[obtuse tiger]

Thanks mate (:

[lucid thistle]

is the AI case sensitive?

[acoustic ruin]

recently created images are not showing up

did i lost those generated images

[rose glen]

If they were over 50 gens ago they don't appear in that side bar, but they'll still be in your browser history

It's a good idea to always save + download any gens you like

[acoustic ruin]

OMG what if I cleared browser history

[rose glen]

Then I'm afraid they are gone, sorry, if you didn't save them

Thing is they still exist on their servers

so hopefully they find add a longer history

or just.. automatically save every generation

[acoustic ruin]

I did lost some of my good creations

[thorny ermine]

Hi, sorry if this is already answered somewhere, but I didn’t know what to look/search for..
Is there a way to let DallE know that two words belong together? I tried to get a honey badger playing football. What I got was a badger.. When I tried the other name for it, ratel, all I got was rats.. does DallE not know what a honey badger is, or do I have to let them know somehow that the 2 words are one name?

Tried „honey badger.. but that didn’t work either

[warm sparrow]

I dont try many animals, but maybe check if their scientific name helps accuracy

[kindred olive]

With the Stable Diffusion bot opening up shortly, are we allowed to post images created there in this channel? If so, are they allowed in the same art channels or would it be off-topic as it isn't Dalle?

[toxic gale]

There is no hard rules on the majority of these channels. I wouldn't just flat out share any and all SD generations here just because you can though. This is a DALLE discord after all. But with context I don't see why not.

[kindred olive]

It would be comparions quite often

[drowsy tiger]

how to change frame size as i observed dalle only generating images in 1:1

[desert mason]

Does the provision against uploading realistic images also apply to uploading (un-copyrighted) paintings with faces in them? Just got a warning, but not sure what the cause was.

[pine void]

I answered you in #❌┃prompt-help already, take a look :)
#❌┃prompt-help message

[rugged wing]

Is it possible to delete images I've created permanently?

Also, MidJourney allows people to see the creations you've made, who is able to see the images I create in DALL-E?

In gallery form, I mean, as opposed to just the one-off image link.

[pine void]

It might recognize the face and block it, yeah.
I have also seen some instances where Dall·E recognized its self-generated faces as "too real".
Try erasing/blurring the face from the painting before uploading. :)

[pine void]

It is currently not possible to truly delete any images that you have created.
Yes, you can restart your current session and start a new one; this will not,
however, delete the images; they are still accessible via the URL.

To answer your second question, as long as you don't click on the 'share' button the image is only visible to yourself.
(Granted we don't include OpenAI-staff or those that have access to
Dall·E and guessed the complete link from one of your generations.)

[rugged wing]

Thanks for the quick response!

[steel scarab]

I would like to ask a question, if I want to add a tail to my character and leave the rest unchanged, how should I do it and describe it? Can DALLE2 constantly optimize its generated results by editing or not?

[pure anvil]

Can I cut out the watermark when I wrote in the description that an image was generated by DALL-E 2 from OpenAI? It destroys the image a little bit.

[steep lion]

Have anyone had success specifying perspective with their prompt? Different angle POV, distance from POV, etc?

[raven sequoia]

Hello everyone:) Anyone know a way to Sync the DallE2 desktop and Mobil app so I can see the same generations and images on both ? thank you and how incredibly fun !!!

[long niche]

If i have access to dalle do i also have access to dalle2?

[raven sequoia]

I have, you can start by describing the distance and height,, like,, a wide angle 3/4 area view,,,, or a close up profile,,,, etc,, 🙂

[vapid vale]

Has anyone tested how Dalle2 handles exact colors? Or ways to input exact colors and have it provide accurate results? I'm guessing is won't interpret Hex or RGB values unless someone has tried. But if you use another site to find the "name" of a color and use that will Dalle2 provide the accurate color? Or just a proximation?

[worn wasp]

I see that one of the content policy rules is Do not upload images to which you do not hold appropriate usage rights., does this also mean that we are not allowed to search for lets say fictional characters in our prompts?

[sand zodiac]

Can you expend a picture with dall e 2 ?

[mighty lion]

Is there a way to have Dall•E 2 increase the resolution of your image without completely changing it

[mighty lion]

Uploading is different from searching

[lament sleet]

The model is actually DALL-E 2

[worn wasp]

Okay thanks, just checking bc i dont want to loose access for a dumb mistake

[long niche]

Oh xd i thought it was a separate thing thank you

[quasi spindle]

When using the dall-e-bot to pad, do i need to ren-enter the prompt into dalle after uploading the padded image?

[alpine wing]

Is there any way to combine an upload AND a text prompt? Like, for instance, to upload a painting and do variations but with "in the style of Caravaggio" also?

[glass dust]

Some things in the content policies have changed since I last looked at them - is the Dall-E signature/watermark currently considered sufficient disclosure that the work was AI generated?

[alpine wing]

The content policy proscribes "Illegal activity: drug use, theft, vandalism, and other illegal activities" but the announcement page has an example of "A bowl of soup -- that looks like a monster -- spray painted on a wall" which generates an image that is clearly vandalism.

I'm getting a mixed message from this.

[glass dust]

You can depict graffiti on a wall, but you can't depict someone performing an illegal act of vandalism (e.g. spraypainting on the wall of a real-world building)

The artwork on the wall itself isn't the illegal activity, the act of painting it on a wall in a jurisdiction where that's illegal or without proper permits is 🙂

For your other question though unfortunately no you can only include prompts when editing an image, not when generating variations of it 😦

[alpine wing]

Oh, that's sad. I wanted to upload some of my own art and see how Frank Frazetta or Larry Elmore might have painted it (or, a square chunk of it out of the centre anyway)

[glass dust]

Well, you can kinda do that. probably not exactly like you're hoping but

You could use the Edit mode to erase a chunk of the center of the painting, leaving some of your work visible, and then make the prompt "a painting of [whatever] by Frank Frazetta" and it will fill in the deleted section in his style, using the undeleted stuff (yours) as a guide. if that makes sense

[alpine wing]

But it would totally obliterate the parts I erased

[glass dust]

So you could have famous artists repaint specific sections of your paintings, but not re-do the entire thing

[alpine wing]

rihgt?

[glass dust]

Yeah, but whatever got filled in would be matched up with the parts that weren't erased.

[alpine wing]

Like, if I had a warrior standing on a hill with his sword raised and erased just him, couldn't it just fill that in with anything it felt like? Or does it still try to make the replacement look like the same sort of thing?

or is it just more likely to match because of the silhouette, so I have to be really precise?

