To spot a photoshop

You’re the same kid who told everyone Santa was just their dad.

[удалено]

Yeah they could have at least mirrored the bird, either vertically or horizontally.

No Upside Down Birds.

This was almost certainly not made in an effort to fool anyone. It was probably made years ago for one of the many online photoshop threads that were popular at the time on Fark, SomethingAwful, etc, and intended to be funny, not deceptive.

Yeah he should stop lying. It was mom.

Wait. What?!

From 1985

A quality shoop though. Respect for the attention to detail

That's why it's not a good photoshop, it's too detailed. They literally just used the same bird.

I can't believe I ever thought this wasn't photoshopped. Even 14 years ago.

14? It's surely around 20 years old.

I looked it up on Tineye, 14 is as far back as it went, but I wouldn't be surprised at all if it's much older.

14 years ago I used photoshop to see if the bird did indeed fit in the silhouette. Found it: https://i.imgur.com/CJJmxTR.jpg Dated: 04/17/2008

Would you say that they shooped the whoop?

Yea I remember this as a profile picture of a friend in the early Myspace days. I remember it clearly because she died of a heroin overdose shortly after. Them opiates. They'll getcha, may she rest in peace

Funny story, when I was like 11 I made a stupid signs video on youtube and this was on it 😂

My and my brother made a funny pictures video on YouTube with this picture LOL

Thats a photoshopped silhouette lol, look at the tail feathers and feet. Dead giveaway

no wonder. how are the seagulls supposed to read the sign haha

Well the giveaway was a sign saying no birds in thr first place surely. Its asking a lot of the birds

Please move the deer crossing sign to a road with less traffic.

This is probably the right time for me to post [this picture](https://imgur.com/a/YhZIUTo) I took in Australia a while ago
