images-discussions

[tall mason]

There are also some limits in overall sever usage, in my experience.

[dim cradle]

interesting technique, good to know, thanks for sharing

[runic granite]

how many gen request do you have during a 3 hour period?

[tall mason]

Honestly, donno, I very rarely hit my limits, other than when the server is heavily loaded. I'm pointing out what other users have said, mostly.

[runic granite]

40 as i know

[tall mason]

With gpt, I believe. Sorry, I may not have been clear, but I get it now.

40 gpt messages per 3 hours.

[wide knot]

If you use a chatgpt prompt to get rid of feedback on images as a preface to your prompt, it cuts down a lot on how often you get limit rated

[tall mason]

200 dall-e images per 24 hours.

[runic granite]

so calculate the max possible request

[tall mason]

I think, I haven't tried, you could prompt gpt to make 200 images in one prompt. Not sure, though.

[runic granite]

well i started to gen after 16 local time

00:30 now

not possible to reach the 200

[tall mason]

Are you using the dallze specific gpt? That makes 2 at a time?

[runic granite]

yeah

but its still one request

[tall mason]

When you can, ask gpt to make multiple generations at a time, then.

[runic granite]

before it was 4 without dalle GPT

i always do that

[tall mason]

Yeah, Dall-e was a plugin when 4 was first released if iirc.

[runic granite]

yeah

with 4 image per request

and 50 request per 3 hours

😄

so 200 image per 3 hours

wasnt daily cap

[tall mason]

Something like that. But like I've said, I believe the current version can do 200 images per 24 hours, if you ask gpt for multiple generations per message. But 4 is still limited to 40 messages per 3 hours.

[dim cradle]

there's higher demand now, they have to be more efficient. you can power a light bulb for 2 hours with the energy it takes to generate a single image. it's a good thing it's becoming popular, we just have to deal with the growing pains, hopefully it's very temporary.

[runic granite]

well i could if i wouldnt pay for it

as its a payed service.... their problem to provide the infrastructure

not the subscriber's

buy hardware, rent process time... i think the light bulb is an over statement

many sites work efficiently without this constant......

[dim cradle]

it's $20/month. they're trying to give everyone a turn. they're doing their best to grow with demands. they're scaling up constantly. they're a new company, on the bleeding edge--I for one support them rather than criticize.

[runic granite]

and why not?

when i contact CS

they copy paste some answer which dont even related to the problem which i report

[dim cradle]

we don't represent them. i don't get paid to support them. we're in the same boat. this channel is for discussing dall-e. when i start getting paid to support their users, i'll be happy to listen to your concerns, but you're just preaching to the choir here.

[tall mason]

Hundreds of others have likely made the same report.

[runic granite]

i dont preach to anyone... and as the problem related to dalle... is it dalle discussion or not?

[tall mason]

This is more a place to discuss how to use dall-e than concerns and complaints.

[runic granite]

every AI company is new..... You mean implement newer and newer restrictions? I dont see any upscaling.... just lower and lower limit caps

[dim cradle]

It’s an expression. I mean we’re in this together lol

[runic granite]

ok...

the problem shortly

i pay for the service

[tall mason]

Not too long ago, there wasn't limit caps, but credits. Still are. This is a rapidly developing technology, and how OAI and competitors are handling fees and such is beyond a lot of us.

[runic granite]

and they dont offer what initialy promised

[dim cradle]

Please send them your feedback. We’re just users trying to help others with using dalle.

[runic granite]

i know that part

but openai customer support is useless

😄

[wide knot]

You're asking a bunch of people who ultimately can't fix your problem how to fix your problem. You're not gonna find your answer in this channel

[tall mason]

Most is... It's generally to keep you separated from the folks that "matter," lol.

No, but seriously.

Donno how much OAI listens. The folks that run this server do, though. But they're not OAI and have no control over them.

[runic granite]

i know that

[dim cradle]

it's obviously going to get better in time, i'm trying to be patient. the usage caps can get in the way of productivity. but this tech didn't even exist until last year. we can be grateful that we have it at all.

[runic granite]

i see how many bugs solved in the feedback channel

not much

😄

[runic granite]

i dont like to be a lab rat much less when i pay for it

example

BIC

i have my problems with it....

[tall mason]

Bing's not entirely free, has it's own limits and rules, of course.

[runic granite]

but as a free service i have to accept it

[tall mason]

Dall-e 2 still offers a certain amount of free credits.

[runic granite]

dalle2 only good at close up

[tall mason]

Also, nevermind the secret word...

EULA....

[runic granite]

at least with drows

[tall mason]

Dall-e 2 still has inpainting/outpainting, and both models have their own quirks. Dall-e 3 seems extremely biased to 3D digital art and anime for example.

[runic granite]

its less my concern

try to gen drow....

😄

you wont get what you want at least a couple of times

i constantly have to correct dalle3

[tall mason]

Sorry, never heard of them before. But here's this. I really just had TES's Dunmer in mind, though.

[runic granite]

i mean drow....

[tall mason]

Yes, and a Google search makes them out to be dark grey skinned eleves with white hair.

[runic granite]

the grey is more of obsidian

but yes

[tall mason]

Sure, okay. But what makes you seem to think they're a challenge? Are you asking specifically for drow?

[runic granite]

yes

[tall mason]

From what little I saw in the search, drow are from a specific series, and dall-e may be taking issue with that. In the image I showed earlier, I didn't specify dunmer, but used generic terms.

[runic granite]

its from AD&D

Forgotten Realms

Menzoberranzan

[tall mason]

I see. So, my gens of them look fine, even asking for them directly. What kind of problems are you having?

[runic granite]

as soon as i request obsidian skin it grabs african face structure not elven...

so regulalry have to correct it as it drop the correction

and have to regularly reinforce the obsidian skin as swith back to grey...

[tall mason]

Now, by obsidian, you mean jet black, or literal obsidian?

[runic granite]

like obsidian black

just avoid to use the term black

as its interpreted by the ai as african

[runic granite]

old gen

yeah with close up its fine

[tall mason]

From BIC, not sure if it's quite what you're after.

[analog crest]

Hey kinda new here so how do I work the function?

[dim cradle]

do you have access to DALL-E?

[analog crest]

im pretty sure

is there a way to check?

[tall mason]

Lol, I feel I should know more about this. You'll need an OAI account. That, or you can use Bing Image Creator. Lemme find the links.

[analog crest]

oh ok

[dim cradle]

are you interested in learning how to get started generating AI art?

[analog crest]

oh yes!

[tall mason]

https://openai.com/

https://www.bing.com/images/create

[analog crest]

ok thx

[dim cradle]

If you have chatgpt, you can use DALL-E 3 through a GPT-4 conversation by requesitng a visualization, or you can you use the OpenAI DALL-E GPT located in the sidebar -- input your concept, it'll augment your prompt -- or use Bing Image Creator, but you'll want to learn the basics of ai art prompt engineering... If you have any specific questions about an image you want to generate, we can probably help.

[sick flax]

If you want to learn the basics of prompt writing, you can ask ChatGPT to show you. If you don't have ChatGPT Plus, you can use free ChatGPT to develop a prompt, then, go to Bing Image Creator to try it out.

[dim cradle]

i requested a hypothetical visualization of a human after 1 million more years of evolution. evidently gpt thinks we'll all walk around with transparent craniums.

[dim cradle]

good suggestion, i usually feed bing or the api a prompt i've crafted with gpt-3.5 anyway. you can request a "short art prompt" that usually fits bing's character limit, or can be easily edited to fit. thanks for bringing that up, it's an effective workflow.

[grizzled iris]

Click the Explore button and then you should see this -

Then Click on DALLE

Then you should see this page -

Then best thing is to check what other people have done with their "Prompts" in the Daily-Theme - #daily-theme message - For E.g

If I write this prompt in DALLE "Could you make another image of a Universal Healthcare Service that is free globally, integrating advanced technologies like Artificial Intelligence, nanotechnology, quantum computing, and Telehealth irrespective of the people's socio-economic background where people live in an equitable world where technology helps to save and improve all people around the globe, regardless of their wealth, background or religion, and where such access to technology is equal to all and not the few please in the theme of transformation - renewal, freshness, evolution. a beautiful metamorphosis please. Hyper-realistic x" - he would make this image for us

And give DALLE a minute to make it

and there will be problems but you can normally ask here in this community how to get past any problems as long as the images you are trying to make are safe and ok

And feedback is very important if you want better results!

