I'm curious though: is that software designed to look for digital manipulation or airbrushing?
I mean, if you run this photo through it will it tell you that the little guy has been airbrushed out?
Good point- only seems to work on digital pictures -if you put Obama’s birth certificate through ELA it reveals areas of local manipulation.

I suppose if you wanted to get around that they could have printed a high resolution picture then scanned that or taken a picture of that then would have been no signatures in that file.
With digital forensics if you change one byte in a file(picture) it changes multiple parts of the file leaving a number of signatures. Virtually impossible to fake.
I had a problem with a competitor posting photos of fake damage allegedly caused by a product I sell on the internet so I hired these people to prove they were doctored.

There are a number of filters they use to pull out changes to a picture and it would surprise most people that what you can find out - for example
The EXIF file if the file was modified it will have traces of the editing program in my case Photoshop software name was in the EXIF file placed when it was saved in Photoshop.
Editing out photoshop from the EXIF file will make changes elsewhere - no way out for the forger
