Redacted — Quick and easy to redact parts of an image

Replies
@rrhoover I posted an itinerary for a trip to Twitter recently. I had to open Photoshop to blur out all of our confirmation numbers, etc. It's silly how long it takes to do that in Photoshop. I decided to make something to make it quick to redact part of an image anyone can use :)
@rrhoover @soffes I feel as I should point at that the blurred parts of this images shouldn't be considered removed or secured. For the manual process of reproducing the hidden data please read: https://dheera.net/projects/blur
what image/file extensions does it support? love how simple it is, can't wait to test it out! good stuff @soffes
Redacted is a little side project I've been working on. I'd love to answer any questions! Redacted makes it quick and easy to redact parts of an image. Hide sensitive details of an image by simply clicking and dragging.
Here's a video demo if you're curious:
Thanks for posting @antoineplu!
@antoineplu I hope that releasing a short intro video w/ the product becomes the standard of PH.
I've always used Skitch by Evernote for this, it's always been quick enough for me. Not sure I'd pay $5 for the privilege myself, but best of luck with it!
Great idea, super useful! Will you be supporting other types of files, such as PDFs, in the future?
@rossfishkind I'd definitely like to do it. Removing the original data would be pretty tricky though. I'll save that for down the road.
I've been using Skitch (https://evernote.com/intl/fr/ski...) to do this kind of stuff. Whatcha think @samsoffes?
I was always wondering how to pixelate some parts of an image like the Company name to post it on Dribbble. And here is it! Nice work @soffes ;)
I use Sketch to do this now, which is equally time consuming. Stoked to have this little app in my workflow. Thanks @soffes!
Perfect timing, was just telling my wife I need to find something to redact part of photos about an hour ago. Can't wait to give this a try.
I love how simple and well made/thought out this is.
I think it'd be nice to be able to change the intensity of the effect though — depending on the font size of the part you want to redact, it may look weird, like in the example contract in the video. Maybe a simple intensity slider from weak to strong?
