    That's a little extreme Leonid! Nobody's talking about taking
    pictures of a rubbish piece of jewellery and then photoshopping it
    to death so that it looks like a lovely piece of jewellery when it's
    not. We're talking about things such as the camera and/or software
    misrepresenting the true colours and having to go back in to make
    them more like reality again. Or doing photoshop work to sharpen a
    picture which was slightly out of focus, etc, etc. 

    We talking about having a bad picture, and the possibility that
    people may NOT buy because the picture is bad, and attempting to make
    a picture represent the actual piece in question so that people WILL
    buy the piece because they can see what it really looks like.
