Why you should never believe photo's

Recently someone was complaining that people didn't believe in his pics (well it was more than that but you get the idea), happens quite frequently here.

Anyway here is a good example for developing a healthy scepticism...

Someone stole this guys pics and set up their own website with the pictures doctored.

How often have you seen pics like this on the net and believed it immedialty?

No, I've never seen pics like this I believed. So are you saying have a healthy does of skepticism for all pictures we see...history books, newspapers, etc.? How do we know those aren't doctored as well?

Hmmm that's a good example of some photoshopping....and I believe skepticsm is healthy...however, I think we should not immediatly make assumptions about pictures that are posted

Never. I'm shocked when people actually buy pics like that, but for some reason they do...
