It's doing the weirdest thing for me, I get this[1] for the preview, but I get this[2] when I download it. Other than that it works better than I expected for non-real life stuff.

closer inspection on the preview reveals this

It's playing nice with all the other screenshots I've thrown at it so far, though.

here's the original I guess if anyone wants to see if it happens with them too

Wow. So I went looking for an image I thought it would have a hard time with: http://fileza.com/d/5h2wco/clippingmagic_test.png

A pretty busy background, soft/furry edges between subject and background, less-than-obvious clear color boundaries.

The real-time feedback makes it easy to give it the markings that it needs in less than 20 seconds for a near perfect crop (or as good as one would expect with fluffy hair as a boundary). I was pleasantly surprised.

I've been trying to use the demo for the last... 30 minutes or so, but after I upload the image the "Initializing" progress bar in the "Booting" window always freezes around 90%.

We probably have a bug. Please try another browser and hopefully I can nail that issue soon. (I'm one of the devs)

Wow, yeah, that didn't work right. Thanks for pointing it out! I'll take a deeper look tomorrow. (I'm one of the devs)

Really nice work! I tried a fairly complicated image and it worked quite well.

Couple bugs: 1) Chrome on Win8 consistently gives me the Network Error dialog when trying to upload 2) Was able to get it working fine on IE10, but sometimes the background still shows up in the preview, even though it is erased correctly in the download. http://i.imgur.com/fSB4n4r.jpg

I was using Chrome Version 26.0.1410.65 on Mac OS X 10.7.5.

Opera 12.15 is apparently not compatible since it lacks data URLs.

Safari Version 6.0 (7536.25) freezes at the same place.

Firefox 20.0 gives me an error in a dialog box saying that it's "unable to connect to worker."

I get "Your Browser Is Out Of Date... Terribly sorry, but your browser appears to be missing key feature(s) required to use this website: Data URL Support Please try the latest version of one of these browsers instead: Google Chrome, Firefox", however I'm using Safari 5.1: data URL support has been in Safari since 3.1 (according to http://caniuse.com/datauri).
