LMAO! At the conspiracies here. I saw the image of Jay on the computer screen immediately after it was shot in Gold's Gym. It looked exactly like that minus the cover of Phil/Dex and that was straight out of the camera.
Do adjustments get made to photos? Of course there will always be some adjustment but not to the point where it is an entirely different image. It all depends on how you define - "That's photoshopped".
Some one posted a perfect example of what shitty photography - no photo shop and poor layout skills looks like with the Hardfitness "cover".
No one is denying Cutler looked good, but no human being looks like that, it's been heavily filtered, levels, contrast and color all have been altered to some extent as well as some "cleaning up" of certain areas. You can call that whatever you want, it's Photoshopped and that's the facts son.
Good photographers don't use Photoshop as a crutch to correct their shitty photography. If you are going for a certain look like the stylized one on this cover, then by all means use it, that's what it was made for that's all I'm sayin.