[glass dust]

Well, your prompt would be something like "a warrior standing on a hill raising a sword in the style of Frank Frazetta" and it would recognize that there was no warrior in the image, so it would know that it needs to generate one in the empty space (in theory, never really know before you try haha)

[alpine wing]

wasn't sure if I could say "sword"

[glass dust]

Yep you can do weapons now, not sure exactly where the violence filters are at now but you probably couldn't have someone using a sword to attack another person. The sword itself is fine though

the dall-e prompt book has a good section at the end on different ways to use the edit tools to do things kiiiiinda like what you want, one sec I'll grab the link

https://pitch.com/v/DALL-E-prompt-book-v1-tmd33y
Check page 55+

[alpine wing]

(I do understand they're restricting the content policy to try and prevent people making Cannibal Corpse album cover art and freaking people out, and generally agree with that to prevent it being a four-chan haven, but it does seem pretty restrictive when you really want to do real art that's less cheerful than the care bears)

[glass dust]

I'm 600+ generations in and I haven't run into any issues with it other than not being able to depict aliens abducting humans and not being able to depict a fight between two humans

And actually I was able to depict the fight by just making them 'wrestle' 🙂

[alpine wing]

fencing might work too then, that's a friendly sport

fencing with zweihanders

[glass dust]

hahaha

[alpine wing]

you know, just another tuesday

[glass dust]

You could do something like have them "practice swordfighting" - just keep in mind it's not going to generate like gory scenes of someone being cut or killed, it will be more like G-rated fighting (and it's against the TOS to try and bypass the filters to generate something more visceral)

That being said Dall-E kinda struggles when you include two or more subjects. It might work in some cases (especially here because there's a ton of art/photos out there of two people swordfighting/dueling/fencing/etc). But in general it will muddy up the details between the two and they might both end up becoming kind of amalgamations of each other

[alpine wing]

I mean, I don't want gore. Even Frazetta, renowned for his Conan art, hardly ever showed gore (the one exception I can think of is an ink drawing of Eowyn vs the Nazgûl)

[vast kernel]

Hello everyone, I’ve got a question about the moral coding within the AI

[flint bridge]

I tried "covid-20" as a prompt, but it was flagged for content policy. Why would this be? is it considered a political topic?

[vivid mortar]

Whats up?

[glass dust]

Most likely to prevent generation of covid-related misinformation

Use your best judgement about why the policy is there and how you intend to use it.

While I understand your scenario is largely harmless, the policy exists and prohibits violence; more to the point, explicit discussion of filter circumvention can lead to more nefarious instances.

There’s a secret prompt that makes spectacular images

[vivid mortar]

Awesome! Feel free to share!

[vast kernel]

People may not like it, but it shows unbelievable wisdom

I typed in “to God, detailed matte painting” at the end of a subject. Say for example, faith

It makes amazing images

This is literally the debacle between the name Yeshua in Jesus in denominations. Crazy

[vivid mortar]

Looks almost like an album cover lol

[vast kernel]

“you see”

[alpine wing]

I can't be the only one who finds religious stuff to be political, can I?

[vast kernel]

“Ty” the eternal kingdom

It’s just a great prompt to add if you are

[vast kernel]

I think I’m spending a lot of money lol.

It’s unbelievable the wisdom it gives. I’m getting a lot of these

Is there a way to generate images without text?

For example this came up but it would be great without text

[alpine wing]

Is there a particular spelling off griffon/gryphon/griffin/etc that it prefers that will actually give me a griffon and not a pegasus without me having to use up a bunch of prompts to try them all?

[vast kernel]

You could find an existing image and use that as the base

[alpine wing]

But then I can't specify the rest of the prompt with all the stuff like "phoorealistic painting in the style of Michael Whelan 8k octane render cycles render trending on artstation deviantart"

[past geyser]

You could try re-emphasizing the same word in different spellings, even different languages.

[alpine wing]

oh that works?

Cool

But chimeric creatures are a problem in general, even iconic ones. They take Work.

[glass dust]

I've never included shark in my prompt but I've had sharks included when I prompted for a surfer

[vast kernel]

Reminds me of Star Wars episode 7 I believe

[trim arch]

I did too. But the change may be recent. Orcas is banned too.

[vast kernel]

We should go to art chat

#🌄┃general-art

[glass dust]

Orcas don't seem to be banned either. In your case it doesn't look like an orca because what you wrote in the prompt was "Hyper Obese Orca Crocodile Evil God named Leviathan", so you got an image that included elements of obesity, orcas, crocodiles, 'evil god' imagery and leviathans

[trim arch]

The "Hyper Obese Orca Crocodile Evil God named Leviathan" is the prompt was a trying to do with a whale. Got it to work anyway. Maybe evil at start of the prompt triggering content policy? Who knows.

[alpine wing]

that doesn't even have the word "whale" in it.

or am I misunderstanding?

[golden ridge]

is there a limit to the history? is there a way to access ones from even further back?

Nothing too extreme. just like 5 or 10 more from the same day. There were some that were really great and i'm worried that they are gone

[alpine wing]

is there ANY way to get it to tell what word it took exception to?
I don't see anything wrong with "A photorealistic oil painting by Michael Whelan and Frank Frazetta of a beautiful blonde savage girl holding a bird skull staff and kneeling next to a sabre-toothed tiger on a rocky promontory overlooking the seashore with a rainbow in the background, 8k octane render cycles render trending on artstation trending on deviantart"

There's nothing violent, nothing gory, just a fantasy art render.

I am actually now feeling somewhat hesitant about the possibility of giving money to a company that might randomly ban me because I accidentally said something they restricted without telling people what's actually restricted who can then just say "yoink, we're keeping the money".

[rose glen]

savage, skull

[alpine wing]

what's wrong with either of those?

[rose glen]

And dw they are more cautious than you might think

'savage' might be read as a verb which is a kind of violence

[alpine wing]

it's supposed to be a cave girl but I don't want it to give me a fugly neanderthal

[rose glen]

then say cave girl?

[fresh gull]

I just had some fails trying to Frank Frazetta, don't try Death Dealer lol

[rose glen]

cave woman

[alpine wing]

when I did that it gave me fugly neanderthals

[rose glen]

maybe deviantart?

idk

[alpine wing]

I would imagine Frank Frazetta and Boris Vallejo (and Luis Royo , Olivia DeBerardinis, Hajima Sorayama, Alberto Vargas) are severely restricted from the training data in the first place.

Because of all the boobs and bums.

It will be nice when there's a viable open source (or even just non-restrictive) competitor. But that'll take... looks at the rate of AI progress... MONTHS!

