This is great work! There has been a recent shift in the last few years of limiting customization to "cover photos" instead of full backgrounds. In the Myspace days, this would have been a goldmine.

Twitter still allows this type of customization and I see many marketers customizing profile backgrounds as another way to push their brand imaging.

I wonder if there's value in using this for editing of cover photos for various social platforms like Twitter & Facebook.

yeah, first thing I had in mind when developing was profile customizations. This widget works more like input providing image data-uri. That piece can be used anywhere you could use a pattern: profiles, postcards, email backgrounds, etc