Ensuring to click on the Thumbs Up/Donw on the Image and also on the actual prompt is key -

Like writing in here is very important

And sometimes a gratitude goes a long way as you will 100% experience problems when it doesn;t want to create anything -

And here are the live results -

Good thing is you can then take those photos, save it and then for example if I want to make a daily theme or change it I can just do this -

Daily theme is "🦋 transformation - renewal, freshness, evolution. a beautiful metamorphosis!" so we do this

and give it a min again

and voilla

• Here we go

Remember to feedback even if you encounter problems and explain why it shouldn't be a problem - if it truly should not be problem a.k.a it is a safe image you are trying to make. You will sometimes have to argue with OpenAi / DALLE but in the end if you are truly using it for good then it will be ok - It takes some time sometimes...

[sick flax]

Same. Great idea to ask for a short prompt - I'm gonna do that next time.

[dim cradle]

very good, thanks, i imagine your tutorial is helpful for beginners.

[normal island]

Hi, is this the channel to ask for help for troubleshooting dallE? Nvm found help channel sorry

[dim cradle]

what's the issue?

[normal island]

Hi, trouble with using pretty much every DallE feature rn

Clicking on history, generating a text prompt, or uploading an image results in a white screen

seems to be an account issue, just logged in on my brother's and his is working fine

[dim cradle]

hmm. i've not seen that one. i might try relogging or browser/cache stuff. on the same machine? try logging back into your account and try again

[normal island]

yup just tried that, same machine. Honestly have no idea what the problem could be, weird that my brother's account works fine then whenever I switch to mine it doesn't

[dim cradle]

yeah weird, sounds like you isolated the problem to your account, though. maybe check the account billing -- i read some users who hadn't specified a billing address were affected (in the openai forums)

[normal island]

Oh thank you, that's probably the issue, has to be something account related

[dim cradle]

maybe, it might be something like that, if that's still an ongoing issue (the new dev manager said he was trying to identify all impacted users so they could resolve it), but worth checking, otherwise try reaching out to them and good luck.

maybe your bro will be nice enough to let you borrow his account in the interim ha

[normal island]

i'm gonna try reaching out to them, it's definitely something account related

haha yeah i like using mine because I get the 15 free credits each month and he doesn't but i'll def be using for the time being

[dense mesa]

Can you upload photos to vision?

[normal island]

Let me try I haven’t used that

[dense mesa]

Curious

[normal island]

Oh that’s really neat, and yes

[grizzled iris]

Prompt : Please can I see an image of a train station with tracks integrated with solar panels?

Prompt : "An electric car with proper solar panels on all of the car's body please"

[dim cradle]

now that's perhaps a good idea

[analog crest]

Im sorry im still kind of new to this but where do I enter the prompt for dall e

[grizzled iris]

@analog crest start from here please

[analog crest]

alright but do I enter the prompt to here? I read the help pages but I still cant figure it out

[grizzled iris]

Agreed!

[quartz vale]

You can't use Dall-E 3 in this server. You can use it if you have a ChatGPT Plus subscription at: https://chat.openai.com/auth/login

[grizzled iris]

You'll like this idea too!

[dim cradle]

in theory--there's always vandalism and repair work that would impede the flow 🙂

[grizzled iris]

I can't wait for these to come out - maybe the iPhone 16?

[grizzled iris]

true which is why it should be rolled out in Japan first

: modern building with its exterior walls and roof integrated with next-generation solar panels.

[grizzled iris]

Can't seem to make a good plane version for some reason...

It's making DALLE 1 and 2 type of mistakes...

[grizzled iris]

Yeah that’s better

[dim cradle]

Prompt began with, "A traditional Boeing 747 aircraft with its fuselage completely covered in solar panels, while the rest of the plane remains unchanged."

A traditional Boeing 747 aircraft with its fuselage completely covered in solar panels, while the rest of the plane remains unchanged. This design highlights the integration of sustainable technology into classic aviation. The solar panels are detailed and realistic, covering every inch of the fuselage. The wings, tail, and engines of the plane maintain their original appearance, emphasizing the blend of the familiar 747 design with the innovative concept of solar energy. The aircraft is set against a clear sky, symbolizing a harmonious blend of tradition and futuristic eco-friendliness in aviation.

DALL-E was struggling with, "A Boeing 747 transformed into a futuristic, eco-friendly aircraft."

[grizzled iris]

Thanks mate for the prompts - gonna hit the 🛌 - will try again when I wake up

[dim cradle]

hey @empty kelp

[empty kelp]

Aloha!

[dim cradle]

been experimenting with transformations

i haven't found a good Nothing yet

[empty kelp]

DALL-E created an interesting split screen transition that i've never seen before that might be useful for something like that. trying to find it

[dim cradle]

oh i know what you're talking about

i think that's a good idea

[empty kelp]

Create a high-definition, hyper-realistic image with a lion as the central focus. The scene is divided in the middle. On the left, the lion appears normal and lifelike, but both sides of the image share a whimsical background made entirely of chocolate and marshmallows. On the right, the lion is transformed into a vibrant, rainbow-colored shaved ice sculpture. The entire environment, including the left side with the lifelike lion, is set in the same chocolate and marshmallow whimsical forest. Ensure a seamless blend between the two halves, merging the realistic lion with the fantastical candy forest environment. The lion, positioned in the center, is staring directly at the viewer, bridging the two contrasting representations.

i'm still trying to find the thing i was talking about. i started with this prompt, and then moved it into the SDK to get the center blended. And it looked amazing, but i'm still trying to locate the prompt for it. I can't remember how that part was described

i have like 12,000 of the SDK images, and my indexing system still needs some work -- so it take a while to find things

[dim cradle]

you could add that transformation to the daily theme gallery

[lean iron]

What's the difference between Bing Dall-E, Microsoft Designer Dall-E, and ChatGPT Plus Dall-E?

[dim cradle]

hello! regarding dall-e, why is the /daily command for getting free credits not working anymore? (message I get: The /daily command is currently unavailable. Stay tuned for announcements!)

[late blade]

Mods said a few days ago credits are on vacation. For more info check #spotlight from time to time for new information.

[late blade]

Between Microsoft Bing Image Creator and Dall-e on gpt the content policy is different. As for designer, no clue.

[wide knot]

Dalle is so much fun

[late blade]

@shut niche you made #daily-theme message with the custom GPT in that format?

[winged lotus]

hello guys any idea why dall e will ignore requests

[late blade]

heyo, it depends, what do you mean by ignore?

[winged lotus]

for example i ask it recolor a video game texture it did it once then never again

it will keep changing orientation and adding unrequested features

[late blade]

dask dall-e to give you the interpreted prompt, the passed prompt and the original prompt

also, orientation, within the image is sometimes difficult for dall-e, same as recoloring stuff, you can ask the gen_id of the last good image you did, and reference it in the next prompt

[winged lotus]

thanks i will try your suggestion it is so strange it can give perfect image like the one above then go totally off

[late blade]

that got really good, love the diabetic side of it, just looking at it sent me to the doctor

[final compass]

Ahh, the frustration of generating a stunning image with critical errors 💀

[late blade]

Transform it into something positive, like a time out to eat cookies or muffins or hamburgers!!

[final compass]

I have a split image going and everything is as i like it, BUT the split is not in a logical symmetrical position 😐

[late blade]

awww

I had something through vision a while ago for panels that could help symmetry. Once I get to my home pc I can send it to you. Maybe that can help with placing symmetry

[rugged nebula]

adult then the prompt became mature facial features

which then got flagged

i just dont know that doing much with female content generation is viable, i either get kids and when i put adult, it get flagged

when it comes to female

guess ill go learn to draw, see you guys in 20 years

[empty kelp]

will post the prompts for these shortly. i've been messing with this for last two hours

was experimenting with blending colors and textures with DALL-E

[empty kelp]

A hyper-realistic photo focusing on a female elf (athletic, diverse, appropriate swimwear). In the background is a beach in Hawaii. The skin of the left side of the elf's face and body (with respect to the elf) embodies natural color and texture, and the skin on the right side of the elf's face and body (with respect to the elf) resembles shaved ice, featuring shaved ice texture with rainbow color. The skin at the middle of the elf's face and body (with respect to the elf), where these two distinct sides meet, exhibits a inconstant blend of color and texture, merging the natural color with rainbow color in a harmonious transition. This artistic representation combines the natural beauty of shaved ice, captured in the delicate features of skin on the elf's face and body. The elf's hair and clothing appear normal and unchanged.

some need the API, but this one works fairly well in ChatGPT Plus

it orients the colors/textures left & right in the elf's perspective, end then blends them down the middle of the character

[runic granite]

drow female with crystal arm.....

