Alien/creature thing caught on my camera.

Originally I was going to make an article called "How to fool people" but then not many people believed the image so I forgot about it.

That will be a hard one to pull yourself out.... :rofl:

Ah well... the picture was damn funny, it still makes me laugh when I look back at it. :devil:

Dude, I'm not gonna bash you for it being fake, but seriously - update your Photoshop. :p

^ Shows up in the image when you open it with Notepad.

I've been using photoshop for the last 6 or 7 years professionally as a designer.

All of you ignorant twats out there garbing on about drop shadow (err that would be in a separate layer to do one anyway) and the transparency on the leg, you have no idea what you are talking about. It would be like me trying to tell you your flaws on Linux because I have no idea on that.

The only way you could hoax this image (what ever the thing is, prolly a hyped up cat) is to have a flat image and movement filter blur it (horizontally) to keep the grain in the photo that consistant. It is easier to hoax sharp images than fuzzy ones, because fuzzy ones leave a lovely thick halo around objects which you can easily see an object was orginally there or dumped in.

Give the poor girl a break. She could be really freaked out. Seriously, even if it is a prank, it is nothing to do with the clue isn't really in the photo.

If it is a hoax, good job, keep up the sharp then motion blurred photo work because it looks pretty darn good!

Now my own opinion damnit! Wouldn't it be easier for smaller aliens to inhabit anything? Larger things usually die out first... it's natural selections process to do so on this planet - if you watch any evolution doco they tell you the smaller you are the better fit for survival you are as a species. It would also be easier for smaller things to move, live and travel in space - in relativity to our own size and this planet, that size seems like a pretty good size to be if you were an alien on this planet.

No I don't feel foolish at all because I know my profession. I explained how it could be done, I suggested it was a hoax, well forgive me if I went out to Foodland to do some shopping then came back and posted.

I still think it's good to keep an open mind. And the text file doesn't mean to much to me because the person said they tried to sharpen it anyways.

The only thing which alerted me to something kookie was the lingo they used - the person sounded too young to come up with the word "image editing" program.

Also, there were people making suggestions which photoshop just doesn't work like.

    • Yay, a forced new tab telling everyone edge just updated with a load of advertising in it twice as often as we currently get it. That'll never be abused. 😏
    • About bloody time. I have got PRs with hundred of files and the Web UI just struggling to even load the pages.
    • I wonder if it was applying secure boot certificates/dbx files?
    • I recently tried edge. It seems a lot better. A lot of the junk in it is gone. It seems less bloated and snappy.
    • Lethal fake phone chargers are still being sold on Amazon and eBay, UK watchdog warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels The UK consumer rights organization, Which?, is claiming that “potentially lethal knock-off chargers” are still being sold on online marketplaces seven years after it exposed the danger of these chargers. In its latest investigation, it bought 15 USB phone chargers from several online marketplaces and found they were missing key information, meaning they cannot be legally sold in the UK. Which? bought the 15 chargers from seven online marketplaces. These were Amazon (including Amazon Haul), AliExpress, B&Q Marketplace, Debenhams Marketplace, and eBay. It said that the chargers were so badly made that anyone using them was at risk of electric shock. Over half the chargers also posed fire and explosion risks. Of the chargers purchased, one was a fake Apple USB-C 35W power adaptor charger. To confuse buyers, the box was branded with an Apple logo, but testing found it to be a fake. Further testing picked up arcing sounds after 10 seconds of use, where a current jumps between two parts of the electrical circuit, which can cause fires, explosions, or electric shock. The manufacturers of this particular charger also put modeling clay inside it to make it feel more weighty, robust, and genuine. Not all of the chargers were technically faulty; however, some were missing key packaging, markings, and documentation, meaning they can’t be sold in the UK legally. Which? said that it is now campaigning alongside a coalition of safety groups and businesses for new laws that make online marketplaces responsible for ensuring the safety of products that they choose to list on their websites. It also said the government needs to start using powers under the Product Regulation and Metrology Act, which was adopted last July, to impose safety requirements on online marketplaces via secondary legislation, but so far, there have been delays. No matter what country you are in, be sure to properly research what you are buying and only buy authentic chargers to prevent fires. You can read more about Which?’s research here.
