Description
This is why you shouldn't give your kids Barbie dolls. However, I had a lot of fun with this picture, especially the purple lips and ridiculous eyelashes.Update 1/24/07: I updated this picture with a more smoothed-out, cleaner version.
Update 12/23/09: Not intended to be a social commentary. Just for fun.
Update 8/12/10: There is now a TUTORIAL available for Barbie-ization: [link]

Wow, I would love to be able to use Photoshop like this! And from reading the comments I'm glad someone else has Photoshop Elements, it felt like I was the only one! I love how you made the skin look so...plastic, it's great!

No problem! About Photoshop Elements, does your one run realllllly slowly when you want to open a picture, because sometimes mine just stops and I have to close it down, which gets annoying if it has happened three times in a row. Also, your picture has inspired me even more to learn how to use Photoshop, as I'd love to get some photomanips on dA. So thanks for answering my previous message, and thanks for the inspiration!

No, I don't have that problem. It is probably tied to the performance of the computer, not the program itself...?
Your comment really made me happy! I appreciate the feedback and I'll check out your photomanips when you put them up.

Was this meant to be funny? beacuse even though I can see it as being funny its very much the harsh reality of the world in which we live. And this isn't coming from some distraught "emo" it's coming from one who played with barbies growing up and now bleaches her hair once a month, applies fake lashes and over uses the word"like". I'm not critizing ur work (if you thought maybe I was) but I'm just in awe of how a simple picture(s) can define a life.

No, it wasn't meant to be funny. I was fooling around with Photoshop Elements and the idea came up. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. What do you mean by "harsh reality"? Are you referring to how hard people have to work to meet beauty ideals? or to something else?

Flirtations-and-Rain In reply to mercury2356 [2009-01-03 08:39:57 +0000 UTC]
No, not it how hard they have to work for that but just how its sad and kind of disgusting and just harsh reality because its not like we don't have the choice but if we choose to be different we end up being the laughing stock of the corwd and thats just the "harsh reality" of life

Haha noo I used Photoshop Elements. The Paintshop comment earlier was referring to a different attempt at just changing someone else's hair color. It would be interesting to try out though and would probably work.

Thank you! Unfortunately I didn't pay attention to how long it took because I was just fooling around at first, not planning to make much out of it. So I'm sorry but I'm not sure.