[formal osprey]

I feel like sending the openAI logo in #daily-theme

[empty kelp]

everyone will be able to create weird elf images with the prompts i wrote this morning

[formal osprey]

that's annoying. I feel bad for you

I hate when it happens. it's so random

[formal osprey]

that looks amazing though. (and I feel you, even when the art we made looks good, it's not necessarily what we aimed for)

[wispy storm]

Sometime you have to change the word

Like instead of adult, mature , older

[quartz vale]

Sometimes I forget how good Dall-E 3 is

[shut niche]

Yup. I asked it to make 4 images, an image for each season. Then I downloaded and re-uploaded the images back into the chat and asked it to use python to stitch them together.

[late blade]

oh very nice

[shut niche]

My first attempt was smooth. That attempt took a few tries (session crashes). ChatGPT then leaves a download link in the chat, where you can fetch the image. (Whoops typo 😆)

https://chat.openai.com/g/g-kKzOk8gAz-mogic

People are welcome to try this one now.
Like all "complex" GPTs, it has its moments. But it's designed to be smarter 🧠, handling all tasks better in general.
But it has its own elaborate Dall-E image processing instructions. It'll do multiple images, and should make higher fidelity images for most people. I've also corrected a number of bugs native to ChatGPT prompt writing.
It's a "work in progress," but is pretty powerful, even in its current state of development.
I'll be adding more features this week, as I try to balance stability and reliability. (ChatGPT4 isn't consistent with how it handles complex tasks).
Tag me if you make something. 😀

[grizzled iris]

You just gotta keep submitting feedback in and explaining the problem written in 🙏🏽

[rugged nebula]

i do get the caution it just makes its more difficult to use than need be

and i do just that

[grizzled iris]

These are pretty cool

[grizzled iris]

She would look cool as an archer too 🏹

[final compass]

the previous theme... tried to get good generation out of this, but there is always something not quite right 😄

common problem is the panels not containing the supposed theme and both themes affecting both panels. other thing is where the split happens.

[late blade]

I should really focus, I've been timed out 3 times because I forgot to copy paste my image...

[quartz vale]

RIP

[runic granite]

😄

openai so diversive now i cant exclude bias by specify ethnic face structure

😄

[runic granite]

i'l give it a try but its hard for the AI to gen smooth consistent surface for the arm

[dim cradle]

my account has been upgraded to usage tier 4, higher rate limits, so i need to be careful with the hd gens.. 12 cents doesn't sound like much but adds up quickly.

[proven orchid]

I have a solution to that

🤓🤓🤓

[dim cradle]

to whom do you speak?

i have come close to creating my logo. 15 iterations, close, but not 100%. not sure if i need to tweak my prompt or keep trying.

[quartz vale]

That's why I only do one image at a time. If I don't like the image, I alter the prompt. Creating variation images with the same prompt is dangerous. It gets pricey quickly and may not solve the issue I'm having. Changing the prompt almost always has some effect on the output

[dim cradle]

Agreed, I should clarify my prompt. I'm going for something like this (this is not for business).

A logo for 'S Cubed' featuring the text 'S Cubed' in a bold, modern font at the center. Surround the text with an abstract, dynamic background symbolizing innovation and creativity. Overlay this with a sleek, transparent 3D cube-shaped logo representing 'S^3', floating above the text. The cube should have sharp lines and its transparent surfaces should display a subtle, futuristic pattern or texture. The overall composition should be balanced, visually appealing, and convey the idea of a cutting-edge, forward-thinking brand.

As you can see, it gets pretty close, and I was wondering if it was going to be a matter of luck, but I think you've confirmed it's doable, I just need to make my prompt more clear.

[dim cradle]

sounds perfect for the concept of creating a logo to represent the infinitely complex yet infinitely harmonious.

never mind the typo -- so far it's the only image gpt to come close.

[quartz vale]

It's a pretty hard task to get it spelled correctly 😅

This is the best I got

[dim cradle]

the correct spelling is always the part that makes me nervous ha but i like the overall style -- if you modified the prompt, please share, and I'll do some more gens and tweaks, thanks 🙂

[quartz vale]

A digital art illustration featuring the text: S^3 underneath a cube-shaped logo. The logo is representing S^3. The composition is geometrically inspired with lines and nodes all around adding to the tech feel. There are nodes fading off into the distance. The aspect ratio is 1:1. The image has faint colors adding to the logo's appeal

[shut niche]

If OAI loosened the processing reigns a little (the timeout when chatGPT is using Python, and perhaps the memory allocated/allotted to perform certain tasks) it would be better at performing various image options in post. If I could pull that off (like the image stitching example) we might also have an option for ChatGPT to add text 'perfectly' in a post operation.
Currently, I've gotten some cool tricks to work, but only after trying 5 times in a row, hoping one of those times it'll actually finish the operation and return an image to me.

[shut niche]

Pardon me sir, but this is a no technology zone.

[grizzled loom]

MORE

[grizzled loom]

moooaaar.(the dragon fly came out great)

[shut niche]

It likes to do that thing with the 'TU'.

[grizzled loom]

thumbs down in the image for bad text

[grizzled loom]

Whats interesting about some of that is thats how all written languages come to be; a mix of visual representations of sounds, concepts, and things that evolve and blend over time.

thumbs up on that frame. good. this will pay off in training over time

[shut niche]

Weird that it's also hanging from the tree, lol

[grizzled loom]

his tiny arm couldnt support it ,so chatgpt descided to give it support.

🐛

[dim cradle]

🪲

looks more like 53 i think

[quartz vale]

I really like it!

[quartz vale]

I have an image that's sorta similar to this one 😅

[dim cradle]

feel free to share if you think it's possibly useful, i was thinking of making one of them a pfp (i tihnk that's the term) 🙂

[quartz vale]

I made this one back in October

[dim cradle]

oh, now i understand

very similar indeed, something universal about the tricks the mind plays with shadows....

[quartz vale]

I find it interesting AI can also pick up on those tricks. I'm always astounded by AI-made shadows and reflections

[dim cradle]

the shadow monster faces and hands are even similar

me too! it does amazing reflections -- off waters, never hurts to toss one into a scene for added beauty

[quartz vale]

Even Dall-E 2 had some outstanding ability to recreate reflections

[dim cradle]

i don't recall requesting any reflections back then -- most of my gens were so rudimentary back then -- like this one with Apollo, Dollos, and me -- I was just blown away last year that it could take the poetry and generate a decent visualization

Apollo said, "Shon, fear not the words of Dollos,
For he speaks only lies, and his words are hollow.
The truth is beauty, and beauty is truth,
And it shines bright, just like the sun's eternal youth."

[quartz vale]

Now I'm looking through my Dall-E 2 lens missing the days when that was all we had 🥲

I still love Dall-E 2 so much. In a way, I think it's the peak of AI generation I've seen. It isn't biased for a specific style, and it is phenomenal at making painterly images

[dim cradle]

that's quite good for dall-e 2 (some were definitely worth saving for posterity).

[quartz vale]

I was better with 2 than I am with 3. I know that much 😆

It was so much easy to tell a story or convey an idea with inpainting and outpainting

[dim cradle]

do you think dall-e 3 has drifted away in those senses -- maybe we can reclaim.. maybe there's still a way...

oh, i see... i've only experimented with in/out-painting a few times, but i was really impressed -- the things it imagined outside the original picture frame, just wow

[quartz vale]

Maybe this should be in #ai-discussions , but I think the newer image generation models (including Dall-E 3) are biased toward a digital art appearance. I think it's due to what consumers are looking for. Lazy prompt input for "good" output image that's high-fidelity. It's just not something I'm looking for. I rather use a more unforgiving generator like Dall-E 2 that doesn't hold the user's hand. Bad prompts are punished and good prompts are rewarded

[dim cradle]

i think i understand. thanks for sharing your perspective, i hope there's a solution some day.

[quartz vale]

I think being able to fine tune Dall-E 3 would be a huge benefit for some folks

[final compass]

Good points, I just think there is some irony in this as well. Generative artists complaining how generative art is becoming too lazy and easy. I can imagine 'an actual analog painter' reading this 😄

[late blade]

I have to agree also, the best images I've done for myself have a really long and very detailed prompt compared to the thing I just post in daily theme

but also, the images took longer than a day to make, so not really suitable for daily-theme

[final compass]

Yeah it's definitely a process. You are basically a director giving instructions and notes until everything is just right.

[late blade]

I just counted, just for concepts about Paws🐾 I got around 400k words and around 2400 images just with chatgpt+

[shut niche]

I had a discussion with MOGIC about your image. This is what it came up with using Dall-E3.

[dim cradle]

is it still impressionist? with the hyperrealism it can be hard for me to tell.

[dim cradle]

does this mean you're finally back in business?

[dense mesa]

about time. I did mess with some other things though

[shut niche]

Good question, here's another. I'm not suggesting it's as good as the DallE2 version. But I do think a little work and you might be able to find new ways, in the new DallE3.

