Every now and then, a photo so ambiguous emerges, it's just begging to be featured on the subreddit r/photoshopbattles. From the President of France celebrating a football match to a sleepy 2-year-old, Bored Panda has compiled a list of cool photos from the wackiest PS battles on Reddit, proving that a good photo editor is nothing compared to a collective troll army. At least in terms of creativity. So scroll down, enjoy the submissions, and upvote the best photos!

If you're not familiar with it, here's how a Photoshop battle works: redditors (Reddit users) upload unedited interesting photos to the subreddit and its subscribers are encouraged to photoshop the images in any way they want and submit the artwork in the comments section where they are voted on by the community. The more votes a particular photo manipulation generates, the higher in the section it is displayed, and the one that receives the most points "wins" the battle.

Currently, the time-sensitive and competitive /r/photoshopbattles is the 31st biggest subreddit with over 15M subscribers. On average, 111 funny photos appear on it every day, receiving 310 comments during their first 24 hours. One time, a picture of Norwegian prime minister Erna Solberg pouring coffee sparked a Photoshop battle. Redditors used the photo to put Solberg in Star Wars, Jurassic Park, and Game of Thrones, among many other scenarios. It escalated up to a point where the politician herself noticed what was going on and acknowledged the photo editing competition. "I realize that with the facial expression I have there, it can be tempting to use the picture in other contexts,” Solberg told VGTV."

I love how you even see the reflection of the cube in his eyes!

It's just that the yellow center should be across the white center and not perpendicular to it. Just saying it takes away a bit.

you can if you take two apart and swap a white piece for another color. Also, very fun to seal them back up and hand them out as gifts.

I love how the grimace on his face matches his probable frustration at being unable to solve the cube! lol

It may be more likely that a jaguar, originating in the Americas, would come across piranhas in the Amazon than a leopard in Africa or Asia would.

The addition of the rubike cube turns the fierce face into one of frustration the leopard is thinking why can't I solve this thing

I'm pretty sure that's the expression I have when trying to solve that, too.

Obviously fake. The cube has a white center square next to his left paw, a yellow center squared next to his right paw. The center square on the top surface can’t be one of those colors then, and it obviously isn’t red, green, blue or orange. It must be photoshopped. Gotcha! Some folks are so gullible.
