Shapecatcher.com had some server problems these last days and a long downtime, I'm sorry for that! Recognition should work again now.
Shapecatcher.com is running again. The recent downtime was needed to inspect the server and update it.
There is also already an Obj-C library under MIT-license to access the API: github.com/kgn/ShapecatcherK… @_kgn thanks again for that!
Shapecatcher.com hit the frontpage of Reddit: reddit.com/r/programming/com… (and apparently Reddit crashed, and Shapecatcher didn't. Yay!)
You can now give feedback for the search results. Rate your favorite characters! So that recognition quality is going to get better soon :)
I added support for touch events. Shapecatcher.com should work on phones and tablets now! ☺
You can now download all unicode fonts used on shapecatcher.com in a convenient package: shapecatcher.com/unicodefont…
The infamous "Look of disapproval" (shapecatcher.com/unicode_inf…) is now also supported ಠ_ಠ
870 new Unicode characters are now supported: this means Katakana and Hiragana, Kannada, Telugu and more complete symbol support.
Snowman challenge: imgur.com/TJfki, can you make shapecatcher.com find the Unicode snowman?
