It can work for men OK too.

Bumped into this about a week ago and after quite a few tries it looked pretty good.

Figured to toss a few dollars to the person who created this via the paypal link at their site. But then paypal told me: "Currently PayPal accounts in China are only able to send payments. This recipient is not eligible to receive funds."

Meh..

Emailed the author to inform them and they mused about using bitcoin, but that the threshold is too high for casual users.

Perhaps time to reconsider.

I tried it with a few photos. Best results with images with low-contrast lighting on the face.

Sigh, one more reason why we really need a strong paypal competitor.

The problem there is not PayPal. It is the company formerly named GoPay, a Chinese company, that necessarily adheres to Chinese law.
