Sadly, I thought she was cuter before she weighed 85 pounds. The touch-up was pretty impressive, but I could detect a lot of unnaturalness about the final product. You get that when you work with graphics all the time, even if you're not very good at it.

Yeah, that's a terrible job -- she was better off before the pixel pushing. I found another one following a link from that -- again, the girl is way cuter to begin with and this should really be called a fakeover, she looks so unreal in the final pictrure:

Ugh. They really should call it "how to take a normal, perfectly fine looking woman and turn her into what looks like a casualty of the plastic surgery industry."

I'll spare you the rant about the unrealistic expectations placed on females in society. ;)

I agree, it's horrible that people can manipulate photos like this, and its definitely unrealistic since no guy like anorexic chicks.

i love watching "extreme relooking" tv shows where they find ordinary people with weight and skin problems and so on, and they just make them with the same "GI-Joe square" chin and bleach teeth. Most women look like a creature between Jennifer Aniston and Patrick Swayze, and for men.. well, it's pretty much the same but in reverse order...
the reason is simple, the plastic surgeon is always the same guy and must have been a Marvel comics penciler...

how wonderful.

i'm pretty sure there are some videos from these shows on youtube !

I think some may have seen this, but it is still worth viewing.

83 zombies. Couldn't figure out how to use the shotgun until after I lost. I've played that game before, though I don't remember when or where.

You need to get it out of the window. I just had another bash and got 105.454m this being the 8109th best throw out of 35 million. I would say that's good, but 35 million plays of a paper plane simulator could be indicative of what's wrong with the world today.... :?

Yes, out of a world of over 6 billion poeple there's not enough participation in important things like thig!

I hit just below the window - 9.561 or whatever

Couldn't seem to get the hang of throwing it properly...most times it just kinda crashed shortly/immediately after crossing the line. Once I managed 8.-something and was in sight of the window, but that was it, lol.

To manage some speed you have to drag to the left, then quickly to the right.

Throwing from a very low position, I managed 43m, but I'm not enjoying this game. Besides the scrolling isn't convincing, neither the physics.
