Coming soon: Live sky in regular pictures

Today we are announcing a preview of a new feature called "live-sky"

It is possible to make the sky alive, reflecting the actual clouds, sun, moon and stars.
On your picture.
Taken with your camera.

Very soon, you will be able to make the sky alive.
In 3 steps.
1. Cut out the sky from your picture.
2. Let YoWindow know where the horizon-line is on the picture.
3. Add the picture to YoWindow.

The picture is worth 1000 words.
Take a look at the preview examples.
http://yowindow.com/online.html
I have cut out the sky from 2 random photos I have found on Flickr: Pyramids and Colosseo.
Look at the bottom-left corner of the page.

I will explain the details later.
Do not try this feature until the official announcement.
Today it is just a preview.

Do you like it?

Yes, any photo!
But the sky needs to be cut out using a picture editing tool like Photoshop.