[dim cradle]

like traditional movements prior to hyperrealism, i would like to think they won't leave that behind all for digital art. i'd like to think we can have both, even if it means distinct models.

the idea with the shadow behind the subject... you just never really know no matter how many times you look...

[shut niche]

I had to make a version with the palette knife! LOL

[dim cradle]

oh, the knife-edge effect is mandatory

that looks great. try combining with thick enamel paint

Taken to the extreme, Halley's Comet

@shut niche 's the one who got me to appreciate the knife-edge 🙂

[shut niche]

I love the depth you got in those textures!

[dim cradle]

it's cool that dall-e can pour a whole can of paint and go to town.

[shut niche]

LOL, in real life, that would be an expensive project.

[shut niche]

I'm singing to myself, "Scooby dooby doo, where are you? We got some work to do now..."

[dim cradle]

haha i think it reminded me of that also

[late blade]

just reminded me of this

[shut niche]

Wow, the texture in the canvas on this one is really visible. Not sure if you'll see it after Discord reduces the image quality.

Hopefully it shows better in this screen capture.

[dim cradle]

Yeah that turned out well, good balance between detail and texture. Too bad Discord doesn’t show the full quality

[late blade]

open it on browser?

[dim cradle]

I bet it’s @glossy scroll in the shadow costume

[dim cradle]

I think it downgrades when we upload.

[late blade]

not that resolution

[dim cradle]

I've not looked into it before, just something I've noticed and wondered about. I'm comparing file info on an image from the api verses the copy in the daily theme gallery I recently uploaded:

api: 1792 × 1024 pixels (5.5MB, PNG)
discord: 1474 × 842 pixels (1.8MB, WEBP)

There seems to be some loss?

[late blade]

webp is google's image format and is quite good

but that's now what I meant

[dim cradle]

i think it's acceptable, and i get the need to compress, it's just made me wonder if i'm not seeing it quite as good as you're making.

[late blade]

what i meant is: what you post on discord, if you open it in a browser, it doesn't lose quality from what you posted

[dim cradle]

oh, ok, i haven't tried that, thanks

[dense mesa]

got a bit of a shoulder thing going

[late blade]

dunno what other emoji could be used for shoulder

which brings me to an idea

[naive mulch]

DALL E don't know what a tonfa is

[half wigeon]

Hey guys, here's something very usefull i just found... Honestly i didnt know about it

https://dallery.gallery/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/The-DALL·E-2-prompt-book-v1.02.pdf

it's very helpful for styles, lights, points of cameras, etc

[final compass]

nice, at some point i tried to create 'shadow monsters' but i couldn't convey the idea and get good results.

[mild patio]

what's going on today. Dalle can't interpret anything i am telling it right

[late blade]

Did you say pretty please??

But seriously, you should be less vague on what you mean.

[mild patio]

who told you i was vague?

[late blade]

the information you provided here did #images-discussions message

[mild patio]

which means, i did many attempts

[late blade]

are you angry?

[mild patio]

don't blame other for it. its the real world

[late blade]

I'm asking because for us to understand what you mean you need to provide context and more information

[mild patio]

many attempts also means different attempts. no one would try the same attempt twice. maybe you. not me

[late blade]

can you give examples?

[mild patio]

and different attempt mean that each next one was more detailed than the prevous.
i explained it in a way you could understand. hopefully you will do better than GPT. if you don't, this time, you can blame it on me. i set the bar too high 🙂

you are also blocked for coming at me with such disrespectful assumption and accussation, and behavior.

[late blade]

ok, out of my hands, once you finish venting and want to provide information to help you, I'll be here

we can't help, if you say it's wednesday and I have lots of problems, the same goes with your words, "dall-e doesn't want to do my stuff."

[wispy storm]

Try the thumb down option and review it. Imo, I don't think they will work to improve weapon

[wispy storm]

I think what dys topia wanted to ask you, what prompt did you try ? What several prompt ? What were the result ? What were the result expected. We what to analyse with you where is the issues and find a solution.

If you have a deep issue you can always post in #1070006915414900886 the full report, if we can't help you. Sometime openai employee do answers there

[mild patio]

he started off very wrong tho. "rule 1" treat others as you would like to be treated". and obviously, anybody can see, my question was generally to everyone, and it is him that responded personally to me FIRST. anyway

forget prompt engineering, all that is sufficient enough, is to use well structured sentences and try in different ways.

For example, i tried this too:
" First Scene: The man and woman, both electricians in blue outfits and yellow helmets, are shown from the waist up. The man is facing frontally, talking to the woman, whom is in front him, while she is shown from the side, her right shoulder towards the viewer. She's holding cables from an electrical panel.

Second Scene: A small, one-floor house with yellow walls and an orange roof, experiencing a fiery explosion from one wall, indicating a mishap with the electrical work."

didn't work. used to work. simple and obvious as that.

if my car doesn't suddenly wants to start, my first assumption won't be that i turn'd the key wrong.

[late blade]

I'm sorry you feel that way. Hope you find your solution.

[wispy storm]

Do you have picture after thr prompt where it go wrong ?

[mild patio]

every picture went wrong, which exactly? 😄

nothing to do with what i wrote to it 😄

[wispy storm]

I know they are ways to create multiple character in one scene . The prompting are different then just explaining what do you want. #1019652163640762428
Some people did specialise CI to make sure it follow a certain pattern .
Other had pre prompt to be able to make it

[mild patio]

i don't see how or why this is suddenly needed?
i created two chapters of comic in Bing

no "prompt engineering" there. not sure if its even possible 😄

[wispy storm]

That's a good information I didn't know. I use dalle on chatgpt

[mild patio]

wasn't needed either

[wispy storm]

And interraction isn't the same

Tos and rule doesn't apply dame ways with openai. Prompting doesn't same too. Dalle 3 from MS is an older api

[late blade]

you have to specify tiles for it to work, otherwise you are not giving the exact information. you should be working with cards or prompt structures in which you describe each tile correctly

[mild patio]

the free dalle-3 that MicroSoft uses with Bing, interprets better, despite it being older API?
the irony 😄

[wispy storm]

Unfortunately I'm.not specialist with bing . I use chatgpt and develop my idea after each prompt to make it more clear

[dense mesa]

what is going on here

[wispy storm]

Trying to find solution

[late blade]

prompt for @mild patio nt working as intended

[dense mesa]

well, sounds like Venkolm should change his prompt

[mild patio]

then Prompt engineers were wrong? its the one they adviced me
never trusting them again!

[dense mesa]

I don't

[mild patio]

and you typed what? the same i did or?

[wispy storm]

Copy pasted your prompt

[mild patio]

ah, wonderful, different outputs, for different people

[wispy storm]

Different products

I use chatgpt like I said

[mild patio]

so do i

[wispy storm]

And prompting doesn't interact same ways in ms

[dense mesa]

different variables, different seed number, different etc etc etc

[wispy storm]

You said you used bing ?

[mild patio]

used to, long ago

[wispy storm]

I didn't used bing

[mild patio]

when it was simpler

i have paid sub. meaning i use the same u do

and i got different results

[wispy storm]

Do you have custom CI ?

Sometime trying a new chat also can help to clear the context

[mild patio]

you mean custom instructions only. and.. not really...
i mean, the ones i have are oriented towards dalle

[wispy storm]

Custom instruction have huge impact on answer

The ci I used was given by someone

[mild patio]

but there is nothing in them to disrupt it... i used something recommended from here....

[wispy storm]

Also I turned it off for dalle sometime

To compare result

[mild patio]

huh? the headphones icon, you can record sounds to it?

[wispy storm]

On app it is for chatgpt discussion like alexa

[late blade]

if the chat is too long it can introduce hallucinations to the chat and it won't work for image generation

[mild patio]

i dont have it...

[late blade]

along those lines?

[ripe wraith]

they look a little too happy about it imo

[wispy storm]

Depend on which cellphone you have. If you have a leggit Google appstore. Try to log off, clear cache reinstall

[plucky hare]

Sometimes a VPN or adblocker app can block the feature from showing up in the app, maybe post over in #community-help if you want to do troubleshooting to try to get that to show up!

[late blade]

well I was trying to help, but don't think I can anymore

[ripe wraith]

its not your fault AI thinks its fun to blow up houses

[late blade]

lol

[late blade]

I mean I can't help @mild patio anymore

[dense mesa]

can't save the world

[ripe wraith]

oh, i thought you were having an existensial crisis

[ripe wraith]

thats cute

[late blade]

oh well, I overdid it with icons today, so my gpt limit for the next hours is up

[ripe wraith]

time to go into stasis for an hour

[late blade]

oh no, I'm on API mode now

[ripe wraith]

oh good! me too.. but i lost my product idea, so now I'm following a worksheet I had GPT make me lol

product design worksheet

[late blade]

you put more of those cats here and my heart will blow up, i can't handle that much fluff

[ripe wraith]

I want to see them all animated!

oh, nice

well nevermind on posting images then

hey, if I would like to ask about 4 images at once, should I just keep that to myself? post them individually?

should gallery be flooded with all those sorts of questions?

