I went to a social meet, and the guy was not the guy in the pic I was suppose to meet. He had sent a pic of his son. Shocked was an understatement when I met him

Suffice to say I walked out

I barely know how to text let alone alter pictures

I'm old school - let's just meet and see if we like each other.

Photos mean nothing - I think I look better in photos than in real life - but then I'm only going to post the best ones obvs!

In real life we don't have that option x

I’m saying nothing about photoshop, my face does genuinely look like emojis

The rest is pretty much all me apart from blurring out a few recognisable features on my body or the background and the odd colour filter

"Depends on how far you go. I change mine to black and white sometimes and crop things out. I also lighten them if they are too dark. That’s about all I can work out how to do anyway "

I do exactly this

We use Photoshop all the time never to make things change size but to make a better photo increase the contrast, remove something from the background, basic adjustments to make the image look better it's a tool like any other things it can be used and abused
