A question regarding the photo

Hello everyone. Sorry if this has already been asked, but is it true that the system automatically disqualifies the photo if it has been modified using Photoshop even in the most insignificant way?

For example, my friend just registered, and he took his application picture at a photo studio, where they merely edited the photo so it had correct pixel ratio, "tilted" it a tiny bit to make sure the face is 100% straight at the camera etc. After that it shows, in the picture's description (Accessed from right click>properties), that it was modified in some form with Photoshop. So does the system disqualify such photos automatically? Or is it acceptable as long as it passes the official validator tool?

Thanks in advance to whoever answers :)
 
If it passes the photo tool it will be accepted for entry, so not automatically disqualified if you mean in terms of disqualifying the entry.
However the photo tool only checks for certain technical specs.Should an entry get selected and the interviewing officer discover something that invalidates the photo requirements, the entry can still be disqualified for an incorrect photo at that stage. This is rare but we have seen reports of it.
 
@mrk110,

Don’t duplicate the same post on multiple threads in the forum, especially considering the fact that you were already getting some response on the first post.
