Restrictions on editing and copying images of money, who knew?

[hoosierdoc]

Today I was trying to make a fake news image to share on facebook. I downloaded a copy of a $50 bill and opened it in photoshop. Then I changed the size of it and went to copy it, and got an error. I was told that photoshop cannot edit pictures of money. It must have had image recognition software to tell it that I was working with a picture of money. I did a screenshot, then pasted into a new image and cropped down, and was again told it cannot edit money.

My brother told me copy machines will refuse to copy money. This is blowing my mind

Beyond that the machines will micro dot print that can be traced to an individual machine.......

The copier at work will only copy 1/2 a bill. HP.

One of the reasons US bills now have silver threads and watermarks and all kinds of other stuff is because color copiers started getting really really good.


Hoosierdoc, I suggest you prepare the wife and kids for the Secret Service SWAT team flashbangs that you're going to hear about 0330 tomorrow...

I was going to take a check deposit image example for phone banking and swap out a $50 bill for the check. I was going to say my bank let's you deposit cash via the app now too which is awesome

That's actually amusing.

Those "take a picture of the check" things- I thought it would be great seeing as how I have never had direct deposit available and I find even stopping at the ATM to be annoying....but no, sir- doesn't work for me.

Why doesn't it work?

Why doesn't it work?

I bank with Chase and for some reason they have limits that don't work for me. They seem strangely low.

Chase already has your money. Thus they are unconcerned with your happiness
