Correct: Use the negative imperative: 'No deformes el objeto'.
Why: The negative imperative requires a conjugated verb form, not the infinitive.
Mistake: Confusing tú and usted forms: 'No deforme la foto' (when speaking to tú).
Correct: Use 'No deformes la foto' for tú.
Why: The tú form of the negative imperative (present subjunctive) is 'deformes', while the usted form is 'deforme'.
