The site told me how to enable webGL in my browser (Safari) which is helpful, but I wonder how many Safari users will actually follow said instructions.
I got the same notice on my Android phone.

#42Very cool! But does he have to stand like that? Or can we change it?
Thanks for checking it out! That's right, you can change his poses in our product. We're adding some crazier poses in the days ahead - drop me a note if there's a particular pose you're envisioning and we'll add it in.
Add the Tebow pose!!

#43I wonder if there will be copyright issues to worry about. E.g. Can we expect Marvel to "DMCA" the design of physical goods (or even the goods themselves)?

Thanks for your comment. It's an interesting question and quite a bit of of certainty. Here's a bit of an overview: http://www.wired.co.uk/news/archive/2012-05/31/3d-printing-c...

#45Interesting. So for those of you who know of Figureprints [1] its like that except only one guy. Clearly the market here is for over sexualized super-heroines but stepping back from that moral abyss for a moment, I like the integration of webgl as the 'design stage.' One of things I keep thinking we could do with 3D printers (of the ABS variety) is to create a service whereby an owner can 'register' their printer wit…
Sign us up - we'd actually love to send orders your way, if you can set this up. Quality control is just super important for this to work, but we'd be happy to be a pilot customer.
We're small right now (2 people) with ambitions that do surpass our size.

Thanks for the note. We're definitely adding her soon. We had to start somewhere, but she's coming next.
I was also hoping for a female superhero to make one with my niece. Looking forward to that announcement.
marquis, please drop us a note at contact@dreamforge.me and we'll definitely send you an email when we have the female superhero added

#48Do you plan on making it possible to use custom images for clothes etc ? A customized costume with a Kid's name on it would certainly help me find ideas for birthdays.
Absolutely - it's really high on our priority list

#50Interestingly I see different sites in different browsers. I don't see pages http://toys.dreamforge.me/users/sign_up and http://toys.dreamforge.me/assemblies in Firefox for instance...
Thanks for the heads up - could you email us some more details (contact@dreamforge.me)? It seems to work fine in Firefox for us so we'd really like to get to the bottom of this for you.
