Photoshop

I believe that it is okay to use photoshop for personal innocent purposes, such as the cloud advertisement which plays on television where the mother photoshops the picture of the family so that they all will look good. This is for a very innocent purpose, and although it is a misrepresentation of what actually happened the purpose is to make a nice picture that the family can enjoy. It is positively not okay to photoshop a picture for a negative purpose, such as to make a person look bad. For instance, in the case of OJ being made blacker by the papers to show him in a negative light, this in my opinion is not okay. It is a lie to the public in order to get them to think differently about him. Also, pictures that are photoshopped to make people look worse, by adding weight or curves to them, is not right to do. Assumedly this is to make the person look bad, and this is a very negative thing.
