I don’t see artists replacing all the images on their websites with Mist processed versions.

Their example Van Gogh images look okay as thumbnails but are really different from the originals when viewed larger.

Overall a neat project though.

I could see use cases for galleries posting images of paintings/photos that are for sale in real life, but that they don’t want copies online.
I think the thumbnails of the misted look awful, though that might be because I can see the original to compare. There seems to be weird semi-regular patterns around the images that I think I'd notice even without the comparison, though.
It's definitely a work-in-progress.