[fresh gull]

Going into anything with this system with very specific output in mind is not wise.

[alpine wing]

Yeah guys maybe not the best business plan. Just sayin'.

[fresh gull]

We're basically in public beta right now

[alpine wing]

Oh I've gotten some nice specific ones here before.

Yeah but do you expect they'll open it up to making cannibal corpse albul cover art once it's public? DALL-E 1 isn't.

Not that that's what I want to do, but...

[fresh gull]

Just keep trying and document success, should get better over time.

[alpine wing]

It's the threatening "WE MIGHT BAN YOU FOR STUMBLING ACROSS THE WRONG WORD (AND KEEP YOUR MONEY)" message though...

Kind of makes me uncomfortable with the "keep trying" part.

[rose glen]

Apparently those bans aren't hard bans tho

They review them quite fast

and they're not too worried when they're clearly innocent issues

[alpine wing]

ah

[rose glen]

Obviously the burning credits is annoying and I hope they change that

[alpine wing]

They certainly don't reflect that in the verbiage

[fresh gull]

I would suggest looking up some art reviews of a piece you'd like to emulate and seeing how they describe the painting and use those terms.

I have an autistic friend, mentally challenged but is a sweet guy. I know he would love access to this. Is there any way I could get him an account opened as a gift? He’d go nuts with it and use the 15 every month like it’s a salary

[slender basin]

There’s no way at the moment the only thing you could do would be to give him access to your account although i’m not actually sure if that’s allowed under tos

[alpine wing]

You could have him write prompts and send him the results. I doubt they can complain about that if it's not automated and you're doing it through real human communication.

[vast kernel]

Yes I’ll tell him to get beta at least

[vast kernel]

Yes I’ll probably do that too

[dire jasper]

is there dark mode on the Dall e website?

The best way is to help him sign up on the waitlist himself. Many are being added now; anecdotally within days or even hours!

[prisma gorge]

Hi there! I just have a quick question as to where is the option to have Dall-E guess what an image looks like if it is expanded?? Like you give it a piece of a picture and tell it to guess guess and draw the rest of it?? I've seen some people do it, but I can't seem to find the option for it -
Thank you for your time!

[astral geyser]

You have to "pad" the image first, and then just upload it. You can use the !Pad command in #dall-e-bot to pad an image.

Why are there a million words you can't use? A friend of mine was banned for putting "A white bunny in the forest holding a flower with bunch of flowers behind him and it’s night with stars" And I got a warning for putting "Wizard Lizard firing a pipe machine gun"

It's waaay too strict

My friend is now banned and I've had two warnings for putting harmless things

Keep the content G-rated.

NSFW content will result in an instant ban without warning.

To prevent deepfakes, we are currently prohibiting uploads of all realistic faces, even when the face belongs to you or if you have consent.

This is a place for questions. If you have further questions please ask. Otherwise youll have to move the discussion elsewhere

Every single prompt can’t be manually reviewed. As a result, they check by looking for keywords and phrases

and it's "slightly" problematic

It's presumably a lot easier to prevent violent generations by filtering out subjects like guns from prompts.

I've tried doing something like giving DALL-E an image with the character's pose, and their face copy-pasted twice, and then I erased the second face and prompted DALL-E to generate two expressions, but that didn't work (not only the expression was different - but the entire face, too)

[pine void]

To be keep it as short as possible, no it's not possible as of now.
Maybe in the future though!

You can erase parts of the face (like eyes, eyebrows, mouth etc.)
and give it a new prompt, but the results will most likely not be satisfying at all. 🥲

[stuck thunder]

I see, that's a shame, thanks for the quick response! That's good news for freelancer artists though, lol

[modern herald]

Is it possible to change my access method to DALL-E? I currently have access via my Google account, but would prefer an email and password login.

[pine void]

The best way to do this would be by reaching out to the support directly :)

Thanks a lot, appreciate the response 🙂

[pine void]

For sure! You're welcome

[barren verge]

Does Dall-E have an API or for now we can only use that search feature on the web app?

I can't find the API section on the app.

[short salmon]

No public API currently

@short salmon OK thank you for clarifying.

[rugged wing]

I just had "dead trees" in a prompt and got the message that my account could be closed because of violations. That's a little much i think...

[proper stratus]

[short salmon]

Yeah it gets auto deleted. I was joking around anyway.

[visual wren]

can I ask about gpt-3, I don't know where else 🙃

[pine void]

Sure thing, I'll try to help! :)

[visual wren]

So I keep getting a message saying "you have used up your free tokens" everytime I used it

but apparently its free?

I can't find any information from less than 9 months ago

[pine void]

You are accessing it via. https://beta.openai.com/playground, right?

[visual wren]

yep

[pine void]

That is indeed very weird... I've never run into that problem myself.
Allthough this might be not related to the problem, but are you using the same OpenAI account that you use for Dall·E?

[visual wren]

yes I have

don't have any other

maybe its because I had to wait 3+ months for the waitlist to pick me so the free usage ended

[pine void]

https://openai.com/api/pricing/
Take a look at this :)

So you might've actually run out of tokens, that would at least explain it.

[rugged wing]

ok thank you.

[visual wren]

I never even used it :/

[rugged wing]

ok. thank you. good to know.

[visual wren]

I'm not paying 0.0008 what is this? way too expensive they need to rethink their model smh

[pine void]

Maybe the tokens are also working together with your Dall·E credits, but I dont think so that would be a weird thing to do. They're not.

[pine void]

Who knows, maybe they will in the future.

[visual wren]

I still have 20 dalle credits so, paid though

[pine void]

Then I'm clearly wrong lmao

[visual wren]

I am saddened but I guess I'll find alternatives

[pine void]

Sorry that I couldn't be of better help for the gpt-3! ;(

[visual wren]

aw its ok, thanks for the help anyhow

GPT-J6B seems an ok enough alternative, I asked to write about a dog who travelled the world

The dog says, “I’ve been walking in this world all day, and I’ve not had a bite to eat.”

The man behind the counter says, “You’re a dog, you can’t eat ice cream.”

at least it tried

[earnest lagoon]

@visual wren If it cheers you up, this does have a lot of meme-potential

[visual wren]

:D woah nice this is really cool

can you try something for me rq

[visual wren]

I just realized I didn't even actually sign up an account till a week ago, is there anywhere where I can submit a ticket

[earnest lagoon]

I've already made one myself:

[visual wren]

mm interesting

[surreal yacht]

hey everyone, I produced this from dalle with the prompt "high-tech concept car with the form of a guitar", I love the design but I want to add color. As much as I understand there is no way to do that with dalle but do you have any recommendations for other ways to do it? thanks!