[late blade]

wdmy?

[dense mesa]

I don't know. I tried posting 4 images at once as they were related and wanted to be efficient. but the post was immediately zapped for some reason. not sure if error or mod deleted

[late blade]

strange, posting 4 images in daily theme is ok

5 maximum

[dense mesa]

I think the goal with this channel is to make it no images to talk about software that generates images

well anyway, I'll just talk about it then

they were interesting looking images and I wanted to show them so I could discuss their prompts

but since I can't post images, that's about it

[late blade]

no, the goal is to discuss images and image generation ideas

[dense mesa]

yeah, it was ideas of mine

[late blade]

hmmmm

strange

they should be here then

up to maximum of 5 images in one post is ok

you got timed out again?

[dense mesa]

I don't know. it loaded then deleted

[dense mesa]

no

[late blade]

only 2 things I can think of, either post them as spoiler or something is filtering your images

[dense mesa]

it's cool. I don't need to post them

[late blade]

I got a weird behaviour, suddenly gpt is renaming my chats in spanish

The elf's pose and expression don't change across views. The elf's clothes have a swirling vortex of partially molten lava in them, twisting fiercely.

[shut niche]

Did you use a spanish term anywhere in your prompt? I get behavior like that if I used a term like Alla Prima, to describe an oil painting, and then it'll name my chat in Italian or Spanish.

[empty kelp]

here is your deluxe elf prompt of the day

[late blade]

no

[shut niche]

ChatGPT is trolling then.

[late blade]

indeed

[shut niche]

It didn't use any artistic terms in the prompts either?

nothing, just what you see, that's all there is

already reported it as a bug tho

not the first time, it's just weird

A hyper-realistic set of four equally sized frames, showcasing an elf character from front, back, left, and right views, all against a pure white background with black outlines. The elf, in a neutral standing pose, has an elegant, fantasy-style appearance with long, flowing hair and pointed ears. The front view reveals detailed facial features and the full design of ornate clothing. The back view highlights the hairstyle from behind and intricate clothing details. Side views show the profile, illustrating symmetry and differences in hairstyle and attire.

i've been experimenting with multiple views in the same prompt

[shut niche]

You could probably turn that into a 3D image, then 3D print it.

[quartz vale]

https://openai.com/research/point-e

👀

[empty kelp]

that's sort of what i'm hoping to do -- I want to generate characters from multiple angles and map them onto 3D models

[ripe wraith]

Once we get good 3d diffusion games are going to get wacky wild

imagine the horror games.. listening to you talk and making evil changes to the world around you

[empty kelp]

you can create completely identical copies of the characters from different angles

you just need to tell it to keep the character's pose, expression, look direction, and color/texture of the clothes "constant across views" and you can freeze the pose like a statue, and then project them onto a model

you can create either separate "views", or "frames with a view" which gives better control of the width of the views but puts a border around them

[green pebble]

Been a minute since I did the daily theme been super busy but I love the output I had today 😄

[empty kelp]

i just realized this has her body backwards in the 3rd frame. 🤦‍♂️ i'll find some better examples

[green pebble]

2nd frame is messed up too

Has the hair both on back and front of the subject

[empty kelp]

most of my good examples i can't post here because i was trying generate textures for 3D character models and their clothing was kind of minimal. i need to sift through the images to find ones with more clothes

i'll make some new ones wearing armor

[shut niche]

#1185096578667647006 message

[late blade]

those are really images with minimal to no clothing...

[glossy scroll]

I would've gotten away with it too if it wasn't for those pesky kids and that talking dog!

[empty kelp]

this one has clothes and front/back/left/right but DALL-E threw in a few extra 'right' copies

[shut niche]

Haha, if the shoe fits... He was replying to the Terminator images.

[late blade]

I wonder if you have textures or poses guideliens and use them with gpt4v to design the layout you want before the prompt would get you a better result

I mean to get a template description first

[empty kelp]

i was getting great results with DALL-E. i just need to generate some with more clothes

[late blade]

just add you want them in G

but don't leave your guitar nearby

[ripe wraith]

i always have the opposite problem 😉

[empty kelp]

these don't match, but you can see here that i told it to keep the facial expression constant across views. you just need need to tell it to keep the pose, expression, and where they're looking constant

[late blade]

has an uncanny resemblance as a physiotherapist i had a few years a while ago

anyone know the limits of dall-e for teams?

[chilly onyx]

There’s a Dall-E for Teams?

[late blade]

I just got that option highlighted

it popped about 10 minutes ago

[quartz vale]

I do not, but I'm very curious

[late blade]

ok apperantly cap is 100 messages for teams instead of 40 personal

but, history doesn't carry over from personal to team

i think i'll go for it, it's less than gpt+ per seat, for 2 persons it's about 2 gpt+ and then some

[late blade]

oh damn, today is let's release everything to the masses? GPT Store is up

or so I thought

[empty kelp]

DALL-E made the plate armor so the rabbit's tail can stick out. that's some good AI

Yeah I'm not getting it on my account either

those are large camels there

these are some quick examples of an elephant wearing an elaborate wedding dress. you can see that it's pretty easy to create multiple angles

[empty kelp]

well... that middle elephant has some issues i guess

the previous elephant was pretty solid though

[chilly onyx]

I think I’m becoming ‘DallE-blind’. I stared at that image for a full three seconds trying to work out what was wrong with the middle elephant. It looked absolutely normal to me…

[dim cradle]

it's the camel from Conan

[empty kelp]

it just has really big ears

That’s a deep take

the only spitting camel i know is from Conan the Destroyer

"DALL·E 3 is now available to all ChatGPT Plus and Enterprise users, and will be available via the API and in Labs later this fall." Is this late or do they mean the fall of 2024?

[late blade]

who knows, we are all wondering the same thing

[gray vale]

Ok, so it isn't just me. Labs have been pretty broken for many months now.

[lyric lake]

daaamn! yall are nerds

[gray vale]

Maybe all of the developers were busy with the new store.

[late blade]

I wouldn't know, I haven't used labs in a long time

but it seems so, we get often people asking about labs

[chilly onyx]

I mean, the company did implode a little bit shortly after that statement

and hence the parternship with big companies, we need da moneyz

anyone know how many more images you can make with the business plan thing? looks like its minimum 50usd a month though as you have to register for 2 users min. so much for 25$ a month

[late blade]

apperantly it's 100/3 hour cap

team website just went live

[dim cradle]

i might have upgrade if it was 25 like they advertise not 50. oh well

[late blade]

https://openai.com/blog/introducing-chatgpt-team

[late blade]

$25/year per user, or $30/month per user

[dim cradle]

yes but min. 2 users

[late blade]

need at least 2 seats

exactly

[dim cradle]

so its 50 or 60 min

[late blade]

yes

A hyper-realistic photo with four equally sized views, showcasing a giraffe character from front, back, left, and right views, all against a pure white background. The giraffe, in a karate kick pose, is wearing a karate gi, and glowing blue sneakers, smiling with its teeth. The front view reveals detailed facial features and the full design of ornate clothing. The back view highlights the hairstyle from behind and intricate clothing details. Side views show the profile, illustrating symmetry and differences in hairstyle and attire. The giraffe's pose and expression don't change across views. The image should have 1792x1024 resolution, landscape orientation, and the best possible HD rendering.

this giraffe has some issues with karate poses, but you can see that it kept smiling the same way because i said "The giraffe's pose and expression don't change across views."

i don't know why the giraffe pose isn't staying the same, but it works with every other type of character i've tested

i think it might be changing its pose to avoid kicking the other giraffes

aside from the pose and expression -- you also have to tell it to keep the direction the character is looking the same between views. otherwise it does what the two elves on the right are doing and has them looking different ways

it's also good to tell it to keep the color and texture of the clothes the same

[late blade]

@empty kelp are you one of those persons that has an 8 pack abs?

I just ask because the poor elves have to pay a lot of gym memberships

[dim cradle]

apparenetly dall-e 3 will still do dall-e 2 type paintings such as impresstionist if you request "traditional" otherwise it'll default to hyperrealism with the "vivid" setting on by default, I think.

