An example of how to troll in a friendly way

James Fridman makes your vacation or profile photos much more interesting if you ask him for it. The Photoshop artist acts as a friendly troll on X (fjamie013 on the platform formerly known as Twitter), where he changes images at the request of people who send them in. His portfolio of nonsensical retouches is hilarious.

This is James Fridman, the Photoshop wizard on X

With almost 2 million followers, the photo editing wizard has become a Twitter/X celebrity. Every day he receives countless requests to modify people's photos. He complies with the requests, but... in his own way.

Take away the trash lady...

... and you'll end up with a whole lot of trash.

Ties with the underworld

Want to get rid of a TV? Fridman knows some people.

We LOVE this one!

She's the Tooth Ferry and a Princess at the same time. Lovely job, Fridman!

That long metal thing in Paris

Yes, really annoying how it always ruins the background of people's photos.

Help against bullies

We've gone all the way back to the 80s and 70s for these special haircuts. Now look who's laughing!

Creative solutions

Does her hand look less weird now that she has a turkey in it? Maybe not, but it's very funny!

What's a 'normal size' anyway?

We wouldn't have known how to fix this picture either.

Horsing around

Why fix the hand if you can also put a horse under it? Much better!

Another awkward hand

This time, the solution is not a horse or a turkey, but scissors. What's the artist implying here? Anyone getting killed soon, or needs a haircut?

It's only relative

Either he looks older or you look older; it's your choice.

A real challenge

What to do with these ladies and their inexplainable poses? Why, yes! A billiard!

Its natural habitat

Do you want the octopus in a natural way? Go underwater!

We need an expert for this one

So he put a plumber in the picture to take care of the pipe. Excellent plan.

Switching a photo bomber for a statue: nice job

Yes, the early Buddhists had cell phones. This checks out.

Remote. And happy.

Mission accomplished.

Could you make this more interesting?

Wow! Well, you couldn't have asked for a better person to do it.

Photoshop basics

If you cut out the watermark, you break the photo.

Allergic to nuts?

Sorry about that, get well soon!

'I tied my best'

The photo definitely looks less weird now. Right?

'What boyfriend?'

You were dating a shrub all along!

Much closer

Sometimes you love your significant other so much that you just want to crawl into their skin.

'His love will never deklein'

You can take the boy out of the CK shirt, but you can never take CK out of the boy.

Masks for COVID

You forgot the masks? How many people got infected that day?

Remove all the extra items

Including the mirror.

One of our favorites

A real metal band.

Focus problems

Maybe next time just take a photo of the skyline (without yourself in front of it), if that's what you're most interested in.

When you ask for lightning...

James Fridman will give you a thunderbolt, although he does not guarantee that you won't be blown away by it. Literally.

More bad boy

Fannypacks prohibited. "The police are on their way."
That will do it.

Photobomb fixed

What if a has spoiled your photo?
"What friend?"

Do you want to be a Boxer?

Wish granted.

Go to a cooler place?

Nothing cooler than a freezer.

If you don't specify your wish...

You may get something you didn't mean to ask for.
(There's two guys with a white hat!)

More leaves?

That was easy…

Do you want to look older?

You only need to ask and Fridman will turn you into The Golden Girls.

Do you want to look more Daddy?

There you have it. He's not just a good Photoshopper but also a comedian.

Sometimes he says no, but that's great too

Sometimes, the artist receives requests such as Cesar's, who asked for a photo without the birthmark on the skin of his face (or with a more modest one). James Fridman explains that he cannot do that because he believes we have to learn to love our individual features and, in addition, this mark seems "cool." A lesson in self-esteem.

Another kind message

Another example of James Fridman's ethics: Casey asked him for a “clean face” to see how she would be without acne. The answer consisted of encouraging words, a recommendation to go to a dermatologist, and not a single change in the photo.

My face in the skyline on the Bean?

It seems that James Fridman had a better idea.

If you ask to remove something...

Know that you can always substitute it for something worse.

Much better!

They basically go from holding up a frat boy who's unable to stand to Saving Private Ryan.

Your hands look weird, you say?

Now how about that pole?

Creative solution

That's what you get when you ask James Fridman to make a change.

A different angle

You ask, he provides. You're welcome, family.

Erase the guy in the back

Is that guy bothering you? Out with him!

Don't we all want to touch the top of the Eiffel tower?

Only the lucky ones like Paige actually get to do it.

What a strange thing to ask...

Why did they want a deer with that sheep? Either way, here they have it.

Shorter than my boyfriend

But how much shorter? That's the thing, you need to specify that.

Together in the garden?

Asked and delivered. James Fridman always betting on love.

Crooked tie

Problem fixed. Of course, someone hold the young man.

A realistic bear

Reality would dictate that you'd never have been able to send in the photo in the first place.

Remove the light?

It is not a good idea but customer's king...

A little more green....

Did he go overboard? No, it's just right.

When you don't specify the assignment

James Fridman sticks to the letter. He only, and exactly, does what the petitioner asks.

Show her teeth?

You can expect him to come up with something strange.

You, me and Darth Vader

'David, I'm your girlfriend'

Just a little smaller...

James Fridman delivered what she asked. Another satisfied customer.

Make the hand make sense

We'll just build a whole bus around it.

Alexei got what he deserved

I wish a was a little bit taller...

Rebecca wanted her boyfriend's feet to look shorter

And Rebecca got what she asked for.

Do you want wings?

Wings you get.

Yes, this makes a whole lot more sense

Now the guys are no longer out of place. And by the way, congratulations on the engagement, love birds!
