Agreeing here with Zdad-
You’re caught photoshopping, now everything you say is suspect. Frum publications, authors, lecturers have to be extra careful to avoid any semblance of sheker, or they lose more than they’ve gained in trying to transmit Torah’dig hashkafa and information.
Syag- if the only photo you have shows something that is not modest then simply don’t use the photo. If there’s some reason you must use it, then cover what you have to in a way that makes it obvious you’re covering something. Don’t artfully, and dishonestly, change a short sleeve to a long sleeve.
I was also surprised to hear to hear huju and others mentioning tzaddikim wearing black hats. Clearly this is not correct. According to the artwork I’ve seen coming from some of the top Yeshivos of today (not Chassidish ones I might add) the Tzaddikim and Manhigim among Yotz’ei Mitzrayim wore shtreimlach. The eirev rav wore Borsalinos.
