"NO fake/CGI product photos! Those are a screaming red flag to consumers. No one in their right mind would buy a $3k couch with a photoshopped product image."

Tell that to IKEA, their catalog is 75% CGI.

- mintone 11y agoFirstly it's good CGI and secondly, most importantly, IKEA has the advantage of being IKEA. Don't trust the image? Go to one of their huge, trustworthy stores.
- coldtea 11y ago>Tell that to IKEA, their catalog is 75% CGI. Obviously that doesn't apply to IKEA. First, because IKEA uses so good CGI (and hybrid techniques) that their photos are life-like and totally believable. Second, because everybody has seen and touch IKEA products, and can visit an IKEA store at any time. They're not some mystery meat web store.
- mryan 11y agoDid you know IKEA's catalogue was 75% CGI before reading that article? I knew some was, but I had no idea it was that high of a percentage. I guess this could be rephrased to "No obviously fake/CGI product photos". The CGI images on the OP's site are very clearly CGI, and the lack of quality is definitely off-putting.
