No lighting effect on sign. Letters look fake. Faker. What do you think?
-
sign looks odd (light effect) but the lettering is not a font.
Have any of the ones you have posted here questioning turned out to be legit?
-
Nope. The font looks hand drawn with a paint tool. Looks purposefully crappy.
-
Could be one of those stinky gold ink pens and just a crappy resize algorhythm.
-
Fake. The whole sign was likely added in. Bastard apparently doesn't even know how to antialias.
-
fake fake fake... no sign keeps a perfectly straight corner when held up, it will bend without a hand somewhere near it... plus, theres no hands and not slight bend in the middle that would keep it upright... not to mention that in order to be holding it with two hands she would have to have her left shoulder over more and her upper arm would be in the pic...
-
The sign is obviously pasted on. Look at the jaggies. Also, how is she supposedly holding it? And yes, the letters look just like they were drawn in a paint program.

Fake.
Look at the edge of the 'paper'
The jagged pixels gives it away as a paint program.
Plus the lack of appendages and the akward pose.
She is a witch! Burn her! :twisted:
-
Badly done MSPaint picture, so obvious.
-
yeah, i dont know if Neon Beige is a color but thats what the sign looks like...
-
Fake. The sign looks like it was put there. I bet it was pasted over someone. Plus, it doesnt look like she's holding anything by the way she is leaning
-
100% El-fake-0.
Complete lack of lighting effects aside - the sign itself is fake. Look at the aliasing (jaggies) around the edges. As if it were drawn in Paintshop or some other meager graphics program.

Who is the one blind guy that voted 'no'?
This is more obvious then the chick standing outside.

The one who faked it, maybe?

Woah...deja vu!

I'm beginning to wonder if it's the same person that's sending all of the fakes in. I can't see why so many people would try it...
-
Boredom. :P
-
I think there is someone behind what is supposed to be the sign. If you look to the left of the "T", it looks like it could be a shoulder.
-
anyone found the original yet? Where is the one that seems to always be able to find it?

Hand lettered signs are hardly ever in a "font." Fonts are a thing used by mechanical devices such as a printer.

what?? I'm not sure exactly what your'e getting at, but if you're saying that fonts can't look "hand-written" then you are wrong.
There's literally dozens and dozens of them out there that have a very organic, hand written look to them.
And sorry, your 2nd sentence makes no sense at all. Fonts are fonts. Their relationship to a printer is irrelevant to their appearance. (other than, of course, the dpi)
Check out www.1001freefonts.com...tons of unusual fonts there.

Cool site Chris. I like useing something other then Arial all the time.
font n.
1 A basin for holding baptismal water in a church.
2 A receptacle for holy water; a stoup.
3 The oil reservoir in an oil-burning lamp.
4 An abundant source; a fount: She was a font of wisdom and good sense.

yeah, I do some freelance graphic design. That site's a Godsend.
...interesting, I had no idea that was the other meaning of font.
-
Dictionary.com is a god send. :P
-
agreed.
I use it virtually daily.

The question was "Is Eva a fake?" A fake what? You all went and assumed the question was "Is this pictured doctored?" That wasn't the question. I think Eva is a real person, female even. So no "Eva is not a fake." Chalk up a vote for not reading into things (OH you want to interpret the Constitution literally though? Make up your mind EITHER you do OR you dont *sarcastic reference to my other post.* The world is not black and white).
Minor addition:
The solicitation for pictures says:
"To be Validated, your picture must include you with a sign/paper that has "Free Talk Live" or "FTL" visible on it. "
Does the picture meet this requirement? The only thing one can argue is who "you" is. Nothing in there about having to hold the sign or that it can't be added later or using software. I say Validate or change the "rule."
-
heh umm.... I appreciate sarcasm, but..... it's all in the delivery...
ya dork.
-
Its OK if you don't get it Chris. You must see the world in black and white as well.
ya achromaton

Suggestion denied.

I expected nothing less from you, Ian.

Definately a fake. The light on her face would reflect onto the poster.

Goddamn...we got a mean guest. Perhaps our guest should realize that this is Ian's forum and he can do whatever he fucking wants to. Hooray. Have a nice day kids!