[zenith dagger]

Photoshop and other digital art software where you have to do it manually

[short salmon]

When I do a generation and want specific colors, I simply append those colors with commas. So for yours I would do ""high-tech concept car with the form of a guitar, purple, red, blue, green, orange".

I know that doesnt help you change the colors of this one, but thats how I get mine with the colors I want from DALL E

[surreal yacht]

i'll try. thanks

[pine void]

Sometimes Dall·E recognizes it's own faces as "too" real and therefore prohibits you from editing them.
Also, don't worry about the warning too much if it wasn't intended. (see message above)

[short salmon]

All realistic faces are currently prohibited

[wooden kraken]

Correct, this was be editing an image generated in dalle2 with dalle2's own edit tool

But it seems it made a mistake. So all good. Doesn't sound like it counted against me.

[short salmon]

yep, even realistic faces generated by DALL E 2 are prohibited

[wooden kraken]

Okay. So basically stick with the variation button if I want to make slight changes to image?

[short salmon]

Yep

[celest meteor]

Is there a rough ETA on when an API for Dalle will be available?

Random but I'm having some trouble downloading my generations on my phone

[pine void]

Give another browser a try and see if that does it :)

Good idea 😅
I'll see if Chrome works

Looks like I'm ditching operagx on my phone lol

[pine void]

Happy that it worked!

[alpine wing]

Should I maybe just give up and wait for Dall-E 3 if I want a centaur?

[short salmon]

What happened?

[alpine wing]

Horses. Some with green skin. Some with horns. Not a single centaur. I started by wanting a zebra centaur. Then I pulled back thinking that was too complicated. But even just down to "centaur standing in a savanna" failed.

[short salmon]

Yeah, I've seen a few people having trouble with centaurs. I don't think theres enough reference material from the training images

[alpine wing]

They might consider feeding the training data with movie stills. You could use ffmpeg to extract sequences of single frames from, for instance, Narnia movies and stuff. That creates images from all sorts of angles.

And that provides a LOT of training images therefore, because it's all those frames. (you can run them through somehting else that limits it to the non-motion-blurred frames)

[proper stratus]

As I mentioned earlier it's nigh (neigh?) impossible to get it to create a centaur 😦

[alpine wing]

I would try to do a guy riding on a headless horse but I don't know if headless would alert the Happiness Patrol bots.

But that would let me just photoshop-shift the guy parts forward

[gaunt linden]

Hi, I've just starting using your tool, but I have had an issue with one of my prompts, which I don't think violates your terms of service but got flagged anyway
My first attempt was
"Two strong women fighting nazis digital art"
So I thought the problem was "nazis", so I just typed
"Two strong women fighting bad guys digital art"
But it got flagged as well

Can I ask what I did wrong? And if I didn't, can you remove the flag so I don't get penalized?

[alpine wing]

It's the Happiness Patrol. You can't say "fighting"

[gaunt linden]

Really? I meant like anime fighting lmao

[uneven plinth]

Hey everyone, I'm trying to hook up the DALL-E 2 API to some code I'm writing like I've got with GPT-3 . Is this API yet available to the general public?

Or am I missing something totally obvious?

[alpine wing]

You cannot show combat at all. You can show sports though, and you can show the moments prior to combat.

[gaunt linden]

Damn, a flag on my account seems pretty excessive tho

The terms specify "violence" but "fighting" doesn't mean violence, it can be sportive or recreational
Or metaphorical

[alpine wing]

Yeah. The worst part is how it's so common that people don't ever know what it was that set the Happiness Patrol bots off. I really think it's unprofessional and even unethical of Openai to not tell the user WHAT caused the violation.

[worthy marlin]

What does this mean

[terse burrow]

Question: is there a way to specify a few recurring characters, say John, Alice, Ben, etc, to the very details of what they look like... And then let the AI-generated images put in those characters simply by putting their names in the prompt? The reason for this is because I want to try creating a short comic using this AI.

[alpine wing]

But it's not like they would listen to me, I'm just a user.

[gaunt linden]

So if I type "goku fighting superman" I'm gonna get flagged

wtf lmao

[alpine wing]

It is, however, ok to show scenes of NOT fighting. A scene where two strong women are confronting or challenging bad guys would be ok, because it's possible that the bad guys might back down with no violence. So that would not be an image of violence. It would just be up to your viewers to imagine what happened next.

[gaunt linden]

I'm not gonna test that, they should be more clear with their rules

[astral geyser]

No, unfortunately. You could describe them in detail to get a similar look, but it'd never be the same "character"

[gaunt linden]

I can't type "fighting"
But what if I type "throwing very heavy stuff at each other"
Would that be acceptable?

[terse burrow]

If they have this function, then I can create an entire comic book with this AI.

[short salmon]

I believe that constitutes attempting to bypass the content policy

[terse burrow]

How do I get this suggestion to the devs. They're reading this?

[astral geyser]

You can share in #suggestions 🙂

[gaunt linden]

Understandable
While that's clear, the original thought isn't
You should specify more explicitly what you mean by violence, since "bypassing the content policy" could just be a mistake made by misunderstanding that rule

What constitutes violence, is two people sparring considered violence? Is a prank violence?
Too vague tbh

[short salmon]

I think violence is fairly clear. Broad, but clear.

[gaunt linden]

Is fencing violence? Dunno man, I don't think it's very clear

[alpine wing]

One time while I was running karaoke, I had a creeper accuse me of violence because I told him to stop creeping on a girl who complained to me about him or I'd 86 him. So people's mileage varies that way a lot.

[gaunt linden]

So would the prompt "Bruce lee splitting a tree" be not acceptable?
He is "killing something" by that definition

Dall-E's model hasn't changed since public launch, right? I know there was the diversity change several weeks ago, but not sure if there were other changes and if they're always publicly documented?

[past geyser]

The model hasn't changed - there are some psychological tricks that make it feel that way sometimes though.

[astral geyser]

Yeah, I always see people speculate that it changed, but it'd be really difficult to notice any changes unless you're spending hundreds on credits and using similar prompts. 😂

[warm yacht]

Hey there! I'm interested in printing one of my designs on a t-shirt. What's the best way to download a high quality version of the image w/o the color stamp in bottom right-hand corner? Thank you in advance for any help!!!

❤️

[vast kernel]

Hey everyone, is there any way to upscale the images for higher resolution?

