That's cooler than the other side of the pillow. Next up, techniques for artists to add invisible content to their images which foil this method. "We resent that other people are deciding what's important in our images."

It's great for divorcees like myself :)

Neat, but somehow really wrong.

On the other hand, I enjoyed Neo vs Robocop, so I am feeling a bit hypocritical.

As long as this is used for entertainment and not by news agencies, I guess it is okay.

Modification of images as a source of worry is hardly new. Mother Jones magazine, IIRC, ran a cover article at least 25 years ago titled "The end of photography as evidence of anything." The pic shows the Transamerica tower in San Francisco with several UFOs doing a fly-by.

Still, this is pretty cool.

On the lighter side: Photoshop Hero may be next.
