Blur effect in (NE) Hide content

[Indigo]

I think it would be a good idea to display images with a blur effect, like Google does for adult content.

It would look much nicer in terms of usability than just a technical notification that the image is hidden.

You can do the same with videos by overlaying an image with the text "To see this video, please register."

So...care to explain how exactly you wish this to work. (that's why I linked to the thing I did - I need you to tell me how you want it to work, not just post the idea with a 'it would be nicer' comment)

Let's take the image request specifically for the moment...so, do you want the image to still be hidden, but you want it to be shown with a blur (see my point, hidden = hidden; blurred = not hidden, but blurred)

So, do you basically want me to apply CSS blur() to the image? But, then the image is still there...it's just blurred out. Anyone with a bit of knowledge will right-click the image and open it in a new window, and view the image. Same with a video.

Or are you envisaging me creating a copy of the image that has the blur applied directly to it?

So...with all that in mind...explain how you envisage the feature working, because I currently don't see how it would.

Then I can potentially consider how it can be achieved.
