  • Locally editing a remotely stored image
    Patent number: 8954386
    Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for editing a remotely stored image. A user can browse to a site comprising the image, and a preview (e.g., lightweight) version of the image can be loaded to a canvas component of the browser. One or more edits can be applied locally to the preview image, comprising one or more transformation. The one or more transformations can be recorded, and an edited version of the preview image, comprising the one or more image transformations, can be rendered in the canvas component. Once the user commits to one or more transformations, a request can be sent to a remote server comprising the image, to remotely edit the image, where the request comprises one or more delta changes that indicate the one or more committed image transformations, as opposed to requiring multiple bandwidth intensive transfers of the entire image.
