the retouching is really bad. even my mom could tell the mouth is fake.

k-rocka's picture 428 pencils

Is it the retouching or is it just because you know that a person can't have teeth like that?

The PS work is pretty well done. I don't know what I'd change on it. It looks fake, well, because he'd need one helluva strong toothbrush with chompers like that.

A. J. SMITH's picture 2850 pencils

I too could tell it was fake (I'm not a mum though) but I think the re-touching is fine, its cos its a bad ad.

It's only an ad.

Doin' it for the points

San Pateste's picture 139 pencils

really bad photoshop, and the concept... pf.....royal shit

rikitiki's picture 634 pencils

people always say "really bad photoshop"....but i'd be willing to bet some of the people saying that really couldn't do a better job themselves.

i'm a copywriter. looks fine to me (consumers only spend 5 seconds looking at the ad anyway right?).

Overblown idea.
A bit of subtle sophistication, please!

Does "The Thorpedo" know about shark tooth syndrome? Someone should tell him.

We HAD Thorpe, Mini. He's retired. Putting those big feet out to pasture! ;)

ellehcimeo's picture 3534 pencils

Minimum- then I put you in charge of telling him about the "swimmers shark teeth syndrome"

Rog's picture 6110 pencils

No. He knows about Shark's FEET syndrome though.
Size 16, I believe! ;)

>>>> That's not an ad. THIS is an ad.

ellehcimeo's picture 3534 pencils

Reeeheeeeheeaaalllllyyy! size 16 eh? Hmm. Interesting and useful and exciting.

A. J. SMITH's picture 2850 pencils

Just to put the whole SIZE thing straight, I'm a tall man, with big feet and big hands, and I'll have you know, I've got a tiny penis.

So there.

Minimum's picture 1496 pencils

I can tell you that I am a size 12 in shoes and that it's more of a nuicense than a buff to me really. Never met a girl that went...oooeeeh nice feetsize. More: I want to buy shoes, these look great, sorry dont have them in your size.

Size 9, like everybody else - Joe Toye

Dahling, we never let you know that we notice your shoe size. How could we be coy if we were all "OH MY GOD. Look at your feet. Come with me right now!" We like to be demure sometimes.

Disco Munky's picture 3934 pencils

Demure eh?

You know that shoe thing isn't really real.

I'l got massive feet and a tiny.....no, wait it's the other way round. Honest

Doin' it for the points

ellehcimeo's picture 3534 pencils
