"Why can't I quickly recreate the images I bought products from?" For the same reason your pancakes Dont look like the ones pictured on the Box. there was a time in america when advertisers used a "play dough" like substance in ice cream ads because it looked better and didnt melt under the studio lights. they also used plastic turkeys and Foam Rubber pancakes in print ads. the U.S. Government rightfully passed the "truth in advertising act" that advertisers MUST display an actual sample of the product being sold. yet the pictures on product packaging still look perfect. Why?? because the perfectly golden brown turkey pictured in the ads has been tinted with wood stain but the turkey is real and in compliance with Law. advertisers will go to great lengths to display their products in the BEST possible light and why sould they do otherwise.
