Works wonderfully in FF 4b7. It's a pretty simple model and I'm on a high end machine, so that isn't all that incredible (like a side-scrolling canvas demo), but it's neat.

I have the exact opposite experience actually in FF 4b7, and though I'm not running some crazy awesome machine, its still a decent box. The page basically crashes the browser.

What OS, and what GPU?

this runs a little slow on my mac, anyone else having issues? Also, what are those things on her nipples? You can see it clearly when the opacity of everything is set to 0 except for a slight opaqueness of the body.

Completely unusable on my Macbook. It's a 4 year old machine though and not a Pro.

Can we leave the novelty accounts to Reddit, please?

Huh. I thought this was something completely different. I thought this was a robot to help cross-references submissions about the same topic, and find duplicates that the built-in dup detector doesn't find. As such, I thought it would be valuable.

I think he thinks you're just using DupDetector as a cute name while you post this stuff.

Are you asking him to change the account name, or stop detecting dupes?

Isn't it a bit prudish not to fully expose the skin? It's not much better than a Barbie doll. And where's Ken?

I think it's a bit smart to leave it out until the attention is on the next shiny thing and the prudes have moved on.

Are you running 10.5 or 10.6? Performance will be slow for large windows on 10.5

If it's a bot, I can see the value in it. It would be better as a built-in feature, but nevertheless it makes sense. I just hope that it doesn't inspire less useful accounts which would be more akin to Reddit's novelty accounts.