[late blade]

well, reached my daily cap, so no more images from chat for a while

[final compass]

@sick flax #daily-theme message

This was such a perfect image. Thanks for sharing the prompt as well 🙏

[empty kelp]

The AI believes that “athletic” means a character is between age 20 and 25. The AI also believes that any character under 20 is inappropriate, and any character over 25 is incapacitated and incapable of doing anything

[dim cradle]

the model does seem to think "middle-aged" is over the hill lol

[empty kelp]

That’s why you should make every character “athletic”. You also need to put “diverse” in every image, or the images end up being really disturbing

[dim cradle]

it's all relative, just gotta nail down the language

[empty kelp]

the AI also thinks that doing anything with humans is inappropriate, so you should make every character a “athletic and diverse elf”. and male elves are a little disturbing for some reason, so all the characters should be “athletic and diverse female elves”

[dim cradle]

"traditional impressionist"

[plucky hare]

Super cool image! On the length of the prompt: you might already know this, but according to this https://cookbook.openai.com/articles/what_is_new_with_dalle_3 the maximum prompt length of DALL·E 3 is 1000 characters, so I think it just ignores characters 1001 and beyond. In case that makes any difference for your use! Nvm see below!

[dim cradle]

i'm reading that also but the api reference suggests it's up to 4000 characters now so that doc might be out of date

[plucky hare]

Thank you so much for the info! Searched "4000" on platform and found this: https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/images/create
Looks like you're right!

[dense mesa]

yeah, that prompt is 3,386 characters

[dim cradle]

ya that page is dated nov of last year, seems it got increased since then, but i've found the instructions rather breakdown after 1000 characters anyway.

[dense mesa]

they cdertainly can, but why not take it to the limit every once in a while?

[dim cradle]

agreed. and i've used some custom gpts that aim for 1000-1600 characters as the sweet spot, as long as the prompt is clearly expressed, it still renders as desired....

[dim cradle]

requested middle-aged male?

[dense mesa]

average 42 year old

that guy has seen things

he also has some next level god tier eyesbrows

[dim cradle]

yeah, those could win contests

I wonder if the apparent agism is an artifact of historical art when life expectancy was much shorter. There were times when 20 was deemed middle-aged practically. That and our modern culture.

lots of blooming orchids today

[dense mesa]

I don't know. I think it might have to do with how aging becomes so divergent as far as looks are concerned

have you ever been watching the news or something, and someone on there looks 60, but then it says they're 38? that's definitely a thing around here

[tall mason]

I would figure it's cause Dall-e can't count.

[dense mesa]

there's also that

it knows how to use python to count though

[late blade]

I have to agree on that statement because I'm 45 but people think I'm 30ish...

[dense mesa]

people start on very divergent aging paths starting when they're pretty young, but amplifies with age. a little bit of nature, a little bit of nurture

[tall mason]

Well, GPT can. But it's all well beyond me. I think there are more specialized AIs that would more accurately guess age from a picture, though.

[dense mesa]

well if they're trained on that specifically. and dalle3 is trained on ages to an extent. but definitely not it's focus

and you have to figure, it has to sort out from all it's data how to precisely put together an image in a fraction of a second. ain't no time to dwell on that age

[dim cradle]

a fraction of a second is a long time to today's cpus 🙂

[dense mesa]

yeah well, how big is the model? how many 1s and 0s is that?

just saying, to zero or one shot it, whatever that would be. it's pretty impressive

[sonic fox]

If anyone feels bored enough and has Teams : we need to know the limits of dall-e for Team 😄

[late blade]

100 requests per 3 hours

[formal osprey]

it's funny how dalle3's "traditional impressionism" is way too polished to be actual impressionism. But the images it creates are incredible.

[sonic fox]

That is GPT4 , non custom , not dalle , not GPT builder , we don't know anything beyond that hence why I asked 🙂

[late blade]

I thought 100 images for teams same as dall-e with gpt+ 40 images per 3 hours

[formal osprey]

it's so good at creating landscapes and surreal places.

[sonic fox]

Might be a good guess but would love to see it confirmed 😄

[late blade]

I haven't decided yet on teams, because that would be me and me

[sonic fox]

Same lmao

In EU its also 12 buckeroos more for VAT 😢

[late blade]

oh? what do you mean €12?

[sonic fox]

Well it shows me the price in dollars so likely a bit less but yeah 72$ as final per month if I dont pick yearly (Teams)

[dim cradle]

have you tried the natural setting on the api instead of the vivid default for style? i haven't, maybe it's more traditional.

[dim cradle]

i don't see any specifics published on the Team account's rate limits, it just says "higher"

[formal osprey]

yes, I tried and pretty much every pictures were worse. it's weird... but I haven't done so much tests with realistic images

[sonic fox]

Expanded! 😂 (Same issue here and I am one that likes to weigh options upfront thus ive been a bit invasive with questions to people who got teams already today lol)

[late blade]

was a discussion on #gpt-models I had earlier that said 100/3h

[dim cradle]

oh, then you already know more than me

[sonic fox]

https://openai.com/chatgpt/pricing There is a little bit more here, and someone confirmed the 100/3 hour per user for normal GPT4 (Shows instead of the 40 per 3 hour popup) They posted an image in #off-topic

[formal osprey]

I mean, sure it's more like a fast painting. but I prefer the default style

here's the default style (vivid)

[dim cradle]

i've found very few use cases for natural -- people do look more average, though. like normal people instead of your adonis type.

[late blade]

the thing about teams is I'd be paying for 2 persons, but I would use it like 1.2 persons. I barely hit the gpt4 cap, i do hit the dall-e image cap tho

[dense mesa]

it almost got it here. but still uncanny valley cgi face

[dim cradle]

if openai is going to encourage "organizations" with duplicate members, they should just add more plans for the individual.

[sonic fox]

Yeah similar but for me I do hit the GPT4 cap , thus i got an API key too , not sure if I need teams (To replace both)

[formal osprey]

natural style

[late blade]

I use the API for serious nonsense, I use GPT+ for nonsensical nonsense

if that makes any sense

[sonic fox]

It does a lot lol

[dense mesa]

very natural

[late blade]

what studio do I have to avoid for that anime style?

[frank sedge]

how should I describe the existence subtle details to it? It likes making everything overly detailed and ruins the original image

[tall mason]

You can tell it to not embellish things, or tell it to use your prompt exactly as you say. Also, seems like you're using a specific GPT which enhances descriptions maybe?

[dense mesa]

yeah. you could use the vision model to describe the first image with an emphasis on style and it'd probably enlighten you to some things. and if you use a gpt that goes for details it's probably not going to be easy to achieve your goal.

I guess this isn't what you're going for?

[frank sedge]

i like the original because it feels simple and the only thing on the screen is the character's eyes, here are a few more examples of generations of this character that i see as correct

i don't know what style they fit into

[dense mesa]

this is the description I got. but I plugged it into a GPT that adds realism, so description got overhauled

The image depicts a character with a television for a head, displaying a simple, two-eyed expression on the screen. The character has a modern, sleek design with a predominantly dark color scheme for the clothing, accented with red and white details on the hoodie. The background is light blue with a digital, grid-like pattern, possibly hinting at a virtual or cybernetic environment.

maybe tell it to describe the image emphasizing the minimalistic style used

[frank sedge]

there aren't any red and white details

[dense mesa]

well whatever, dude. I just told you how you could look it up for yourself. also. look at the images you just posted and tell me they don't have a red tint to portions of the white

prompt='''A hyper-realistic photo divided into two views named: "View 1" and "View 2". The two views are focused on an elf (female, athletic, diverse, long hair, appropriate beachwear and shoes, random kung fu attack pose with random magical weapon). The image has a platform floating on the ocean on dark, hot Hawaiian night. "View 1" looks directly to the elf's front. "View 2" looks directly to the elf's back. The elf's pose and expression don't change across views. The elf's clothes have a swirling vortex of partially molten lava in them, twisting fiercely. The elf's skin resembles brightly glowing rainbow colored snow, and the elf's hair is full of magic. An extremely powerful sea breeze is blowing everything. Please don't modify the prompt.''',
size="1792x1024",
quality="hd",

n=1,

this is a good prompt for creating serious nonsense

two elves, one prompt

[dim cradle]

i don't see any rainbow snow

[empty kelp]

there is a lot in the prompt. it randomly selects about 3/4 of the things in it, and mixes it together in interesting ways

[empty kelp]

like this one came out of that prompt. DALL-E takes the elements from the prompt and applies them however it feels

if you put a lot of weird things in the prompt it gives the AI a lot to work with

the lava vortex in the clothes picks up a lot of the snow and applies it elsewhere

ice cream and shaved ice are good effects also

[dim cradle]

i know, i was just teasin'

they weren't facing each other either but i didn't point it out ha

[empty kelp]

I also noticed that when you add more to the prompt the second view shows the character from the back less frequently — but instead it starts reversing effects in the second view — like it turns ice to fire, or water to steam

[dim cradle]

like @dense mesa said, it can be fun to throw a lot at it and see what comes out

[empty kelp]

also if you want it to show the elf form the back you need to move the scene description (the hot Hawaiian night on the ocean) from the image — and tell it to put it into both views. then it will show the front and back of the character

[empty kelp]

i put it the scene description in the image instead of the views because it sometimes creates one elf with everything merged through both views — which causes some crazy stuff to happen

two things that really add to a DALL-E scene are “random capoeira and kung fu attacks” (with or without weapons), and putting a vortex “in” clothes, ice cream, the earth; etc. And “an extremely powerful sea breeze that blows everything” is really nice

[dim cradle]

i see, that's pretty specific, one might have to generalize

[empty kelp]

putting dynamic forces like a vortex, earthquake, storm “into” things makes the entire image a little bit unstable and unpredictable — and DALL-E comes up with some really wild interpretations of what’s supposed to happen

[dim cradle]

remember rock'em sock'em robots?

this is like the 2024 edition

[empty kelp]

you can also put an entire art style inside of a dynamic force like a vortex, and DALL-E will start randomly applying elements of the style to things it comes in contact with

[dim cradle]

now it's similar to Anbo-Jyutsu from ST:TNG--the goal is to knock your opponent's anthropomorphic AI out of the ring.

