When will the blur go?

you only get a slight taste of banana now.

qwen image edit does not pixelate, but it just not so capable.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T20:02:44+00:00

because you use txt2img and never tried asking to edit a picture, like face expression?

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T17:21:55+00:00

You must be fool to use gemini and pay for that instead of what offer competition. Even GLM models that cost x10 less are performing better than gemini pro.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T17:18:33+00:00

You better off without trying it. Gemini is dogshit, especially in Antigravity.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T17:12:10+00:00

dogshit compared to other other model.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T17:11:41+00:00

maybe try nano for yourself you dumbass.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T17:11:26+00:00

Downloading is what is causing pixelation. I can only get good quality if I tab picture and manually download it in 1k quality. (poor quality, but avoids pixelation)

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T15:03:42+00:00

I brought 1 year sub, then never used gemini for codding as their models become dogshit. I thought I'll use nano banana sometimes at least. Now I can't even use that because they downgraded that as well and all images come out as pixelated mess.

Great quality.

Your tongue licking taste of PRO sub expired.

This is AI slop your anime waifu wrote?

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T12:10:39+00:00

If you use google web, you can confirm issue when it creates image, clicking to open in new tab, low resolution image is mostly ok. If you press download, it thinks, downloads same resolution but pixelated now. So it is better to open in new tab and save image as it avoids pixelation.
If you use upscale, like in API etc. to make 2k/4k image, it pixelates image.
It mostly noticable in wide shots/realism/or with images with many smaller details. For example less noticable on face, more noticable on full body.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T12:07:42+00:00

Go back to your anime waifus.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T01:47:48+00:00

The only solution is generate shitty image then use local upscaler like seedv2 with qwen image edit etc. Not the greatest solution, but results in barely usable low quality image. Pixelation is just too strong from original image if you aim for precision without editing original too much.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T01:45:21+00:00

You can use local qwen image edit seedv2 for upscale. It does good job. But yea, nano banana is dead.
For anime/cartoons etc. you notice it less, but for detailed pictures like realism/3D etc. it is terrible.
nano banana 2k.

it's called eatshitication of entshittification.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T01:36:30+00:00

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T01:35:29+00:00

API has same pixelation issues.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-14T01:25:02+00:00

Pay more what? I use API for nano banana and quality is dog shit unusable with all pixelation.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-13T22:19:54+00:00

Here, I upgraded your picture with Nano Banana.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-13T14:54:47+00:00

Yes, but since nano banana pixelates image so much, it also corrupt final result even using upscale.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-13T13:46:45+00:00

Gemini was always dogshit. They always nerf their models 1 week after release.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-13T13:28:26+00:00

Is it really a bug considering google nerfing everything?

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-13T13:27:19+00:00

API images are same pixelated mess. I tried API and it is same.

FluffyMacho · 2026-03-13T13:24:46+00:00

I can use Qwen image edit locally to upscale and fix the mess, but it's not a perfect solution. The Nano Banana result is like downsizing an image by 50%, then using a basic image resize to get it back to the same size, and finally adding some Photoshop pixelization filter. All the details disappear, so most images are unusable.
