It would be nice to have a few more examples. The only example I see on the homepage is hidden in the video, both hard to see and not always visible.
2nd this. Maybe, images with diff dimensions

#222You can do this in Python with 1 function call:

#223I can see use here but not monthly subscription, typically will use in a batch for say a newsletter. Seems like you can pay $5 a month, do your batch work, then cancel.
I'm really interesting in the best pricing models for this type of mini-product.

Yes, but you need to compute the matrix first. That's the tricky part I suppose since applying the transformation itself is as simple as multiplying every output bitmap center by the inverse projective transformation matrix and translating the original color.

#226You could have named it "drama screen".

#227I wish there were an option to export a video like the example on the homepage (with some ability to control the camera path). I'd love to be able to use it to make a promotional video for a developer tool similar to the announcement video for the Windows Terminal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gw0rXPMMPE
I agree. I'd actually pay if it could do this in addition to its current set of features.

True! But this is of course basic knowledge for people working in 3d graphics.
If you don't have that knowledge, I think you can get quite far by just starting with a unit matrix and changing the coefficients iteratively until you get something that looks right.

#229Earlier quoted context omitted.
That's a completely unrelated feature, intended for web development? It also didn't end up being very useful, and they removed it in 2016.
> It also didn't end up being very useful Because SPA (Angular/React/Vue) happened. Webpages are going from handcrafted "semantic" ones to nested pile of DIVs.
Eh, most web pages haven't been handcrafted since ~1996. Remember how ugly Dreamweaver's output was?

That's cheap if you're a media company or online marketeer that uses it regularly. The alternative would be paying for Photoshop and acquiring those skills.
Not eveything has to be free, and people are willing to pay for things. You just need to know the audience.
I think one issue I have with comment sections is that a lot of people only speak from their personal point of view, and don't consider e.g. companies or other individuals.