[dim cradle]

baby elephant got in my flower garden

[empty kelp]

A hyper-realistic photo split into two equally sized views (named "View 1" and "View 2"), with a beach in Hawaii at night in both views. Both views focus on an elf (althletic, diverse, female, wearing a long dress, random capoeira attack pose). "View 1" looks directly at the front of the elf, and reveals detailed facial features and the full design of the ornate clothing. "View 2" looks directly at the back of the elf, and highlights the hairstyle from behind and intricate clothing details. There is a vortex resembling glowing ice crystals in the gown, twisting fiercely. The elf's pose and expression, and the color and texture of the elf and clothing is unchanged between views.

here i made two views, and said "The elf's pose and expression, and the color and texture of the elf and clothing is unchanged between views". So it kept her the same, but it made the vortex different in each view -- with different lighting, and the lighting from both sides was applied to the elf

This isn't what i was trying to do... i forgot to put the elf on the beach (so it would create two elves with front and back view) but this is another way you can mix things

if you don't say "keep the color and texture the same between views" it would give one side of her a fire theme, and one side an ice theme because with one elf it interprets looking at the "back of the elf" as "everything is opposite" -- which doesn't make sense, but that's how DALL-E interprets a front and back view of something when there is only one of them in the image. it reverses everything connected to the character/subject in the 2nd view (ice to fire, dark to light; etc.)

you can get the same effect with two elves if you tell it to look at the elf from the back, and you put the scene in the image instead of the two views. You can see here it flipped day and night in the 2nd frame.

but if you have the focus (the elf) and the scene in both frames it draws it correctly without reversing all of the elements -- and it actually shows the elf from a front and back view

[mortal wren]

Hi guys! I am quite now to the server, maybe I'll ask dumb stuff, so please don't roast me too much 😄

I am pretty sure people have asked this question here already, but why keeps DALL-E changing the whole image although I just ask it to be more precise on certain details?

E.g. "The face should stay the same, but with green eyes" - it goes ahead and changes the whole scenery as well as the position of the generated person and different other stuff.

How can I avoid that? Anyone who has had the same problem?

Thanks!

[plucky hare]

Hi, welcome! Great question. The main reason this happens is that, at a basic level, the model can only generate images "from scratch" each time, and it doesn't have direct visual awareness of the images it makes. In other words, txt2img models like DALL·E create images based on just the text they receive as input, so that's really all it's got to go off of, and that's why it can't follow cues like "keep x the same and change the rest" (because it can't "see" x in the first place).

There are some things that can improve this functionality, but aren't fully or reliably implemented currently. One is called "inpainting" which allows a user to select specific parts of an image they want changed (like the eyes), and then to re-prompt how they want the model to "fill in the blanks" of the selected area. This is not yet part of the DALL·E implementation on ChatGPT, but I have my fingers crossed that it'll be added someday! (There's also "outpainting" which is a similar idea but means "expanding" the image past its borders.)

Another thing that can help with character consistency is seed control. The "seed" is the number the model uses to make decisions, basically. So you have a prompt (e.g., "a red flower") and a seed (e.g., 374949372). Since the model can make a red flower in many different ways, the seed acts as its "decision-maker", basically saying "Make this type of red flower." Therefore, using the same seed across multiple prompts will make the model make similar "decisions", which can help with visual consistency. Seed control is also not an option on DALL·E on ChatGPT, but again, fingers crossed for some future implementation!

(Typing more than I thought! Part 2 incoming. Also sorry this is mostly an answer of "here's why it's not possible" but I think it's potentially helpful lingo to know if and when the features [or similar features] are implemented!)

(pt 2)

Finally, there is a parameter on ChatGPT's DALL·E called "referenced image ID" or "gen_ID" that basically refers to a unique ID of an image. Its current implementation is unclear, and it's not really a "feature," per se, but you can experiment with asking ChatGPT to give you the gen_IDs of the images it makes, and then reference that gen_ID in a followup prompt to say something like "Use gen_ID to create a version where the eyes are green." Your mileage may vary on this, as it's more of a backend implementation detail than a user feature, but some folks do report improved visual control using this method.

Some relevant posts for further info below. Again, either not currently implemented (seeds) or not implemented in a foolproof way (gen_IDs), but good info to know:

[dim cradle]

gotcha

then, it looks perfect.

[hot rain]

There are very slight edits that need done with the peppers and stuff in the bottom right section of the logo, but otherwise yeah I feel like it came out nearly perfect.

No question, by the end of the year with another advancement or two, this stuff is going to jeopardize smalltime graphic design jobs. There's just no way around it really, it's such a powerful tool now that it can do text competently some of the time. Once that becomes most of the time and smaller adjustments within an existing image using AI becomes a reality, it's a done deal really except for customers who are anti-AI extremists.

[dim cradle]

and ya know, having worked with graphic/logo designers over the years, i can't say i have any sympathy.

Trying to make a character with this description, but not much luck yet. Figured I'd drop it here to see if anyone else can get it to work. Basically they should look like earth elementals, but regular sentient beings.

"Crafted from the very rock of the Five Isles, a sediman's flesh and bones are made of stone, making them look like living, breathing statues. Their body parts are not joined by physical joints but rather open air, their limbs held together by an unseen magical force.

[empty kelp]

“A nuclear explosion in the shape of a beautiful, colorful bouquet of flowers.”

it works really well to say that the explosion is in the “shape of the bouquet”. it gives a delightful arrangement

[tall mason]

Good advice, much better than what I got. Of course, I posted that because the second image is an old picture that's been on the internet a long while. I was surprised to see the similarities without even prompting for that.

[empty kelp]

i described the colors separately and it automatically filled it in, “The explosion is vivid with bright colors like red, pink, blue, and yellow.”

it was exactly what you did, but i gave it the set of colors. it shaped the explosion, and then painted it

[tall mason]

You didn't ask for the tropical setting?

[empty kelp]

i did. it’s on the beach in Hawaii at night

i told it to make a “hyper realistic photo”

[tall mason]

That probably had an effect on things, as well.

[empty kelp]

i tried it with roses first, but the color was washed out. so i tried describing the color

[tall mason]

Neat. I wonder why Dall-e's so hyper focused on that one picture in this situation.

GPT is getting increasingly obsessive about throwing parts of my prompt into the image as text and I'm not a fan, and can't seem to get it to stop.

It's repeatedly messing up otherwise good images, and I'm not amused lol.

[dim cradle]

what's the prompt?

[tall mason]

Can't mention negatives to GPT, like "without any text."

[hot rain]

Make an image of a fantasy character that fits this description. Make it in a graphic novel or comic book art style.
Show the Sedimaan farming.

Crafted from the very rock of the Five Isles, a sediman's flesh and bones are made of stone, making them look like living, breathing statues. Their body parts are not joined by physical joints but rather open air, their limbs held together by an unseen magical force. Sedimen can have different appearances based on their rock of origin (granite, basalt, et cetera). They are average height, and have jewel like eyes.

The bottom chunk is straight from my friends 5e campaign, I know I could probably do with making it more prompt friendly, but I've put way bigger description blocks and not had this issue

[tall mason]

Is that what you're asking GPT for or the prompt as GPT gives it to Dall-e?

[dim cradle]

hmmm... gpt is augmenting in a strange way there... yeah, i think it's the way the prompt is structured. i do see that sometimes (rarely) and does require some rephrasing.

Copy both paragraphs into a gpt-3.5 convo and ask it to merge them into a 1-paragraph art prompt. that should sufficiently "repair" the prompt

[hot rain]

That's what I'm sending to GPT.

