Today, there was a story called "Looking Good" about fashion in school that ran in the local newspaper. On the front page of that section it featured a picture of my class. I was photoshopped out. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, formal portraits of my entire class were posted online, with about five photos per person. As my mom was looking at them, she was commenting about how pretty all my classmates look. When she got to my photos, all she had to say was, "Ugh". FML
Today, I saw myself on the news. I was one of the random passers by they had filmed for their story on the "Fat Epidemic." FML
Today, I was happy because my exact shirt and sweater were in Seventeen Magazine. They were in the "What not to wear" category. FML
Today, I went to my school to take my yearbook picture. I was wearing a shirt that said ANALOG on the front. When I bent in to take the picture, part of my shirt overlapped itself. Now I'm known as the ANAL kid in the yearbook. FML
Today, after weeks of sorting, inspecting, and waiting, my high school's yearbooks were distributed. I'd searched carefully for photo errors and was proud to say there were none. That is, until someone told me that a boy on the last page was flipping the camera the bird. FML
Today, I was looking through pictures on Facebook. There was a picture of me and my friends with the caption "I love you guys!" below. I had been cropped out. FML
Today, when I visited my grandmother at her nursing home, I was looking at pictures she had of all the grandkids. All were normal graduation pictures etc. but mine was a cutout where she made me skinnier. FML
Today, we got our family pictures back from the printers. I complained to my mom about the ones she picked. "Oh don't worry," she said. "I had them photoshop out your gut." I was talking about my smile. FML
Today, I saw my picture in an architecture magazine. I'm not an architect. I was walking up a flight of "magnificently built" stairs as my skirt lifted to show an absence of underwear. FML
Today, it was picture day at my school. After I got home, I realized my shirt was on inside out… and backwards. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

is there any chance you might be on your school's "do not photograph" list? even if you have no reason to be- it's usually for safety reasons, like if a mom and a child are trying to hide from an abusive ex-husband- sometimes the school screws up or your parents fill out a form wrong.

Either it's a legal thing or you need to write down "improve self image because ugly people get edited out" on your To Do list.

But was it because of your face or the way you dress?

You should definably complain. Take to the school board!

Ummm, I can only assume that you were actually just cropped out. You'd have to look REALLY bad for someone to bother to take the time to photoshop you out of that picture.

Tell to the curious you were sick.

You definately need to check and see if you were "photoshopped" or "cropped" out. There is a BIG difference. I worked at a newspaper for 4 years in the newsroom as a photographer, and it is in fact illegal to photoshop people out of or into photos for a newspaper.
