Can’t find one decent picture of yourself for your social network, résumé, blog or any other digital life need? Do you reckon that people who steal profile pictures from other people should receive Professional Help? So do I, but I’m drifting off subject, so let’s stick to Pixoo.us, a professional picture retouching service that allows users to upload a picture of themselves and get it pimped up or photoshopped to accentuate one’s better looks. Here’s how it works: you submit a picture and indicate what you like to have done with it, as in get a smart, serious, professional, casual look, and the graphic designers at the other side of the screen retouch it to fit your wishes, and then charge you $15 for the service. If you are feeling a bit skeptic, take a look at some of the examples of previous jobs done by Pixoo.us.
“Not completely satisfied with your digital profile picture? As you develop your digital life, your picture plays an increasingly important role. Whether you use it for social utility websites like MySpace and Facebook, social networking sites like LinkedIn or Xing or in instant messaging programs like Skype or MSN messenger, your photo is a key part of that important first impression that can say so much about you... sometimes more than your own words!”
Some people are plainly not picture perfect, and definitely could use some Photoshop help, and there is no harm in that, as it’s one’s own picture that gets slightly revamped, and after all if top models of all people get their pics retouched, it would only seem fair to make it available for everyman as well.
Are there really so much people who are willing to pay $15 for this service? Wouldn’t it be easier and cheaper to post some other picture not depicting yourself, but maybe a work of art you like or some other random shot?
