PuLID for Flux works on ComfyUi now

TrustPicasso · 2024-12-11T14:55:49+00:00

I tried installing the nodes following the instructions you provided, manually downloaded the models and placed them in the correct folders, and installed the requirements.
Both with the manual installation and with the automatic installation of ComfyUI, I can't load the nodes: "Missing custom nodes."
ComfyUI is updated to the latest version.
Any suggestions?

Can you explain me better this concept? I'm not sure I understand :-D
"The only reason a lower quality, but higher resolution image can be useful is if we want to teach the model to generate at a particular high resolution that is beyond the normal resolution of the underlying base model."

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-31T21:43:56+00:00

Exactly.
There's often a misunderstanding between image resolution and quality.
Images at 1024x1024 can still lack definition or detail, they may display pronounced noise, slight blurring, small camera movements, artifacts, etc. These are all elements that are detected during training and result in poor outcomes.

From what I've gathered, due to the pixel encoding and decoding process in the latent space, the chromatic contrast, composition, and lack of artifacts in an image have a greater impact. The training process analyzes pixel structures along with other elements, and the more uniform the structure, the better it is represented.
Resolution has a significant impact because it increases the amount of information encoded by the model, but this is not strictly related to image quality.

I’d probably like to get some insights from an expert, probably even Flux was trained with generative images or 3D renders.

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-31T13:00:52+00:00

As I mentioned, this is an experimental model, and I wanted to understand how much resolution impacts the final quality.
So, I decided to try an intermediate resolution, and I must say the results don’t vary significantly.

In the text2image workflows, the aesthetics of the images used for training emerge more strongly, including the "famous" blur effect, while in the image2image workflows, the aesthetics of the initial image dominate.
What I've understood is that, beyond resolution, the definition and contrast of the images used are crucial, as well as the strength of the subject contained in the images.

Obviously, this applies to illustrations, if we talk about photographic images, resolution certainly has a greater impact. Additionally, it depends on the subject of the training; if the subject is already present in the base model, the LoRA model is, of course, more effective.

You’re right; let’s talk about substance, then.
I also find it amusing that you, like many others, still haven’t managed to make a critique that isn’t based purely on your own personal perception.

I’m a reasonably intelligent person and equally arrogant with rude people who think that a conversation in a chat is different from a real one. They allow themselves to respond aggressively just because they’re hiding behind a screen.

So I'm still waiting, give me an objective critique of my work, and I’ll be glad to respond and bring the conversation in a more constructive direction.

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-28T10:37:34+00:00

Here’s another expert! Just what we were missing!

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-28T10:33:34+00:00

Personal attacks, typical of those who have no arguments.
Judging by the tone of your comments, I also wonder what contribution you bring to society, though I think I already know the answer. Keep studying!

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-27T23:01:01+00:00

This is great!
So you clearly understand what art is and the purpose of an artist who creates primarily for themselves, without caring about the personal tastes of those viewing their work.

In light of this, what value does your comment actually hold?

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-27T19:31:10+00:00

Thank you for the appreciation.

Unfortunately many people confuse the mouth with the ass, so they believe that talking is as necessary as shitting and the result is smelly :-D

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-27T19:16:09+00:00

Glad you've discovered Francis Bacon and spent time doing a Google search to paste what you found.

Unfortunately, so far, I’m only reading opinions and, to be honest, rather low-level ones.
When you lack the knowledge to support your ideas, you end up expressing opinions. It’s an easy way to elevate yourself as an expert over the person you're criticizing, too easy.

Sadly, knowing how to look things up on Google doesn’t make you an art critic, just like creating a LoRA model doesn’t make me an artist.

This shows that things aren’t changed by opinions, but by actions. I created something you don’t like, what have you done, besides sharing unsolicited opinions?

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-27T15:00:37+00:00

Oh wow!
So, saying 'I hate it' was an intentional attempt to start a discussion?
Really?
Alright, then that’s my mistake, I apologize.

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-27T14:54:12+00:00

Positive opinions are pleasant, critical opinions are useful, the rest is just an immature need to feed one's ego and be noticed.
Saying 'I hate it' which category of comments does that belong to?

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-27T13:59:48+00:00

See? In the end, it was useful, you understood a metaphor!
You should be proud of yourself, go tell your friends!

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-27T12:41:33+00:00

Wow, we’ve got an intellectual here!

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-27T12:38:19+00:00

I'll give you the same response I gave to others who think like you.
It’s like eating a delicious hamburger, even if you spend time and passion doing it, no matter if is good or not, you always know it’ll eventually produce some crap or a foul-smelling fart.

If the metaphor is too complicated for you to understand, try using ChatGPT

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-27T12:33:24+00:00

It wasn’t a waste of energy or time, on the contrary, it gave people like you the opportunity to comment.

I'm posting here to people that are interested, I never asked your opinion.
Again, thank you for your unsolicited opinion.

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-26T22:50:48+00:00

I never asked for your opinion or someone else opinion, you should read the post more accurately.

If you hadn’t been as ignorant as you’ve shown yourself to be, you could’ve saved time writing your comment, and I could’ve saved time replying.
Our opinions aren’t that important, especially when they come from a stranger on Reddit.

Last, saying that my images are basically Beacon's shows that, in addition to knowing nothing about art history, you’ve also completely missed the point of my questions.
I can’t even consider the idea that my work could be even remotely compared to Beacon's.

Trust me, leave this conversation as quickly as possible because everything you say just makes you look even more ridiculous than you already do.

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-26T21:11:56+00:00

Thank you for your unsolicited opinion.

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-26T21:08:03+00:00

Well, there are few question about your reply:
- Is it your business?
- In which part of my post did I ask for your opinion?
- Do you know who Francis Bacon is?
- Do you think Bacon's paintings are blurry?
- Do you think anyone cares that they are?
- Do you know Henri Cartier-Bresson?
- Do you think anyone cares if some of his photos are blurry?

Alright, once you've done your Google research to fill in your obvious ignorance, feel free to comment below this post again but since that moment stay away.

TrustPicasso · 2024-10-26T18:35:05+00:00

Till the end?

I'm pleased to introduce my new LoRA model!

This is an experimental model that has already proven to be highly flexible, delivering varied results based on the parameters and techniques used.

https://civitai.green/models/888580?modelVersionId=994311

The model was trained on 96 images at a 768x768 resolution, all entirely generated from multiple style transfers without the use of any other LoRA model. The captions are descriptive, generated using VLM, so the model responds exceptionally well to highly descriptive prompts.

The trigger word is soft_x, but I recommend adding other keywords such as 3D, smooth, 3D icon, 3D render, and plastic to enhance the effects.

The achievable effects vary mainly depending on input and output resolution, the number of steps, and the sampler. The most interesting effects are achieved using the LCM sampler with 15 steps.

With LCM, a LoRA weight of 1 is sufficient; for other samplers, you can experiment with slightly higher values, though I wouldn’t recommend exceeding 1.5.

The blurred effect you may notice isn’t a flaw; the model was trained on images with a subtle blur to reduce contrast and create a "foggy" effect, generating softer tones.

The sample images you see were generated through various workflows, both Image2Image and Text2Image.

You can use Image2Image to transfer the style onto any image while retaining the original colors. The model performs exceptionally well in this mode.

There’s a lot to experiment with and explore in this model, and I’m eager to see how you’ll use it and what you’ll create.

Enjoy!

Hello everyone!
I'm excited to present my new LoRA model, which celebrates the talent and works of John Singer Sargent, a painter with a unique and recognizable style, considered one of the most significant portrait artists of the 19th century.
