this is really awesome! undo/redo and "start over" would be very helpful.

#72Really nice. First time I tried it I carefully shaded the red and green areas and it worked ok. After looking through the comments here though I clicked green once on the part I wanted to save and then 3-5 red clicks in other areas and it worked flawlessly. Great job.

#73Really neat. I was really itching to use CTRL+Z though. I screwed up the first image I tried to clip. Maybe have a walkthrough of the features when the user first uses it? I didnt notice the help button until it was too late. I thought if I closed out of the editor and clicked on the image again, it would let me start over but it just takes you back to the editor. It would be nice if there was a way to redo editing t…
Yeah, we need to add both undo and reset/clear. The help should have shown during the upload / init!?

#78This is beautifully done -- great UX, truly impressive tech. My wife loves it and is using it to repurpose some shots from our wedding for e.g. Christmas cards.

Completely agree! I actually tried it out with one of our pictures [1] from my proposal in Rome. I'm just having a bit of trouble with the small tuft of her hair that's forcing the algorithm to keep some of the background. I suppose I could probably fix this by using the full resolution picture, instead of this scaled down one.
I'll be recommending this to many people!
