Microsoft Photoshop Skill is a Big Question Mark

I cannot believe that a giant company like Microsoft can make such a mistake. A simple picture of 3 person in a meeting room becomes a big hoo-ha. Firstly, because of Microsoft insensitive to details, like their amateur photoshop skill to replace the head of a black person to a white person. Secondly, their insensitive towards race related matter. What is wrong with a black person on a Poland website. Thirdly, their sloppy job of replacing it back with the original  but forgetting to re-align the text box properly. Here is the original undisputed picture. Edited one on the Poland website after the break.

Here is the one that is replaced with a White person’s head. Look at the hand. Microsoft did not even look into the details. I wonder what is in the mind of this person who thought of this idea of replacing it with a white man. And also, the person who approved the picture after the editing. You don’t need to be an expert to see all the flaws.

So, after CNET spotted the mistake and this information goes viral on social network like Twitter, Microsoft acted quickly to apologize on Twitter.

So, Microsoft did change back the picture but look at the text box alignment. It is out and this incident happened more than 20 hours ago. I seriously think that Microsoft ought to think deeply into this matter. It is not the matter of Photoshopping the picture. It is a matter of how insensitive Microsoft is towards race related issue and how their attempt to remedy the situation is making a mockery out of the Internet world.
