Photoshopped

Ahmadinejad as a Photoshop Artist : Dry Bones cartoon.

Photoshop has taken over!! ...And Ahmadinejad is not the only "Artist at Work" with this powerful image-manipulating tool. We can no longer believe any photographic evidence! ...of anything!

It's so bad that even Dry Bones took up the mouse and the graphics program. I had (and have) no idea about how to manipulate photographs but I began to use Photoshop to color the cartoons after I had drawn and scanned them into the computer.

Ah ...but that was the start of the slippery slope. I then began drawing the cartoons with blank balloons, adding the lettering in Photoshop. From there it was easy to move on to the hard-core stuff. Yes. Photoshop-drawn and Photoshop-lettered "Talk Balloons"!

I've cut and pasted the evidence into the cartoon below:

What do you think?

Have you ever noticed the difference between the hand-drawn and Photoshop-created Talk Balloons?

Iran's Missiles

Iranian Missiles Dry Bones cartoon.
Ahmadinejad is not just relying on missile technology to scare the world.
He's also using Photoshop!

Here is the Iranian photo of the dramatic launch of Iranian missiles that graced the front pages of newspapers around the world:

And here is the same photo before the Iranians "photoshopped it" to add a fourth missile:

"At least one of the photographs released today by Iran and published by an unquestioning Western media is a Photoshop fake:" -more

So what conclusions do you come to?
