Photoshop wizard, James Fridman (previously here, here, and here), has been trolling people for quite some time now. But everyone is still sending him their pictures asking James to tweak 'em. And since the man has a knack for finding the most literal interpretation of the requests he receives, he's still accepting them.

True, this James chap had got his heart in the right place. I remember another one where he advised a kid to be himself.
Load More Replies...She is absolutely adorable! I hope she realizes how pretty she already is ;)
I'm thinner than her and would kill for that body. She's what we used to call healthy
Help im cryign/pos I have that body type
Load More Replies...I don't get it. She looks good? Her proportions are right, everything is just a bit bigger than on skinny girls. But better that way than bad proportions. Thin without boobs and butt wouldn't be any better.
exactly- she isn't FAT, looks healthy, who gives a damn if she ain't skinny (apart from, sadly, herself)
Load More Replies...It's a hard lesson to learn when so many people harass you on the daily.
I feel sad that this absolutely beautiful young lady doesn't feel she is enough. Skinny isn't all it's cracked up to be!
young lady, you ARE pretty. Some women are curvier than others, embrace your body and love who you are!
What a beautiful thing to say. It's nice that the photo shop genius has a heart of gold as well as a wicked sense of humour.
She should have worded it different. I would want a photoshop expert to do the same for me, but not for me to look "pretty" it's for me to have a goal body look in mind. What I would look like if I lost all this weight would make me feel more motivated to lose it.
You said it more elegantly than I did, and I'm me so I'm going to get downvotes for sure, haha.
Load More Replies...She is not fat. She has a round face, which looks fuller, nice size boobs and is wearing a sweater that does nothing for what looks like a possibly hot body. I'm willing to bet those jeans are no bigger than a size 12, more likely a 10. Put her in the right clothes, a little judicious makeup and O.M.G! You people who are calling this healthy young woman fat, are what is making her try to hide her body, and thus look fat.
I love James Fridman's work. Collecting all my courage to ask him how much money it would cost to get a picture of my daughter and my late mother as if they'd met. He is a great photoshop artist, nobody expects one artist to work for free. (He has a great sense of humour, too..and this answer to the girl was also very, very sweet!)
I think you look pretty damn good. Sorry to be crude but if your butt fits in that swing you ain't fat.
She's gorgeous. She doesn't need to be a stick figure to be stunning.
Little does she know she's already pretty. F**k I hate our society for making large people think they're ugly.
I think she's rather cute myself! (I also love women with a bit of meat on them! :) )
" I just want to see what I would look like if I was pretty" - - - - This girl is BEAUTIFUL, with a smile to match! Sadly, another victim of the **Media world, ** made to feel bad about her self/body image! The world of airbrushing/photo-shopping their models, making out that only thin flawless women are accepted in life, putting pressure on young girls/women like this to go under the knife, pay extortionate amount of money for promoted creams/potions/gym membership etc to be accepted somewhere in life.
She is so pretty. She has curves. Remember, Marilyn Monroe today would be considered overweight.
That is something a lot of people need to hear! After seeing a lot of his 'troll' posts before, this one is surprising, but it is a welcomed one. :')
Props to James. And girl, don't let anyone or anything tell you you aren't perfect the way you are.
"I just want to see what I would look like if I was pretty" You are and don't you let anyone tell you otherwise!
She's already very pretty, and not fat, either! i really hope she can learn to love the body she has.
I think he got it spot on. A smaller size doesn't equal pretty. I think this young lady is beautiful just as she is.
I just wanna know who told her she wasn't pretty, and why would she even care💁♀️🤷♀️! She s what they call "thick" nowadays, I got a Nephew who'll take you RIGHT NOW!
I understand and can relate to the "make me skinny" thing- but - She is so very pretty regardless. Excellent advice!
Also, avoid BPA (which is synthetic estrogen and is everywhere) as much as possible. Avoid other hormone disruptors. Don't eat hot food from plastic or with plastic. Get enough sleep.
You are very pretty just the way you are. But to stay healthy continue to eat right, (low sodium, unprocessed, food.)
I hate when people say this. That's such a lie that people post to make themselves look good or feel good. Why can't she get a picture of that? Yes she is pretty in her own right, and being skinny isn't really the definition of pretty. But i can feel this girl's frustration. I've excercised, ate all that the doctor said to, but nothing changed in my size. I've been laughed at, sneered, ignored, made fun of. I would have wanted a picture, that i thought i looked good in, to be made in what society deems as pretty... just so i could see it, too. What's wrong with that?
Oh sweetie, you are gorgeous, inside and out!! Having been where you are now, more than once, I can attest being slim did not make me a better person. It did however change how people viewed me and most of the time not for the better. I was a "thing".

she is so beautiful just the way she is!! i wish i could pull off that outfit :)
James Fridman really is an amazing person who cares about others. I'm so glad that he exists.
You're gorgeous girl! And I love skinny women. As James said: "skinny" doesn't equal "pretty" That's not to say skinny is or ain't pretty. It depends. And you shure is purdy! xxx
...it's those dimples...cute! -from a dad of two real-sized daughters
She IS pretty. Her weight might be hormone related...get checked for PCOS.
OMG BRYCE LYNCH/LAZAR/TJLER-YOU ARE SO DISGUSTING YOU PILE OF S**T RACIST A*****E HEARTLESS FUCKTARD B***H, JUST KILL YOURSELF NOW
i don't like any of my pics at all-i'm so embarrassed about my looks
Didn’t happen for me. Weird! It’s almost like I was born chubby..
Load More Replies...Lots of Skinny people are a55holes and this comment is why
Load More Replies...The master troll regularly posts his works on his Twitter account which already has over 1.57M followers. And they love James not only for his wicked sense of humor. Every now and then, he will refuse to carry out a request, usually if it has something to do with unrealistic beauty standards. He'll just share a heartwarming message about the person in the picture reminding us that there's no such thing as 'perfection.'

Feeling brave? You can send James a picture of yourself if you want it 'improved' as well. Just bear in mind his warning: "Do not submit any personal photos that you do not want to be made public."

I hate it when I get to end of a really good list. This one was hilarious
I’m a “Just Tina” too! Have had ppl assume my name was “Christina” and, when correcting a person 1 time, they thought I was saying my name was “Justina”..so I’ve learned to exaggerate the pause between the two..” Just....Tina”...LOL!
Load More Replies...there are easier ways to do these kind of things, but this guy just wanted to go a little extra.
Trolling is an art; unfortunately, you do not seem to master it very well. Merely being very offensive is not perceived as very offensive but rather as immature.