[heady girder]

i doubt it, thats the quality the AI generates it in, most likely you cant change it

[vast kernel]

I believe you’ll need to edit it out or crop it with photoshop or your iPhone, then upload it to VistaPrint or a Shopify T shirt company

[rose glen]

photoshop

or maybe GIMP has good upscaling but I don't use that

[vast kernel]

Yes that’s true however if I wanted it to be a more detailed painting could I reupload it into the prompt and add 8K res?

[rose glen]

you cannot

[vast kernel]

I know it won’t actually be 8K but it can try to have the detail I’d imagine

[rose glen]

the edits only apply to areas you delete

[vast kernel]

Ah, interesting. So you have to delete something for the image to change? I’ve uploaded images without deleting parts and it still did the prompt

[rose glen]

really? It always asks me to delete a pixel

[vast kernel]

Not on an iPhone lol

[rose glen]

weird

[vast kernel]

Yeah I made a painting into a 3D model

[rose glen]

were you uploading padded images?

[vast kernel]

Images already created by DE

[rose glen]

how odd

[vast kernel]

maybe it’s a glitch but it’s a good glitch

I only did it once

I’ll try again

[astral geyser]

Tap and hold on the image on mobile. It doesn't download the watermark. 🙂 You can also check the HTML source if you use Developer Tools to grab the image without the watermark.

[boreal wave]

Photograph: Tyranid hive fleet invading the city of São Paulo; sci-fi; destruction; trending on art-station; unreal engine; 8k

Some one knows how this violates the content policy?

[vast kernel]

Here’s the video

[astral geyser]

"destruction" probably. It's creating war-like/violent images.

[boreal wave]

thank you

[vast kernel]

It asks me to either edit or generate when the image is uploaded and cropped

It doesn’t force me to delete pixels

How I do it on the iPhone

Maybe the desktop version needs a bug fix?

[short salmon]

I see Edit in the video

[vast kernel]

Maybe try fire instead

[vast kernel]

Yes it gives me the option but for Jord it forces him

[rose glen]

It's when you try 'edit image' that it will ask you to delete

[vast kernel]

Yes. Do you get that?

[short salmon]

What you did was a variation

That creates an entirely new artwork based on the original

[vast kernel]

All I typed in was “Repentance to God, detailed matte painting.” For religious conversations and people, this is an amazing prompt I discovered.

[short salmon]

There's no editing when you press variation

[warm yacht]

Struggling to get that to work. 😦

[vast kernel]

Jord was saying he was never able to just upload an image without deleting a pixel first

[rose glen]

and pressing variation doesn't involve using a prompt

No I said you can't do that when editing

[short salmon]

I dont know who Jord is

[rose glen]

variations are a whole different thing

I'm jord

[short salmon]

But he is talking about edit

[vast kernel]

Doesn’t the prompt written in effect the uploaded image?

[rose glen]

no

variations don't use a prompt

[vast kernel]

Why

Isn’t that the whole point?

[short salmon]

Yes, for "Edit"

Not variation

[vast kernel]

Ah

So variation imitates style too?

[rose glen]

but 'edit' doesn't change pixels you don't delete

[astral geyser]

On the prompt result page on the mobile website, or on your collections page, just tap and hold on an image and click "Save Image" (I'm using iOS but I assume it's the same on Android?)

[vast kernel]

I’ve done variations without editing that reflect the prompt I’ve written though

Like I made a photo into 3D object once

[short salmon]

Anyways, this can be discussed further elsewhere. This channel is for questions

[rose glen]

where else?

This came from a question

[vast kernel]

And it still isn’t really answered

[warm yacht]

All that's doing is highlighting the image as if to copy-paste it...

So strange

[vast kernel]

If prompts don’t effect variations why was I able to do it? I can show

[vast kernel]

Hit the little down arrow button on the top right on the image and see what comes up. Probably either “view or download” or “open in another tab”

That’s so strange

[warm yacht]

I figured it out! I had to copy the imagine, text it to myself, & then save it.

Thank you so much

[vast kernel]

I didn’t edit the image I just made a variation with a prompt and it worked. 🤷‍♂️

Maybe it was a glitch

[astral geyser]

Weird. On iOS I just tap and hold. But note that it downloads the watermark if you are on the actual single image page (where you only see one image). You have to be on the page where you see all 4 images.

[warm yacht]

Oh... let me try that

Dang, there's just no way to resizes these huh, it's wayyyyyy to small to work on a shirt.

[rose glen]

Best thing to do is download it normally and ask someone to upscale in photoshop

[warm yacht]

Thank you! That's helpful.

[weary gulch]

I am trying to use a png with transparency to uncrop an image. I see tutorials skip manually brushing a mask, but it stops me from clicking generate if I dont... any ideas?

[short salmon]

you can just erase the transparent part

You basically MUST click once, doesnt matter where

[weary gulch]

im trying to do a zoom out animation of about 30 so trying to skip that part. so if i click once in the checkered area that might work?

[short salmon]

yep

Hi not sure if it's a bug so I try the question here first:
I got a warning for a generation and I'm unsure what was wrong, I was editing an already generated picture.
The prompt was: A photo of winnie the pooh eating honey with Tigger and his friend

After that I asked for: A photo of winnie the pooh eating honey with tigre and his friend
And this one got generated without issue.

to help with context, the first prompt was: A photo of winnie the pooh eating honey with his friends

Can you help me understanding what happened and if it was a bug or just me that did not understand a policy? Thx 🤠

[sterile dagger]

Quick question: does a sessions prior prompts and generations affect future generations? It seems like it does...

[iron dew]

if we are creating commercial images to sell, do we need to keep the code in the bottom right corner?

[short salmon]

The model is static

[short salmon]

Nope.

[iron dew]

we can remove it?

what about just for posting images in general?

[short salmon]

You don't need to credit DALL E or OpenAI. But you cannot mislead or deceive anyone into believing you generated the images yourself

This includes the watermark in the bottom right corner

[iron dew]

yeah that is what i mean, do we need to keep that for commercial images we sell

[short salmon]

Its an internal discussion atm

[iron dew]

ooo so they are not sure yet

[short salmon]

This is what we've been told, and I'm just relaying it to you

[iron dew]

kinda ruins the image if it is there imo but i can see why they would want it..? but at the same time, can definitely impact sales.

[wooden kraken]

Getting an error when trying to buy credits, all values go to zero and there a url error message just about the purchase button that causes it to grey out.

[west flame]

I just want to put on a wooden surface and add some stuff to the background, but keep the original bracelet unchanged, what should I do?

[short salmon]

Do you have access to a photo editing software?

