He means your actual picture above because of the filter/effect you've used.

It makes it look like you've been photoshopped in a bit haha.

Orange, that is DL's real room though, there's other photos he's posted in here in that room.

Oh, okay. LOL

I work in Photoshop all day so I can do things like that pretty easily.

It is quite easy what I did for this one.

I very quickly cut myself out to a new layer using the lasso tool. I then duplicated the original layer, then I blurred the original layer using Gaussian Blur 2%, then blurred it again. I then selected myself back on the other layer (alt-click on the layer on windows, command click on mac), chose feather for 1 pixels, inverted it, hit delete a few times so it feathered it, and I was done (and I did this because I quickly cut myself with the lasso, so it was jagged). All took maybe 2 minutes if that.

Oh, I also use Camera Raw import in Photoshop for all images, so I do fix the colors and stuff using camera raw as well (which you can see by the original pic below, it was darker as no flash was used), but I never spend that much time on it, it all depends on what mood I am in if I go cool or warm with the colors, this time around I went warm.

Here is the original (taken from the camera on my iMac) in case you are interested in seeing the difference (it was a pretty cool effect to the background naturally I gotta say)...
