Comment on Image Protection on the Web

The final demo literally gives me a headache. It shimmers. However for whatever reason I am able to screenshot it perfectly from Chrome on Windows 7.

Internet Explorer 10 won't render the image at all (blackness) and in Firefox it looks both corrupt AND shimmers (and screenshots look equally as horrible).

Given the choice between a watermark which might decrease my viewing experience and some shimmering buggy image that literally gives me a headache (like sea-sickness), I'm definitely opting for a watermark.

Does anyone else get sick while staring at the final demo?

It shimmers using Chrome on OS 10.6 on an HP LP3065. The kitty looks like he's about to barf. All in all, a substandard image. Here's a screenshot. It doesn't shimmer, but it is ugly!
