Photoshop is a powerful tool that can make or break an image, depending on the skill of the user. Unfortunately, not everyone possesses the Photoshop skills of a pro, resulting in some epic fails that are both hilarious and cringe-worthy.

Luckily, we have the r/Sh***yPhotoshop subreddit where people can share their terrible attempts at digital manipulation. This subreddit is a treasure trove of bad Photoshop blunders that will make you wonder why anyone even bothered.

One of the most common mishaps is when the proportions of an image are completely off. This can happen when someone tries to adjust the size or shape of an object, resulting in a distorted and unrealistic look.

You've probably seen this on ads or magazine covers, where models look freakishly tall and thin, or their limbs appear to be stretched out of proportion. But don't be fooled; these bad Photoshop fails aren't just limited to amateurs.

Even pros can make mistakes, intentional or not. So, the next time you feel bad about your own Photoshop skills, take solace in the fact that someone out there is probably doing it worse.

And if you're feeling bold, go ahead and post your own Photoshop fail on the subreddit for a good laugh.

One of the most common blunders in photo manipulation is when someone attempts to remove an object from an image but fails to blend the edges seamlessly. As a result, an unappealing "cut-out" effect is created, making it glaringly apparent that the object has been pasted onto the background.

This blunder is a dead giveaway that the photo has been tampered with and can shatter the illusion of a seamless image. But there are so many mistakes here, whos really keeping track?
