1 Doctored Magazine Covers Don't always believe what you see when it comes to photos.

2 She's a Franken-friend! Jennifer Aniston's publicist said that this June 2003 Redbook cover was a mash-up of three different photos; the actress reportedly considered legal action. Redbook said it only changed the color of her shirt and lengthened her hair.

3 The very next month, Redbook did it again. On the magazine's July 2003 cover, Julia Roberts' head comes from a paparazzi shot taken at the 2002 People's Choice awards. Her body, meanwhile, is from the "Notting Hill" movie premiere four years earlier.

4 The March 7, 2005, issue of Newsweek magazine combined Martha Stewart's face with a professional model's body to show what she might look like when she got out of prison. The magazine noted the photo was a fake, but some journalists said that the image could have easily been mistaken for the real thing.

5 This Star magazine cover trumpets a great scoop — Brad and Angelina caught together on vacation! Only, not so much. The magazine doctored two separate ocean-side pictures of each actor. Tucked away on page 8 was a disclaimer noting the image is a "composite of two photographs."

6 Using Photoshop to Alter Images As you have seen, it is amazing what photo editors can do to photos While their intentions sometimes seem harmless, they can have a major impact on many people Consider the messages these altered photos could have

7 “Evolution” Dove "Evolution" Video

8 Spears’ Airbrushed Images Britney Spears revealed her pre- airbrushed Candy campaign photos alongside the digitally enhanced images. The singer poses in a pink bathing suit for the ad. In the retouched version, her back tattoo is gone and her figure is trimmer.

9 Kim Kardashian's always championed her curvy figure. Recently, Kardashian fought back against photoshop allegations of her March 2009 Complex magazine photo spread, saying "So what: I have a little cellulite. What curvy girl doesn't!?" A before shot of Kardashian was featured on Complex.com for several hours, before the magazine replaced it with a Photoshopped version -- which cropped inches off the reality star's legs, whittled her waist and brightened her skin.

10 She has graced the cover of hundreds of magazines, but that doesn't mean that supermodel Kate Moss is always camera-ready. Moss arrived at Heathrow Airport Oct. 30, 2008, makeup-less, exposing a blotchy complexion and faded sore above her lip, pictured left. She debuted a completely different and refined look on the cover of British Vogue magazine that same month.

11 The June/July issue of Men's Fitness enhanced Andy Roddick's bicep muscles — so much so that Roddick said he stopped in his tracks when he saw the cover while walking through the airport. The tennis star dubbed the hulking masses "22-inch guns" and wrote on his blog, "If you can manage to stop laughing at the cover long enough, check out the article inside."

12 A January 2003 GQ cover shaved several inches off actress Kate Winslet's thighs. Winslet called the retouching "excessive." "I can tell you they've reduced the size of my legs by about a third," she said about the image.
