How to Make Your Dick Look Bigger

It's All in the Angle of the Dangle…

After noticing a few different kinds of images show up here and having seen (and been a part of) debates on whether they are real or fake, I thought I would stage a few of these photography tricks for myself to see just how much a difference these supposed tricks and “angles” can make. Then, of course, I thought I would share them with all of you. ;)

The first few examples show effects that require no photo-shop or image manipulation at all and the last requires only very basic graphics manipulation ability.

Can or Cannot…

Inspired by this guys claims and image this example shows just how much a difference object placement can make. The claim is one that many aspire to in our fantasy… to be as thick as a pop/beer can. The standard pop can I used measures 8.25” in circumference (a very unrealistic goal), while my tube of paint measured 5.25” in circumference (a very practical goal for many). The two were placed less than half an inch apart.

A Bird in the Hand…

The type of image found in this thread even though it is quiet obvious that his hand is further back in the background, our minds play tricks making things in the foreground seem larger than they may actually be especially when we see larger things or things we think we know the size of in the background. This effect is exaggerated even further by wide angle lenses which can really shrink the appearance of background objects and distort perspective.

Web of Lies…

Much like the other examples, this type of web-cam like image has been showing up more and more because it really distorts your perspective by giving you a view opposite to what your brain is used to seeing. Instead of seeing torso, penis, legs… you see legs, penis, torso, which doesn’t seem like a big difference but your brain still thinks of size as relative to what has been trained to see every single day when you look down, so if the image shows a large looking penis against a small looking torso (due to the perspective) it assumes the penis is much larger than it would looking at it the other way around.

The Odds are Stacked…

Another advantage of the down looking up view is that it takes advantage of the anatomy of the penis. From the top looking down, we are basically limited to the non-bone pressed length while from the bottom looking up as seen in this image and as well in this one, the testicles can be pushed down further revealing shaft that is practically attached to the body and unusable for penetration. However, carefully placed hands and camera can hide the true location of the base of the penis and leave the usable length up to our imagination.

The tube of paint is just over 5” long simulating a 5” NBPEL yet I can get two hands with plenty to spare by hooking my thumb and pushing the (in this demonstration, imaginary) testicles down with my lower hand. The bottle is touching my body in each shot.

Get a Grip…

My hand can reach around a 6” tube and touch fingers together without straining or forcing it. Most of us here will admit that real 6” girth is pretty damn big. For myself, to get a 1” gap between my fingers I would have to be grasping about a 7.5” tube so why does almost every image we see of cocks being grabbed in porn shows this gap? It’s a simple trick really as long as you are aware of where the camera is you can adjust your wrist accordingly. Look for it in videos and you will see how forced the wrist position is in some cases.

Comparing Apples to Oranges…

Another common way to make an object look bigger is to surround it with smaller objects. Porn videos very often feature small women with small hands and small bodies and even small framed males whose body size exagerates the size of their members. These two images contain the same 5.25” tube of red paint in each shot with different sized tubes in the background of each shot.

Scale Ruler…

This little trick, which I first noticed in this thread is so elegant it only requires only a long enough ruler to essentially cut the image in half and even the simplest graphics manipulation program. If you can hold the ruler absolutely straight across the image you can easily scale up (or down) one entire half of the image using the edge of the ruler as your dividing line. Basically select a rectangle with one side matching the ruler edge and scale everything within that rectangle to a larger size. It is effective because most “photoshopped” enlargements attempt to select just the outline of the penis and enlarge it leaving lots of clues as to the image being tampered with. The only real catch is that you would have to take the picture over a solid textured floor as patterns or tiles will destroy the illusion. Imagine tiles of one size on one side of the ruler and tiles appearing double size on the other.

So there are a hand full of pointers for recognizing some pretty common illusions. If you guys have any other examples you are able to share I’d love to see them. I find it funny how much clearer I can see differences in regular objects but once genitalia are involved our minds somehow seem to process images differently.

You can use these tricks (especially the last one) for creating your own inspirational images, or maybe have a little fun trying to impress that special someone. ;)

Just don’t try and impress anyone here with them!

Here are some links to further examples added as posts later in this thread:

Objects in mirror (and edges) are closer than they appear.

Nice thread. I hadn’t really considered the ruler example, it is so simple and retains a good size for the hand. Thanks for linking where these techniques have been used too.

I find it quite interesting when people post porn angle pics of their cock here. When it comes to manipulation in gimp, often the most telling thing is the fairly basic background they choose to shoot against to make life easier (of course they might add a background later).

Truly a pioneer of proportionate penis picture protection. Great work cantlook. I will take some of these into consideration if I ever need to send a dick pick to a girl. It should really help.

Cool thread, cantlook. Thanks for making it so easy to understand and visualize!

Holy crap! I’ve always tried to get pictures to look more “representative” (aka what I see elsewhere). These are great tips!

Nice thread bro. Let’s cream it!

Eye opening. Great photography lesson.

Wow. Good stuff man.

Hey Cantlook outstanding thread man, I already have done photos like this in my thread, but this tricks are mean.

Nice.

Gives a “perspective” to things.

Thanks for taking the time to do that for us.

Check out a Tumblr that’s been gathering attention called Critique My Dick Pic. A woman critiques the quality of the dick pics she gets, but in a cool, respectful, and smart way. She doesn’t critique the units so much as she does the way they are presented.

I stumbled upon “Is Everything Really What it Seems? An ongoing study by DLD” last night.

Some pretty good info that thread about how our minds interpret what we see.

Ironic, one might say, considering who posted the thread, but certainly good info none the less! ;)

That is a really good thread and probably DLD’s biggest contribution to PE.

It’s interesting that, certainly if you are heterosexual and not a swinger, the way you most often view a penis is from a distance of 2-3’ looking down. Even when this angle is shown by a camera in a video it is shot a lot closer than the position of the head, so it’s designed to emulate what we see when we look down but at the same time cheats on that a little. It will be interesting to see porn done by glassholes, to see how it looks from the position of the eye (assuming the glass doesn’t change the focal distance).

Nice thread. Thank you for the tips.

I give this thread 5 stars :star: :star: :star: :star: :star:

Most guys don’t try to deliberately manipulate their photos much when posting them, but it shows why it is easy to think “wow, that looks bigger than the poster is claiming” or conversely “he’s got his measurements wrong!” because it looks smaller; perspective can work both ways!

Of course now everyone knows how to make their dick look bigger, we can expect some much more interesting photography in the pics forums! :D
