My Picture that lies shows the most well known professional basketball player, Lebron James, with a jersey on of my favorite team, the Detroit Pistons. Though Lebron James will probably never play on the Pistons, I created a fanatsy picture that he did. I first got a picture of a current Pistons player, then a picture of Lebron James, and superimposed the head onto the body. Because there were some issues with the hairstyle differences and sizes differences, I had to use the clone stamp to create the appearance that it was not altered. The skin tones of the two athletes were different so I had to use the lightness tool in the enhance bar to blend the two together. To enhance the photo further, I selected everything in the background and took out the color to make it black and white. The final effect that I put in my picture was to put in text that read Lebron James lands in the Motor City, to aid anyone who is not very familiar with basketball in understanding my picture.
I do not beleive this is harmful in anyway, in less it is used to confuse or misled the viewer. I did it more as a joke, that adament basketball players will most liekely understand.
joel, this is crazy. you really altered which team he is on
