thanks for helping people to lie
- netsharc 8mo agoGeez, I'm reminded of a business student's idea of "Uber for photoshoppers" (this is ~20 years ago): you upload your picture, you say what you want changed, and I guess you pick which photoshopper's work looks convincing from a marketplace of them... He had a website, and the sample pic is a girl lying on her back, and in the "after" picture she's wearing a bigger cup-size..
- raffa667 8mo agoThis is intentionally much narrower: no custom requests, no creative edits. It only does technical corrections that photographers already apply (lighting, white balance, perspective, sharpness). Think more automated Lightroom than crowdsourced Photoshop.

- raffa667 8mo agoI don’t see it as lying any more than adjusting exposure or white balance on a camera does. It doesn’t add or remove anything from the scene, it just fixes bad lighting, color cast, perspective, and sharpness, basically what any decent photographer already does in post. If anything, it helps photos reflect how the place actually looks in real life instead of dark, crooked, yellowish snapshots.
