Thats cool, but still it needs a lot of work/features. I tried removing the background using the purse picture in the pictorial, and it wasn't as easy as it was made out to be and I wasn't able to achieve the same results. Maybe I'm missing something, but the fixed brush size makes it pretty useless at this point.



Also, one of our usability headaches is that people draw OUTSIDE of the lines - any pixel marked green WILL BE IN THE RESULT.

Now, that's not how people actually use it at first - they "just scribble" (which our example might exacerbate), and then accidentally go outside the actual lines => not good.

Will need to figure out a way to make that more clear.


I copied the marks in the example and besides needing to tell it to include the cream color under the strap, it worked exactly as shown on the homepage, so maybe just add that extra red there in the example.

Unfortunately it is freezing up on me using an image with a gradient at about 90% of the initialization.


Yeah, we're getting some null pointers in the worker. Not entirely clear why that's happening (it of course wasn't happening an hour ago...).

I think I stuck a race condition in there somewhere and it's getting exposed for the first time.

Please try uploading the image again :-/


Could be related to the image color profile. Noticed the same issue when I uploaded a jpeg image with a CMYK color profile, with RGB images it worked normally. I've had the same trouble when using Java's ImageIO to read images. There were some workarounds, but I didn't find a robust one. Ended up using a preprocessor to normalize images before reading them with Java. Would love to know if someone knows a better solution.


The brush size isn't actually fixed relative to the image - zoom in and you'll see what I mean (zoom with the mouse wheel)
