I guess this means we're that much closer to ceding power to the machines (http://www.thecourier.com/manifest.htm) ...

[Shamus]

I got 10/10! I am amazed :). Now for the bonus round...

EDIT: hehe, bonus round got me: 0/4. lol those CG artists are good!

[yankeefan24]

9/10. i hate forks and spoons. jk

[lanray]

Totally guessing, though, on most of them. I just don't have an eye for this kind of thing.

[cycocelica]

7/10

[Benjamindaines]

8 out of 10

[Sharewaredemon]

7/10.

Some of those were really obvious, others were hard....

[notjustjay]

9/10.

The one that got me was the photo of the nails scattered on the table.

[ITASOR]

6/10

[killuminati]

7/10.

The three I got wrong though were the only ones I couldn't really decide on so guessed.

EDIT: Wow the bonus round was hard. I was 0/4! It's amazing what these CG artists can do.

[Aarow]

6/10, not very good.

[iMeowbot]

10/10 but I've seen it before :p

[mustard]

9/10.

The one that got me was the photo of the nails scattered on the table.

Me too those darn nails (9/10)

[Etrain]

Yup, those nails got me too. 9/10

[dvdh]

Got lucky apparently . . .

10/10 on the initial round and 4/4 on the bonus . . .

[OutThere]

Got a 9 out of 10...shouldn't have been fooled by those glasses, but I thought I saw an imperfection which would have hinted that they were real. :rolleyes:

[mrwildguitar]

eh....

6/10

I didn't even know what I was doing.

[ieani]

9/10.

The one that got me was the photo of the nails scattered on the table.

Its out of focus in the front and the back which is how I caught it. A camera would be one or the other.

9/10 btw. I thought the cups would be a trick one.

[iBlue]

7/10 i thought the golf ball was fake and thought glasses and the pile of nails were real... they [nails] were impressive CG

edit: and 3/4 on the bonus round. (i thought the dice were CG)

[kretzy]

5/10 :o

I blame the fact that I'm outside and there's glare on the screen.

[748s]

9/10. the grass got me.

[dornoforpyros]

9/10 I rule and CG sucks

[OutThere]

9/10 btw. I thought the cups would be a trick one.

Not true...guess you just got lucky. :rolleyes:

7/10. Boooo :rolleyes:

[miloblithe]

7/10. It seems like it would have been easier with slightly bigger pictures.

[Dandaman]

7/10

[Linkjeniero]

9/10. I was also fooled by the nails :o .

[jelloshotsrule]

i got 6/10. sad because i do 3d animation! hah.

[mac.FINN]

8/10 but the two I got wrong were obviously digitally enhanced/modified.

but I'm not bitter.:D

Actually though your answer to the photo or not was probably right, your statement about focus is wrong.
A photo most certainly can be out of focus in the front and back of an object.Depending upon your lens there is a focal plane, which is the area in focus, 1/3 rd of the focal plane is just ahead of whatever you are focused on and 2/3 rds of the focal plane is behind what you're focused on.

yeah, just fools logic it looks like.

Looks like I am in good company, 7 out of 10 here too.

[evoluzione]

9/10

the wine glass got me...

[Cadkiller]

Yes the majority got the same.

[Kernow]

10/10 but I've seen it before :p

5/10 and I've seen it before. :o

[aquajet]

9/10.

The one that got me was the photo of the nails scattered on the table.

Yeah, me too. 9/10.

My favorite picture was the bent nails with the ominous hammer shadow in the background.

[m-dogg]

8/10 - All the nails scattered on the table and the glasses are the ones that got me...

[macmanmatty]

6/10 - very good photos the wine glass looked fake

[Abstract]

I got 5/10 after reading this thread, and by simply going with my instincts and just general feeling rather than clues from this thread, I got 10/10 and 3/4 in the bonus the next time. :p

I did guess on the bonus, and I guessed wrong. That last photo of the glass is very poor quality, so I thought it was real since I didn't think anyone would design an image with so many defects on purpose. :D

[w_parietti22]

9/10 :)

[CubaTBird]

8/10:o

[gekko513]

9/10 ... I also got the nails CG on the focus.

I got the golf ball in the grass wrong. The grass looked too uniform.

7 out of 10.

I missed the wet table, the glasses and the bunch of nails.

Flenz

[Jay42]

7/10 Not really paying careful attention, just by gut instinct.

[someguy]

9/10

I thought the image of the nails lying around was real. :rolleyes:

[StarbucksSam]

4/10 - I'm embarassed. Never did I CLAIM to know this, though.

[zap2]

9/10

wow much better then i thought i would do

[Dynamyk]

Good! Seven out of ten answers were correct.
You have a good grip on reality. No need to see a therapist. Try again -- you might just qualify for the bonus round!

[Cadkiller]

6/4 in the bonusround !? *LOL*

Flenz

That is funny!

[QuarterSwede]

10/10. Dust gave it away almost every time. The nails on the table was hard but what clued me in was that every head had the same markings on it.

Bonus: 3/4. I thought for sure the dice were CG. Just such a great and clean shot!

[grapes911]

10/10 because I did this just few months ago.

THE FOCUSING IS FINE IN THAT PHOTO!!

I'm guessing you didn't read any of the posts after ieani's.

[yellow]

10 out of 10.. mainly because this same site (same pictures) was posted about a year ago. :)

Did I say year? I meant 6 months. Man, time flies.
