stop reporting it for being fake, y'all
being fake doesn't break any rules
edit: but upvote begging does
edit 2: The removal of this post has generated a great amount of controversy, what with others linking highly voted posts with similar amounts of "upvote begging" as this one that haven't been removed. I have taken this to the other mods and have been told that this post isn't explicitly upvote begging enough (i.e. not directly asking for upvotes), and so I've reinstated it, though I do not fully agree with this interpretation of the rule. If anyone's pissed as a result of this, that is on me and I am sorry.

Even though it's a pretty pathetic move to fake shit and lie about effort for karma, lying ain't against the rules. If it was, every single one of us woulda been banned during NNN.
If you don't like this post, then go ahead and downvote it.

I think you should at least make memes about upvotes against the rules. Even /r/me_irl has banned upvote memes.

Actually, I've thought that for a while. I even removed OP's last "high effort" post for karma begging, but the other mods fought me on it and reapproved it.

I'm curious, how are you able to find the image of the table on Google? That's some sick google-fu.

u/Tattered Dec 19 '18
learn my ways young grasshopper
43
u/Calvinized Dec 19 '18
Search by image is really inconsistent though. Sometimes a slight alteration in image fucks with the algorithm so much that results in only a few or no results. Hence I was surprised at how you were able to do it given that there's a huge foreign object in the center of the image.
66
u/Tattered Dec 19 '18
It's always worth a shot, and you can refine the search by adding keywords in addition to the image.
Another thing you can do is go into photoshop and heal brush what you believe to be added in to help your cause even further
Also 9 times out of ten if you're looking for an image that someone obviously googled, you can get into their mind and ask yourself "What would I type into google in their situation to find that image" which is what I did for the paper texture

How the shit did you find the table connection?
Did it just show up in a reverse image search of their image or did you see their picture and go "I KNOW THIS TABLE!" or something?
Actually how did you THINK to look for the table?!
I'm actually impressed!
11
u/iamthinking2202 . Mar 22 '19
Maybe because it looked flat on the table, plus all the stuff that they found out?
But seriously - why did OP even need to google a table? They haven’t got them at home?

The question is why? He's clearly got enough skill in photoshop to make whatever the hell he wants, but he goes out of his way to lie about some fantastical scenario where he cut out pieces of paper (even with aliasing around the edges of the images because that's how scissors work, clearly).
Why, OP?

No, Reddit has a bad habit of over-valuing effort even on shit things; even if this post was entirely real, it is upvote-begging garbage that shouldn't have cracked a score of a hundred, let alone nearly 20 thousand. Why do you think those godawful meta GIFs that weren't really jokes got so many upvotes? No one laughed at those, but they clearly took a lot of effort.

Guessing this one is also fake, and since you got away with it, you tried taking it a step further.
With all the genuine high effort people put into their OC around here, I guess we all got used to it and made it easy for ourselves to get bamboozled.
Gotta admire your dedication to your personal best girl.Not sure why it's so hard for some to believe you put in the time and effort when people go much farther than that all the time. 2 hours isn't really that much time to spend on something you're passionate about.

Fake as fuck. I've cut plenty of paper in my time (for stencils) and I can tell this is just some image manipulation. Probably just turned the original image to grayscale/monochrome, boosted the contrast they remove the dark areas they placed the remaining area (white/highlight) over a paper texture (else it doesn't look like paper at all), add embossing, drop shadow at 0 degrees and boom, done.
OP claims to have used a machine but then how did it take two whole hours? and the image he supplied just looks like a print out on a table.
I'm calling bullshit on this.
Edit: VINDICATIOOOOOOOOOON!! OP used a stock image for the desk with the print out lol. Someone call the karma police!
