Dusco25 Posted August 26, 2011 Author Share Posted August 26, 2011 TMZ would not Photoshop a copyrighted image. Plus why would they want to? It is real.

Nihilus Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 TMZ would not Photoshop a copyrighted image. Plus why would they want to? It is real. Was thinking the source might have faked it, the image just looks a bit odd tbh, the way him and the other guy are just standing there standing impassively while their pictures are taken. I also don't know how reliable TMZ is, if they source the images themselves or if they are pulling it from a 3rd party site. I'm just sceptical since I'd have expected more news coverage if he was as close to death's door as that image implies.

DrCheese Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I doubt it is photoshopped, that's how very ill people look. They can go from looking totally fine to very bad/thin in a short period of time. Just look at how quickly Jack Layton (Canadian Party leader who died this week) went from (May 2011) to (July 2011) and then death.Steve has been looking thin/ill for quite some time, so it wouldn't surprise me that he looks the way he does now if his illness has gotten worse. I somehow doubt he would have quit as CEO if his condition was improving or had a chance to improve in the near future.

DCohen726 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 To say that mans condition looks bad would be an understatement. I fully believe that the image is NOT photoshop. It is quite possible that Steve just doesn't want to stop working, that its the only thing making him feel like his regular self, and thats also why he took so long to step aside. He's always seemed like a huge workaholic. But yeah, with the right make up and stuff its easy to look healthy for a presentation.

McCafe Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 OMG if this is a real pic I say he has less then a month to live. My prayers are with him and his Family. its sad as he looks like how the late NDP Leader of the Official Opposition (Canada) Jack Layton who passed away Monday August 22, 2011.

Gladiatorus Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I do think it's photoshopped. Squizzed 10 maybe 15% vertically. Everything in that picture looks a little too thin and tall (the other guy, the truck, floor tiles) IMO. I don't know, I'm no doctor but the pic might've been taken just comming out of a chemo session or something. I tend to think that someone in that particular condition wouldn't be able to stand on their own or wouldn't be allowed to leave bed to avoid any mishaps. TMZ would not Photoshop a copyrighted image. Plus why would they want to? It is real. To sell even more? (It might have been photoshopped by the original source though) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1021250-pic-steve-jobs-afer-resignation/page/2/#findComment-594264736 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tharp Daddy Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I'm not a fan of the man, but I would not wish that condition on anyway. My thoughts are with him and his family.

DocM Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I would have to play with it, but this type of analysis depends on an edit being done and re-saved using a lossy, compressed format like jpg, gif etc. I'm not that sure it would work with edits done in lossless, uncompressed image formats.

Dusco25 Posted August 27, 2011 Author Share Posted August 27, 2011 Just looked up the cancer he has... It makes people look this way in a very very short time span... I wish him the best of luck... My grandad passed away of lung cancer on the 6th and he never smoked, He never looked like this tho.. Thanks God... You just never know.

Boz Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Some people are in denial because they like Apple and they can't imagine him gone. He is in bad shape. This is obvious. It is most likely that cancer is taking him and we don't know how much time he has but the reality is that it's not good. He wouldn't have resigned Apple if he was capable. The photo is most likely not altered (I won't go into ethical aspects of publishing these photos when the man should be left alone to spend this time at least without media on him) because TMZ bought the photo from PacificCoastNews.
