Can You Spot It?

I received a press release earlier today (will post it later), and when looking at the attached picture I thought I saw something funny. Can you spot it?


Now if we play a bit with contrast and brightness you may spot it more easily.


It's an easy mistake to make, and I've surely done my fair share of mistakes with Shuffle and this site, but in a press release from a reputable PR company?

Maybe they thought nobody would notice it.
I just love catching these slip ups.

But its still better than when Microsoft was running Windows on a Power PC on their home page.

As a designer myself, this is really embarrassing for whoever did this. There is never an excuse for something so simple to do and yet one still manages to make a blunder. :S

The PR Company tried to erase some text on the white background with a different hue of color. Magnus didn't do the erasing on purpose, they did. And in a very bad manner I might add.

LOL sorry to confuse you. I just resized both pics and I changed brightness and contrast in the second. That's it