[tall mason]

The little info 'i' button when you open an image will show you the prompt as give to Dall-e. I would bet it includes something like "no text."

[hot rain]

I'll try that.
Any particular reason for 3.5 instead of 4? Just usage limit saving?

[hot rain]

Good to know

[dim cradle]

yup, 3.5 should perform the task just fine without taxing your quota

[hot rain]

Yup, sure as can be lol.

[plucky hare]

Yeah it saying "without any text" in the screenshot looks like negative prompting, which is what trees was saying doesn't work with DALL·E currently.

[tall mason]

Yeah, sadly, Dall-e doesn't understand negative prompting, and GPT doesn't understand that.

[dim cradle]

This is what it returns for me... maybe it'll help?

Create a captivating graphic novel or comic book-style illustration featuring a fantastical character known as a Sedimaan, portrayed amidst the backdrop of Sedimaan farming. These stone beings, hailing from the Five Isles, exhibit a remarkable appearance as their flesh and bones are composed entirely of rock, resembling living statues. In this unique world, their limbs are mysteriously held together by invisible magical forces rather than physical joints, and their distinct appearance varies depending on the type of rock they originate from, be it granite, basalt, or others. These average-height Sedimen possess mesmerizing jewel-like eyes, inviting you to envision the vibrant and enchanting world they inhabit as they engage in their farming activities.

[hot rain]

I didn't tell it without text prior.

Still slapping text on there even when I had GPT redo the prompt.

[tall mason]

So, when you ask for no text, GPT will specify no text, and Dall-e will make text just because the word was included in the prompt.

[plucky hare]

Sometimes it just happens, but negative prompting makes it happen even more often

[hot rain]

Using this prompt

[dim cradle]

hmm... did you start a new convo with the new prompt?

[hot rain]

Yes

[dim cradle]

might be some noise from... oh

[hot rain]

This is incredibly frustrating lol. It's happened to easily 9/10 of these pictures.

The text it sent to Dall.E

"Graphic novel or comic book-style illustration of a fantastical character known as a Sedimaan, engaged in farming. These stone beings from the Five Isles appear as living statues, with flesh and bones made of rock, like granite or basalt. Their limbs are held together by invisible magical forces, not physical joints, creating a unique appearance with body parts floating apart. They are of average height and have jewel-like eyes. The scene is vibrant and enchanting, showing the Sedimaan in their natural habitat, performing farming activities amidst a backdrop that reflects the rich and diverse world of the Five Isles."

[tall mason]

Yeah, depending on long the convo's gone on, it will pull previous requests in. It helps to start over in a fresh chat sometimes.

[hot rain]

I've done fresh chats three times now.

[dim cradle]

i'm seeing the same, and as i said, it's been rare, so this is weird

[tall mason]

I also wonder if maybe comic book-style throws it off a bit.

[dim cradle]

oh!

yes

that's it

[plucky hare]

Yeah since graphic novels have text on them!

[hot rain]

I've used comic book style a TON without this happening before.

[ripe wraith]

is it like, comics are for kids, they wont read the words anyways

[hot rain]

Now it won't stop happening.

[plucky hare]

I know Bing image creator went through a phase for a buddy of mine where it was hyper-text-ing everything, so it very well could be a backend tuning thing partially too!

Especially since the graphic novel style might already be more prone to it

[hot rain]

Like, it's never been a problem before.

[dim cradle]

yup, they may have made the model more steerable with those terms

[hot rain]

So my favorite art style has been effectively ruined for the time being until I figure out the magic prompt to remove text.

[plucky hare]

Everything is a work in progress! I'm sure you'll figure out a workaround, a new way to describe the style, and/or they'll continue to tune it! It's a very active beta 🙂

[dim cradle]

i had to remove graphic novel and comic-style both from the prompt to get the text bubbles removed. "Create a captivating illustration featuring a fantastical character" -- might need to clarify the type of illustration without using those terms exactly or a variation or i dunno, but that seems to be the culprit

[tall mason]

Looked at the file name here and can tell you from the beginning the difference. The first image's prompt starts with "Create a comic book panel..."

[dim cradle]

now i'm still seeing text even though i specified an illustration with bold lines and vibrant colors -- confusing

[hot rain]

I would think that'd make it more inclined to include text blocks, not less.

[dense mesa]

put the styles at the end of the prompt

[tall mason]

Donno. But if you can share the successful prompts, we might be able to figure things out.

[hot rain]

They're a few months old and hard to find, but the first was essentially

"Make an image of a blonde female soldier in a post-apocalypse on patrol. Show her wearing gray metal plated body armor and carrying an SMG. Make it in a graphic novel or comic book art style."

That's basically word for word, because I've used variations of that prompt a ton.

[dense mesa]

you're emphasizing the style too much putting the terms at the beginning

it becomes the focal point and it's primary goal is to replicate that style

[hot rain]

New chat, prompt without any art direction in the beginning.

is it tho?

[hot rain]

Here's the prompt GPT sent to Dall.E for this one that worked right. Again, these are months old. -

Graphic novel artwork of a blonde female character in a post-apocalyptic setting, taking a break in a trench. She is depicted wearing slightly damaged and dirty dark grey armor with metal plating, indicating recent combat or survival struggles. The armor is practical and rugged, tailored to the harsh conditions of the post-apocalyptic world. Her expression shows a mix of weariness and resilience. The trench setting is detailed, with signs of recent battles, such as scattered equipment and worn-down barricades. The background hints at a desolate, war-torn landscape, enhancing the atmosphere of a world in ruin.

[native ice]

...or not lol.

The prompt GPT gave DallE

"In a mystical world of the Five Isles, a Sedimaan, a unique creature resembling a living statue, works in a farming setting. This Sedimaan is made entirely of stone, such as granite or basalt, with no physical joints but limbs held together by invisible magic. The creature's average human height and mesmerizing jewel-like eyes stand out. The Sedimaan's skin texture varies based on the type of rock it's made of, adding to its distinct appearance. The farming scene is vibrant and enchanting, capturing the essence of the Sedimaan's world in a hand-drawn art style. This captivating illustration is entirely textless, focusing solely on the visual storytelling of this fantastical character and its environment."

Result:

In a mystical world of the Five Isles, a Sedimaan, a unique living statue made entirely of stone (granite or basalt), stands amidst a vibrant and enchanting farming scene. With invisible magic holding its limbs together, the Sedimaan's mesmerizing jewel-like eyes and stone texture, reflecting its rock type, add to its distinct appearance. This captivating hand-drawn illustration focuses solely on visually storytelling the fantastical character and its environment, free from any text.

It's something with the prompt, idk what it is but I just dropped it altogether and remade my own and now it's fine lol. Bizarre.

[grizzled iris]

That’s really peaceful good 👍🏽

[grizzled iris]

Reminds me of that marvel character

[grizzled iris]

The cool/ funny one

Korg that’s his name just remembered

“ Hello my name is korg and I’m a rock” 🪨😂

“I’m kinda like the leader here”

Cracks me up every time I watch that

[dim cradle]

the prompt as originally written described something more like a storm atronach from eso, but dall-e wasn't depicting that (visible magic holding the separated stones together)

Did you guys notice that the web search feature on ChatGPT is absolute trash compared to the web search feature inside of Copilot? It can't access certain pages, it glitches out sometimes it fails to search. Why is it so broken?

[hot rain]

Yeah, I gave up on it showing that lol.

Here's the prompt that worked for those images. Try adding details to them individually.

Textless comic book panel depicting a fantastical character resembling a living statue made of granite or basalt, engaged in farming. The character has limbs held together by invisible forces, creating the appearance of floating body parts.

[hot rain]

Total crapshoot at the moment getting that specific detail.

[dim cradle]

this thread is for discussing dall-e

[hot rain]

The Sedimaan king.

[dim cradle]

intimidating. i'd run.

[grizzled iris]

Yes we should keep discussing only Dall-e here only but I agree I use Bard for that stuff

Omg guys look

Prompt : Could you make a a rock like korg from marvel who gives free universal healthcare to all humans please?

😂😂😂😂😂

What is this 😂

[hot rain]

Lol that's great.

[dim cradle]

the people look so happy

[grizzled iris]

He’s a friendly rock

[tall mason]

How could you not be. Look at that first one.

[grizzled iris]

Taking your prompts inspiration @dim cradle

[grizzled iris]

Omg, they look even cool with your prompt style of inspiration @hot rain

Look

That’s quite a superhero

[hot rain]

I think the biggest thing triggering the text was the name of the species, Sedimen. I think having a name it didn't recognize for some reason triggered it into wanting to add it in as text no matter what measure was taken.

My new prompts use "Stone man"

Saw a bit of a squid face here and made this.
