Why ?

    OK

     

    Can I just ask a question, and it is I feel, a very obvious one.

     

    Why do so many photoshop their faces onto what is clearly someone elses body ?

     

    I can understand that there are many who have this idea limage of how they would like themselves to look, but what they are effectively doing is cutting their own throats, should they decide that simply pasting pics online is no longer enough and it is time to get out and about on the TG scene at clubs such as Candygirls, Legs 800 or wherever they choose to come out such as a BNO event in Manchester or even in Glasgow as happened recently.

     

    If someone has been cutting and pasting, when the time comes to finally make an appearance then it will, likely as not,  become abundantly clear that the photos people are used to seeing on here will have been nothing more than a blatant lie which let's face it, will not do them any favours.

     

    There are none of us perfect, but if someone is prepared to lie to others or worse still, to themselves, about who they are and how they look then surely they are only fooling themselves.

     

    All of us are critical about how we look, and we all see faults, and I am sure that many of the girls on here who are out and about on a regular basis, myself included, will all say that they all do their utmost to look the best they possibly can, but there is always something we feel negative about because I know I certainly do.

     

    Take my photographs for example, where I only post the ones I am happy with, because where others might think that a particular photo of me is a good one, I might look at it and see "him" rather than who I am now, and so what could be a perfectly good photograph ends up being binned.

     

    However, if you post a photo which isclearly not an acurate representation of how you actually look by cutting and pasting, you are only lying to yourself and letting so many others down who might look to your image as something they might like to aspire to.

     

    Think about it, and be honest with others but more importantly, be honest to yourself.

  • Julie Hawkwood Why? Why not? Isn't that what a lot of internet chat rooms and things like Second Life are all about? In real life, I might be black/white/disabled/abled/fat/thin but in SL I can be anyone. Thats not cheating in SL, its what its all about. I think the...  more
  • Deleted Member Hello. Do you mean that you have seen that at this site? If so, I would like to take a look at that. I think Photoshop is very useful for certain things, like colour correction, lightening or darkening images, or adding contrast etc. Photoshop is widely...  more