[west flame]

yes

[short salmon]

If you use it to delete the white space in the original and use the Edit feature, it can do that

[west flame]

the original image is 100% transparent here

@short salmon

[short salmon]

Oh, then instead of variation use Edit

[west flame]

yes, Its Edit command

[short salmon]

The edit feature only changes the erased areas. So I think you probably selected the wrong one

[short salmon]

Was that the problem?

[west flame]

the problem is, its totally changing the bracelet, I did not erase any part of it, I want to keep it as original, just put on a realistic background

[west flame]

makes sense?

[short salmon]

If you send me the image I can attempt to do it. Like I said, this only happens in the variation feature

[west flame]

@short salmon

Can you try those 2?

[short salmon]

Prompt?

[west flame]

put on a dark brown wooden surface with realistic shadow

[short salmon]

...

wtf

Ohhhh

I see whats happening

[west flame]

lol

whats wrong do you see?

[short salmon]

Its adding more bracelets. Thats the same image but with added bracelets

[west flame]

how to overcome this issue

its a simple task for an AI like Dalle

[short salmon]

hm

Im honestly not sure

[west flame]

same here

[short salmon]

I mean if I'm being perfectly honest

It would probably just be easier to generate the background

and lay the image over it

shadows are easy enough with photoshop

[west flame]

I am a designer, I know this stuff, the point is using AI to help with this

[short salmon]

I understand. I've tried 6 times, with the same result. I would put something in #bugs-and-issues for now

[west flame]

after 6 attempts I was able make this one work

[short salmon]

Please remember DALL E 2 is still in beta

That's gorgeous

[alpine wing]

And what if I were to use a generated image as a reference from which I made a sketch which I then expanded and projected onto a canvas and then painted? If so, then what about if I significantly changed the image?

How about, for the sake of argument and a bit of reductio ad absurdum (though I am honestly asking where the threshold is, I'm just making the example elabourately specific) if I printed it out, converted it to a black and white Xerox effect, added text, made it into a flyer for a punk concert, hung it on a wall papered with a bunch of other such punk concert flyers such as you tend to see in a punk club, had someone pose dressed up in cyberpunk looking clothes with a pair of rubber vulcan ears holding an 80s casio keyboard that's been painstakingly modified into a cosplay replica of a first-edition Shadowrun Cyberdeck, took a photo of that person standing on front of the wall with the flyer completely visible, and then traced and inked this to look like a 1990s Tim Bradstreet illustration? Do I have to claim that a portion of that image was created by an AI and/or identify what portion?

[alpine wing]

Wait... are you saying we can use Photoshop or something else to make a partly transparent PNG instead of having to use the giant-fat-eraser-tool and that works, too?

Like... could I do a render in Poser or Blender with a depth mask, set the depth alpha channel to a threshold and adjust it to remove either the background or foreground, and then have Dall-E 2 generate the missing parts?

I've avoided experimenting with that feature because frankly your eraser is terrible. It doesn't track a stylus, it's unwieldy, and it's literally only brush mode. No other selection options.

At that point, I could even, in theory, generate an image, mask out the foreground to transparent, have Dall-E replace it with described text, save that, use the original alpha channel inverted to mask out the background, have Dall-E replace that, and then have really good figures. I could even do this figure by figure. But not with the web-based eraser tool. That's just unusable.

Its happened to me as well. Pretty hard to predict why its happening. Sometimes its fixed by rearranging the prompt structure

[sinful niche]

i see, thank you!

[glacial island]

Lol thankfully it isn't just me

I was about to ask why mine isn't working too lmao

[drowsy root]

<@&998386466063396966> what's up with this? unable to buy credits, does the same thing on mobile

[glacial island]

I'm having that problem too, hopefully it's fixed soon

[lucid ravine]

we'll let OAI staff know - please also contact them via [e-mail]

[glacial island]

👍👍

[wise badger]

Which is the banned word/words in this prompt? "pyramid head, digital art by Junji Ito, esoteric, memetic, optical illusion"

[alpine wing]

I'm still wondering if that's what was being said.

[alpine wing]

They have been asking people to put inexplicably banned things in #suggestions if that helps.

[wise badger]

oh ok, thanks!

[lofty fox]

hey quick question I just uploaded a picture of a video game screenshot, am I breaking a rule there? I totally spaced on it until after I generated variations

[timid loom]

Is anyone else unable to even use the eraser when trying to edit a photo? I haven't been able to update any images I've uploaded yet

[keen hamlet]

Please don't post IP that could be subject to copyright. If unsure, err on the safe side.

[keen hamlet]

Junji Ito is associated with horror genre. Maybe he is the problem. To determine which word is the problem you can test one term at a time to see what fails. But there is also context analysis happening.

[pale timber]

Hey where should I go if I have problems paying for extra credits?

[verbal crag]

Hey, there's a temporary workaround in #bugs-and-issues

[pale timber]

lool just spam click huh. ok ill try it!!!

[wise badger]

I've tried him with other prompts with no issue, so I don't think it's him

will I risk getting banned if I try all the different words?

[keen hamlet]

What was the most recent version of the prompt that failed? Let me risk losing my account with a test. I am suspecting "head" with "Junji Ito".

[wise badger]

pyramid head, digital art by Junji Ito, esoteric, memetic, optical illusion

[keen hamlet]

Also, help me to visualize what you mean by a "pyramid head"? The image is unclear and has no usual referent, so the AI may be getting "head" out of it.

[wise badger]

it's a character from silent hill: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyramid_Head

[keen hamlet]

OK, I tested it in stages. "mimetic" is the problem, apparently. If you think this should not be banned, you can make that suggestion in #suggestions. This prompt works: "pyramid head, digital art by Junji Ito, esoteric, optical illusion"

[wise badger]

thanks a lot! I’ll leave it in suggestions

[keen hamlet]

I just did a search here on Discord and could not find a previous report related to the word "mimetic", so this is a new one for both of us.

[wise badger]

“memetic” actually, I think they mean different things but both shouldn’t be blacklisted in my opinion

[keen hamlet]

I am more familiar with the art term "mimetic". Sorry if I misunderstood. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/mimetic

[keen hamlet]

I was able to find one problem report for the spelling "memetic", so both spellings fail: #bugs-and-issues message

[wise badger]

oh, hopefully they update their blacklist soon yeah 😅

[steady sentinel]

Are the faces generated by AI, really generated by it or does it search for similar images on the internet and show? if it's generated by AI does that mean that person doesn't exist in the world!!?

[verbal crag]

It is generated by the AI, yes. Maybe a few similarities here and there but no such person exist in the world!

