As with any powerful tool, Photoshop can be rather "destructive" in the wrong hands. That's why we have the r/Sh***yPhotoshop subreddit, where people can proudly show off their terrible, hilarious, and cringe-worthy attempts at digital manipulation. This page is a goldmine of terrible Photoshop blunders that will have you wondering why anyone would even bother.
But don't be fooled, these bad Photoshop fails are not just limited to amateurs. Even professionals can make mistakes sometimes (even if some of them might seem rather purposeful). So, the next time you're feeling down about your own Photoshop skills, just remember that there's always someone out there who's doing it worse.

One of the most common Photoshop fails is when the proportions of an image are completely off. This can happen when someone tries to manipulate the size or shape of an object and ends up making it look distorted and unrealistic. You'll often see this on advertisements or magazine covers, where models are made to look impossibly tall and thin or their body parts are stretched out of proportion.

Another common mistake is when someone tries to remove an object from a photo but doesn't take the time to properly blend the edges. This can result in a very obvious and awkward-looking "cut-out" effect, where the object looks like it's just been pasted onto the background. This is a dead giveaway that the photo has been tampered with and can really ruin the illusion of a seamless image.

Sometimes, people will try to add elements to a photo that simply don't belong. For example, you might see a beach scene with a giant dinosaur in the background or a group photo with a UFO hovering above. While this can be done well with careful planning and execution, it often looks completely ridiculous and takes away from the authenticity of the image.

Finally, one of the most cringe-worthy Photoshop fails is when someone tries to airbrush a person's face to make them look flawless, but ends up making them look like an entirely different person. This is a problem that plagues many magazine covers and advertisements, where models and celebrities are made to look like they have perfect skin and no imperfections whatsoever. However, this can backfire spectacularly, resulting in a completely unrecognizable and often unsettling image.
School Decides To Cover Girls' Chests By Altering Yearbook Photos
Conservative Americans are really striving to be the taliban of the western world
Yeah that's ringing truer and truer since abortions being revoked and women in govt in some state now needing to cover themselves more to be professional, literally quotes about not distracting the men. Fricking insanity that so many cannot see they are becoming what they fight against (meaning Sharia law misuses etc, extremism as seen currently in Afghanistan, and now the Christian version in the USA too)

How stupid; simply cropping ALL the pics of ALL the students at shoulder level would have been easier.
You are assuming "thinking" was any part of the process

I remember reading about this FL HS yearbook article, not too long ago. At that, stupid job doing photoshop, as well.
When I was in Elementary, I REPEAT ELEMENTARY, my chest was photoshopped. It was hot and I had 2 buttons down. It wae before my transition, but I have always been paper flat.

Oh yeah. Because now that it's covered I have no idea what a boob looks like, of course.
Thank God she isn't showing her shoulders!! You KNOW how teenage boys just cannot control themselves when it comes to shoulders.
This is the length conservative school board members will go to onion's enforce dress code. 💀
I remember this one - it was really awkward. Why is the school focused on the girls' cleavage?
Unbelievable in this day & age some still have a problem with boobies!...lol
Wow. I didn’t expect when looking at this list to become angry. This is a joke, right?
Anyone objecting to the original photo should remind themselves that no one is actually changed just by photoshopping their portrait. These people must think ""The Picture of Dorian Grey" was non-fiction.

As someone who does photo editing professionally. No one should be encouraged to try photoshop based on these images.
I'm tired of the word "fail" being used as a noun. The word is "failure" people! "Fail" is a verb.
I could enjoy a whole list of these just by people like James Fridman.. put on here I get to read the funny comments as well.
100% agree! Had to remove part of my grill and fender today to replace a HEADLIGHT BULB
