Thanks for linking the video. The GitHub screenshots are completely useless, because there are no before/after comparisons.

If you look at the very right of the screenshots, there is a "history" of generations with unused alternatives. Me and my visual cortex managed to synthesize "before" images from this information.

Very inconvenient? Yes. Completely useless? No.

At this point selecting good screenshots for git readme's should be a profession of its own, it's baffling how many projects' appeal could be really enhanced by simple informative screenshots.
It is not very obvious but the first image was a link to youtube video. The developer should put a play button on it, using his tool perhaps!
