Nevermind... Flower link is gone


As for the photo, it would be simple to do that in photoshop. 5 Minute job if you had the photo of the person you wanted to put in.

haha yah i figured... unless there is some photoshop expert that can analyze it. The story is someone took the pic, and after they developed it, that ghost appeared.. its cheezy and easy to fake. But i wasnt sure if there was a way to analyze it and see if it was added to the image afterwoulds.

I'll have a look at the EXIF data on it and see what it says:




According to it, it has no record of the image ever being taken by a camera. That particular image file was created using Adobe. Kind of closes the case for us

thanks for clearing that up (if anyone really cared about it anyway!)

No problem!

You just inspired me though, so here is my effort at a fake ghost photo. The original image is an actual photo i took at a local convict cemetery... i just added the elizabethan-era people in myself

thats even better then the other one!!!

Yeah, it is better, lol.

The first one looks like a distorted picture of the Godfather.

The way i see it, they probably just took a picture of someone they knew in that pose and used photoshop's transparency settings to put it into the other image... biggest mistake they made is saving it as a new image file. If they had saved the new layer into the original photo it would have been a little harder to pick apart the Exif data... but not too hard

Oh, and thanks for liking my ghost hoax. I just used a photo i had taken and a photo i just took of my great great grandparents' photo on the wall.

Its pictures like that, that ruin everything! Why do people feel the need to fake this stuff?!? obviously that person is not gonna get famous from this crappy picture, so why do it. These fakers are dubunkers dreams come tru and it totally ruins the real pictures! Mods, if you want to close this thread feel free... i apologize for putting this picture up, but i wasnt sure if it was real or fake.

Also, i apologize if i am on a posting spree.. i just had a party and everyone left and im still awake and drunk!
