Blogs unveiled that BP released 3 manipulated photos.
It's amazing how terrible it is.

BP has released the originals and said they won't do it again :D

Unbelievable, yet unsurprising.

What bothers me is that the photoshopping didnt really HELP the company, I mean...so they made the colors pop on one, and put a screen closer to people in another, not sure why they even bothered.

Yeah. I think the original images were fine as they were. Pimping them up (and poorly so) just makes them look even stupider.

I think it's hilarious that they tried to make it look like the helicopter is flying and forgot to cut the tower.

Some of the pictures in the comments on gizmondo are better photoshopped than BP's :D
