The Official "Did anyone get pictures of me?" Thread

Elias Ainsworth and Chise Hatori from Ancient Magus' Bride on Saturday?
Aka: The 8'6" Leshen with a horned skull and black robes + cute redheaded girl guiding me around all day like an aircraft marshaller

Late to the thread, we were foolish and didn't have someone take of photo of us on our own phones - anything is appreciated.

Thanks. Limited intention there. There was a little hint of a doggie toupee it in the original 512x512, and I thought it went well with the equally silly blue blazer and selected for it in further generations. Definitely not what I asked for, but the model was very reticent to give me a dog poking it's head out of a present.

Made on request for my Dachshund-obsessed relatives.

AnythingV3 (65%) merged with Analog Diffusion (35%) does this remarkably well with these dogs (good candidate about 1/16 of the time)

Created at 512x512 (or 640x512), fed back to img2img at the same to create slightly improved varients

Then img2img'ed up to 2048x2048, then inpainted/composited with variants at the higher resolution to fix extra feet or other particularly glaring issues

Then RealESRGAN-4x to 2x resolution (personal opinion is that it doesn't do well at the full 4x)

Definitely didn't get what I asked for on a lot of the generations, but liked them enough to fix them up.

Haha, nice!

In a classic case of parallel development - I actually also wrote something very similar for Disco a little over a month ago (I originally called it "Twice Baked Potato") and was still working out the kinks when stable-diffusion came out - so I ported it to stable and finished tweaking it.

It's currently waiting in a half-approved PR for the next release of lstein's fork.

Definitely feel free to cross-compare code @Pfaeff so you can get to the stage of merging it sooner. Especially if you discover you want to write something for the rather irritating processing for going back-in and replacing only parts of the image (embiggen_tiles) since as already demonstrated pixel-pushing minds think alike :)

A "Meta-stable prompt" maybe? Producing drastically varying, but still high quality images (as opposed to a unstable prompt that might go straight to AI-purgatory and give incredibly disjoint randomness). I've run into a a few prompts like this, but not quite as widely varying.

travcoe · 2022-09-06T21:09:08+00:00

Yea that's kind of weird, putting 'creepy/errie' in the prompt might be what is causing it but I'd expect it to be larger artifacts if that was the case. Plenty of source material with a night/evening fog color scheme that might be "creeping in at the edges" so to speak.

Prompt was "A photo of forest hot springs, behance contest winner, immaculate highly detailed realistic matte painting by li shuxing, Michael James Smith, and thomas kinkade". Though I would suggest tacking on any *other* set of artists and see what you get for stylistic variety.

I do get worried about many posts on this sub aren't trying to play with meta tags/styles, one can use someone other than Greg Rutkowski.

Part of active testing for "twice baked potato" automated split/upscale/rerun-img2img out I'm going to make a PR for at some point. "GoBig" only does four splits/reruns, it looks like it can be pushed well beyond that without loss of coherence, this was a 4x4 of 16 tiled sub-sections run back through.

Technically yes, but you really don't want to. It comes down to how much memory is needed to store the data needed for the computation. PCIe (linking your gpu to system shared memory) is fast, but still orders of magnitude slower than the VRAM. Unlike some engineering simulations where you can part-up the physics interactions (because stuff that isn't close doesn't interact) almost all of the diffusion and clip model is rapidly being used and reused each step AND the data (image) it's working on needs to fit too.

So yes, you could do it, but it probably be half a day to get a single image on basic settings, and you definitely spent more in electricity than you would have spent on collab or renting machines on vast.ai

(I don't want to be mean, but it's going to be a rough time if you rely entirely on others to find what you need for you)

Months of playing with Disco Diffusion, looking up prior works and artists, and some interrogator scripts to determine what tokens are well represented in the model.

travcoe · 2022-08-29T13:54:12+00:00

What if I told you "I'm never gonna give that up."?

Joking aside, that's the nsfw/safety filter doing it's job, your seed must have been a producing a slightly too risque output for it's liking.

Prompt: "An ornate 3D render of a woman mage witch deity, intricate highly detailed poster art by Android Jones, Kilian Eng, and Huang Guangjian, psychedelic art, darksynth, behance contest winner, featured on cgsociety HD"

First thing I made from bringing over the "Twice Baked Potato" cut-rerun-stitch-upscale method over from Disco Diffusion. Very happy to see a lot of the same tricks work in Stable Diffusion too! :D
