I am completely against photoshop in magazines that is used to make the subject look more "perfect". If someone is going to be on the cover doesn't that make them good enough as is. They would be going onto the cover if people didn't look up to them so why should they have to change. Self magazine tried to justify it's photoshopping by saying that they are just trying to make the person be at their best but i think that the fact that they made it onto a cover fir some reason is probably because they are being the best they can be. They don't need photoshop to help them with that.
