First of all, I'm very impressed by the results you all have achieved with your script. I've looked around at a variety of other "cartoonization" filters, but none capture the same artistic, "anime" feeling and quality. It may not be perfect, but it has a style that stands out from all the rest (and reminds me of my favorite Hayao Miyazaki films)... :)

In reading a few of the other threads, I was sorry to hear you all have not had great success in capitalizing on this achievement, but I appreciate your supportive attitude towards those who might want to experiment with it (even if the results might be used for commercial applications). It does seem that people would enjoy using this filter enough to pay for it (I would); and I certainly hope for your sake (and ours) that this AI can be included as part of a more accessible software.

In the meantime, I wanted to build on what some others have suggested; which is to ask for clarification (in form of an amended license on GitHub) which would allow the public (us) to create art using White Box Cartoonization, and feel a sense of security that we own the work we produce (if the source photos are also our own). My understanding is that by default (even if you give us written permission in a post - as you've already, kindly done); technically using the results for any commercial purpose would be a violation of the default license on Github? Though correct me if I'm wrong...

I would really like to start playing around with this more (though I'm not sure what the application will be); however, before this, I would really like to either pay for a license directly, or be given permission via a license posted with the script.

I know several others have brought up this topic already, but I wanted to combine them into a new thread for your consideration. Thank you in advance; and thank you for paving the way to a wonderful new form of anime cartoonization!

Hi, @SystemErrorWang
We are a new gallery for art and dance and would like to use the cartoonization for our dance performances. May we have your permission or contact you by email? Thanks