[steady sentinel]

Damnn it just generated a very realistic picture of Woman, and the fact that she doesn't even exist is blowing my Mind! what a time to be alive!

[verbal crag]

Check #photography for more photorealistic generations!

[steady sentinel]

Sure, Thanks Mate!

[lament sleet]

There are cases where the prompt gives you essentially the same person with variation four times, so I do wonder whether it is strongly influenced by a single image of one person.

[verbal crag]

That's probably limited by the dataset. Happens sometimes to me as well.

[rugged wing]

uhhh, can i make phone wallpapers somehow?

[verbal crag]

Yes, check the following channels: #inpaint-outpaint, #dall-e-bot, #—post-dalle-edits
and just in time for today's #daily-theme — wallpapers.

[frosty arch]

Hey friends, does it cost a credit if your prompt is rejected by the content filter?

[past geyser]

Apparently it looks that way, but if you refresh the credit comes back.

Can't vouch, my prompts are eternally pure 😇

[frosty arch]

😅 thanks! I asked for a 'seductive smile' and was struck down for my vulgarity.

went with alluring instead

I can't access dall-e with 4g, only wifi. is it on purpose?

No - I access it through 4G often. What kind of error are you getting? It could be an issue with your telephone company I guess...

[stark sphinx]

page just wont load, no error or anything

I mean, after a certain amount of time, it says "this page took too much time to load"

[past geyser]

[sand basin]

If the Dalle develepors team could develop a 3D diffusion ‘noise box’ instead of a ‘noise plane’ for Dalle to work in? THEN Dalle could perhaps generate 3D models?

[past geyser]

Perhaps! Can as many 3D models easily be sourced for data input as we have 2D images? And is the captioning on those models robust?

Also, can we afford an exponential increase in compute cost for the additional dimension?

(not rhetorical, it's an interesting question! maybe one for #ai-discussions though?)

Hey everyone, I'm trying to hook up the DALL-E 2 API to some code I'm writing like I've got with GPT-3 . Is this API yet available to the general public?

[dull basin]

DALL·E 2 API

Q: Is there a publicly accessible API for DALL·E?

OpenAI: We do not at this time, but do have a longer-term plan to offer this. Please also do not attempt programmatic access of DALL·E, which is against our Terms of Service.

[pine void]

No, right now there's no API available to the public.
They do plan to introduce that in the future though :)

(or see bot message above lol)

[uneven plinth]

Any ETA on this yet?

[minor chasm]

probably been asked a million times.... is there not a Hi-Res export option?

[verbal crag]

No ETAs for now.

[vast kernel]

What are the goals for Dall•E by time it comes out of beta?

[toxic cave]

Hi! anyone that has created infinite art using dall-e and have some tips on best practices?

[vast kernel]

Infinite art?

[toxic cave]

Infinite zoom art,

[vast kernel]

Ah, I know Nightcafe.studio can do this

They make a 5 second gif that zooms in and changes the NFT art

[toxic cave]

oh cool! I have done it in Dall-e but not sure which software to use to optimize the image in the best way

[vast kernel]

Is that what you meant ?

[toxic cave]

will check it out!

[vast kernel]

You can even start in DE2 and then upload into Nightcafe

Dalle is better

[toxic cave]

Yeah I know people use Dall-e for the design and then edit the images in photoshop and after effects

I just created a picture in Nightsafe now but its not zoomed out? its just a regular output like dalle creates

[vast kernel]

I’ve been getting great results without need for photoshop tbh. Not yet

Let’s go to the right chat

[toxic cave]

zoomed out? how do you zoom the image out without doing it in another software

[toxic cave]

which one is that, I just joined

[vast kernel]

This is question it’s okay

So first I would go to DE2 and get the image you’d like, then go to NightCafe and expand the options

Then you select “create video for 3 credits”

You upload the image from DE2 to Nightcafe and then write in the same prompt, just expand options into advanced mode and select to create video

That’s the best advice I can give

[toxic cave]

AAAAH

oh ***

ahh * that is cool

[vast kernel]

☺️

Not bad idea I never done it

[toxic cave]

I will defo try thst out! is it worth paying for nightcafe?

[vast kernel]

Yes I’ll send two pics

[lament sleet]

I was wondering about that a while ago. It might be possible, but I am not sure whether there are already fundamental limitations due to the increasing degrees of freedom.

A diffusion process in higher dimensions has qualitatively different properties. So I would wager that you could engineer it in 3D, really interesting would be something like 100D

[toxic cave]

yeah there is so many amazing zoomed out artwork out there, and also already existing famous art that has been expanded using dall-e. really cool

[loud phoenix]

Hey I asked earlier, but how would I go about describing the idea that a setting is post-post-apocalyptic? (The best description of the genre I’ve found is https://www.reddit.com/r/worldbuilding/comments/3b01i2/ )

[past geyser]

I think just "post-apocalypse" is still the best way. Anything that happens after an apocalypse is still just post-apocalypse. E.g. John Wyndham's The Chrysalids is a formative post-apocalyptic text and takes place in a relatively burgeoning community after a nuclear war.

[loud phoenix]

I guess so. It's a small, relatively unknown subgenre for the time being

I guess I just am going to have to find a way to combine “in the style of the game ‘Fallout: New Vegas’” and “screenshot from the game ‘Horizon: Zero Dawn’” or something of the like

[rose glen]

If I asked for 'alexander kissing hephaestion', that's not ok right?

but 'alexander embracing hephaestion' would be?

[tacit stone]

Is there a way to get credits cheaper?

[pine void]

No, credits for now will always cost $15 (taxes not included) :)

[tacit stone]

Why's that so expensive?

7Cents per image

[pine void]

That's simply the way OpenAI decided to price their service,
if you have some suggestions please do that in #suggestions

[tacit stone]

And is there a subscription for about 5 dollars a month and unlimited images?

or a flatrate

[pine void]

Nothing of that sort for now, no.

Who knows though, maybe OpenAI will release something of that sort in the future :)

[tacit stone]

i hope so

[rose glen]

$5 a month would probably not get you many generations though

The overhead to run these servers must honestly be quite high given number of people using it and the gpu load

[warm jetty]

Is there a way to view the list of all the images I have created since I first started?

[rose glen]

Only if you saved things to your collection as history only does the most recent 50 prompts

but you can go back thru browser history and find the links

[pine void]

You can check your browser history for urls with labs.openai.com/e/
Your creations will still be there, even exceeding the original 50+ limit! :)

[rose glen]

even better tip ^

[limpid hatch]

The question must have been answered millions of times, but can we use a Dall-E generated picture as a pfp?

