Nice one, but still a fake. Should be posted in the "Johnlock fan art" thread.
What is a manip, by the way?
It's the new word for "shopped" - as in "Photoshopped." Means it was manipulated.
I do not think it goes in Johnlock because it has no sexual preference content unless one reads that in. If it's a manipulated photo, it doesn't mean it isn't a favorite Sherlock/John picture.

Re: Finally: The Sherlock/John picture thread
It depends whether the thread is meant to be actual shots from Sherlock or not.

Re: Finally: The Sherlock/John picture thread
I think this thread should be for actual photos from the series. For manips, drawings and all other artwork we should use the fan art threads.

I'm always happy to go along with any rules forum moderators set. I will point out that the OP said photos of Martin and Benedict, not Sherlock and John and did not limit it to photos from the show only.
From this thread: this is a setlock, for instance:
And this is - well, I s'pose it might be shopped!
Whatever the forum policy is, of course, is what we should follow.

Re: Finally: The Sherlock/John picture thread
The last one is not shopped of course. It's an original John/Sherlock picture.

Mysteria's one outside the Cross Keys is indeed photoshopped.

Re: Finally: The Sherlock/John picture thread
I presume the very rest of the Sherlock/John pictures are photoshopped too. Hell, Photoshop will be the device for the next series!
