Ostagram.ru - Anyone playing with this?

If this is too late, I'll post again tomorrow

I am obsessed with this web toy! It uses neural network technology to merge images together. You can take a photo of yourself and give it the elements of Van Gogh's Starry Night, for instance. Some of the results are awe-inspiring. Others are horrific (and still awe-inspiring.)

It's free and has no ads, but the wait for the results is long. I think they bump your first image through quickly but others take a long time. I have a huge queue of pictures lined up but they've been there over 24 hours now. I'm just being patient since I know their servers are probably stuffed to the gills.

Are any of you trying this? I've seen some fandom things go up with mixed results. Someone did something terrible to an image of Patrick Starfish that I never want to see again. On the other hand, some people have used anime images as filters (the picture you want the base image to resemble) and, while they won't make anyone look like an anime character, the results are sometimes much prettier than I expected.
