Utah Students Upset About Altered Yearbook Pics

[Rick-o]

Someone overstepping their authority? IMO, if the outfits were acceptable during class, why would someone try to censor the yearbook pics? Absolutely mind blowing to me. :bomb:


"A group of Utah high school students said they were surprised and upset to discover their school yearbook photos were digitally altered, with sleeves and higher necklines drawn on to cover bare skin.

Several students at Wasatch High School in Heber City said their outfits were in line with the public school's dress code, and they've worn them on campus many times."

Isn't religion fun?

And it was done almost randomly, that's the maddening part.

What school has a budget for digital retouching?

Judging from the quality of the work, certainly not this school.

Some of the changes made no sense - notably the weird stuff they did with the hair in a couple of cases - but for the brunette in the jean-vest with the cut-off sleeves and the one that they turned into a redhead, the new shirts are quite flattering.

My 3rd grader's school photos had a "retouch" option when ordering, it was an extra $10? I think.

my youngest had a huge scrape on her face from taking the most awesome face plant known to man playing soccer and I *still* would never retouch it out.

A few minutes old on the left, a few days old on the right. =)
