Don't see much there to get, but please always post the celeb's name (even if you think it's obvious) along with any pics or it can't be searched for later

Love that pic, ben_so.

 

Are you still doing xrays, c-through?
This thread got critiqued to death because of unknown differing standards of photoshop manipulation.
It evolved and devolved over and over into stagnation where no one wants to post anything anymore. Usually because of criticism and/or being accused of doing a technique wrong. It's sad because this was a major pull to phun years ago.
Would it be better to start a new thread with a more defined rule set?

 

I only offered criticism when it was warranted, when there was obvious fakery being shown. It's not wrong to try and keep the thread pure - there's already a fakes thread, if that's what you're into, post it there, don't try and mislead people.

The rules haven't changed - just some of us don't have the time to do it as much anymore, besides there isn't as much good material to work with as there's not as many paps posting candids or HQ event photos - not sure if the lack of publishing in print is responsible, or that the celebs are just putting their own pics that they choose on their own social media instead. Also, there seems to be more awareness of clothing and covering up that there didn't used to be when a hot flash could reveal more underneath.

Don't blame me for the slowdown in the thread, I have always welcomed people to get photoshop or other software and try it for themselves, but to do it the right way. Start with the basics Brightness, Contrast, Saturation, and Hue adjustments. Don't use Burn & Dodge tools as they are spot tools not area tools, and can easily make things look there that aren't. I always posted the originals along with my images so people could try it for themselves (and hoped they would) as most images do not make good source material for an x-ray. I tried to help out in the amateur x-ray thread but that was even less percentage of success. Too many LQ, grainy, poorly lit, or the wrong clothing to get anything out of.

Some good examples of better techniques that regularly post are choi, iCeleb, Flibber, and The Vulcan to name a few, so the thread's not dead, but just not a lot of good material to work with as far as I can see.

 

Yeah, probably a combination of things along with social media and celebs posting so many lq pics with filters already applied. This time of year doesn't help either. It's pretty hard to see through a winter jacket. Not blaming you or anyone else for anything. That is my observation after reading threw every page of the thread since the beginning and how slow it has become vs how active it was back in the day. On the contrary, I appreciate your and everyone else's time, effort and contributions which is why I was asking if you're still working on stuff.

 

I wish there were more pics to work on - I'm just not seeing the quantity I used to see 5-10+ years ago. I appreciate you going through the whole thread, and wish some of the older stuff was still available, but image hosts have come and gone, and I had a drive failure a while ago so I lost a lot of my originals. I still get a chuckle when I see some of my work before I watermarked my pics show up on celeb sites (uncredited of course), so I guess they liked it.