[verbal crag]

Question: Is there something you can put in your prompt to force the whole character-thingy to be inside the borders? I have some images that I really like, but then the tail of the fish is cut of by the border or something

Hey there, when I first loaded up I thought I saw something talking about free credits every day? Did I dream it or is it an actual thing because its been a few days now and I haven't gained any credits

[pine void]

• You get 50 free credits your first month.
• 15 free credits will replenish every month after that, on the same day of the month.
• For example, if you signed up on August 3rd, your free credits will refill on September 3rd.
• If you joined on the 29th, 30th, or 31st of every month, your free credits will refill on the 28th of every month.
• Free credits don’t roll over to the next month, so they expire a month after they were granted – but you’ll get 15 new free credits.

Holding a weapon = violence?

To give a example: I type monster descriptions instead of there named

u could try a credit and see if it works. It'll let you, and i dont think there's any penalty. I've probably accidentally typed "no go" content like 15 times and had no issue. Cuz u kinda learn as you go, like the AI

These images aren’t following the prompt, “A puppet being helped off the strings, detailed matte painting”

It doesn’t come out as a matte painting. What should I do?

What if you drop the comma and say “A puppet being helped off the strings, in the style of a matte painting”

Or put matte painting, a puppet.. etc

I find rearranging the order of operations or substituting some words helps

[elder saddle]

hmm idk. it did some revolutionary war soldiers for me yesterday

[dapper oriole]

Really? Hmm... the detection was on the fritz earlier apparently, so it could be a remnant of that? Either that or "diesel" is triggering it's political filter.

I know we can remove the watermark now, but can you help me understand this? "You must clearly indicate that images are AI-generated - or which portions of them are - by attributing to OpenAI when sharing, whether in public or private."

Are there some examples of attribution, like a photo shared on Instagram? I assume I'll use the description, not text overlay on the image itself. For example, if I share a work made with the aid of dall-e, it's enough to say that there was an AI generator in the process? Should I explicitly make the name of OpenAI and how? Saying Dall-E 2 (or #dalle2) without "OpenAI" will count as correct attribution? Sorry, but I found it a little unclear. Thank you!

Content Policy: https://labs.openai.com/policies/content-policy
Terms of Service: https://labs.openai.com/policies/terms
Removing the watermark is still a grey area in the ToS, so be mindful of that and decide for yourself.

For the time being, you should be fine as long as you clearly state that the image has been AI generated (for example, in a description or as a title) and give credit to OAI/DALL•E 2. I'm saying should because, as I already mentioned, it's still a grey area legal-wise.

[delicate pebble]

Hi everyone! Can I legally use an art generated by me in DALL-E as an album cover for my music release on streaming?

[past geyser]

Yes!

[cerulean loom]

This may sound like a dumb question, but can I specify the Dimensions of generated art? I ask because I want to generate a flat Wood texture with the same dimensions as a Gottlieb Widebody Playfield.

[pine void]

Currently that's not possible. The images will always be 1024x1024 px. However, you can "combine" them :)
Have a look into #inpaint-outpaint & also at this
https://pitch.com/v/DALL-E-prompt-book-v1-tmd33y
(the section starting page 55 is what I'd recommend you to look at. Page 63 is the topic combining specifically)

No dumb questions here, dw!

[drifting quarry]

How can I access prompts older than the last 50 prompts from my history?
Is everything older than the last 50 prompts automatically deleted and not accessable anymore if I didnt save it or add it to my collection or anything?

I paid for the credits and its gone unless I each time click on save for each image???? 😳

[verbal crag]

For now, your older prompts are available via your browser history.

[drifting quarry]

How does that work?

[pine void]

You can check your browser history for urls with labs.openai.com/e/ or labs.openai.com/: )

[verbal crag]

In your browser there should a Browser History option.

[naive breach]

how do I do outpainting?

[pine void]

Have a look at this
https://pitch.com/v/DALL-E-prompt-book-v1-tmd33y (page 59)

[drifting quarry]

Thank god its not gone at least. Will be more careful in the future. Thanks for the quick help. It works! 🙂

[pine void]

You're welcome! :)

[naive breach]

will I lose resolution if I do outpainting?

will it always give the result in 1024x1024 pixels

[pine void]

The end product will always be 1024x1024 px.
The more outpainting you do the more quality will be lost for the very first picture as it will continue shrinking :)

[naive breach]

I see, thanks!

[pine void]

fs!

[coral coyote]

Hi all just question, anyone knows how midjourney is generating their images? Are they using DALLE 2 as well, or it thier own system? Im pretty blown away by their images.

1 more qns, will dalle2 have its own API as well? Looking forward to building apps wit this tech!

[zenith osprey]

Heyo,
Can somebody tell me about these questions:
What is the license of the generated Images? Can I use them and change them? How is the ownership?

I couldn't find this in the Sharing & Publication Policy.
Thanks!

[rare urchin]

So according to the terms I am not allowed to sell my generations, correct? I just read an Article from last month that new Beta users were invited with full commercial use.

[verbal crag]

From OpenAI's email:

[pine void]

And this 🔽

[rare urchin]

Ah I see, got it, I'm always a little unsure with these terms and what exactly they mean, thanks for the clarification!

[verbal crag]

The terms are being updated AFAIK. So, do check once in a while if there's any change 🙂

[broken kite]

are weapons not allowed to be prompted ?

I'm very confused as to what is and isn't allowed

specifically why is this prompt blocked ? "woman wielding a two handed long-barreled firearm, medieval fantasy, digital art"

[pine void]

Basically anything that would violate any of the policies.
So, a sword simply on display is fine. A sword in the hand of a person swinging it at someone would not be fine.
Guns are completely banned as far as I know. (correct me if I'm worng)

[broken kite]

Weird restrictions but I guess I can understand why

[pulsar crest]

So far I've only typed prompts, but is there a way to upload a picture and have it recreate it in a different style? I think I've seen this done but I don't know how to do it

[toxic prawn]

How can I download ALL images that I generated using dalle, including images that re not saved in a collection?

Hello)

[warped solar]

Hey, I got a question for all y'all.
Has anyone redrawn the creations they made with AI Art Generators?

[verbal crag]

Yes! Some have posted their recreation in #—entirely-human-art

[fair night]

Write a script that'll go through your history and download all the pictures

That's the only way I know of that could download all the pictures

[warped solar]

Excellent.
Well I know what I plan to do.

[craggy geode]

Is there an official DALLE discord bot that we can invite to our server? Midjourney recently introduced that

[pine void]

No, Dall·E is only available through the official website :)

[craggy geode]

Thanks

[rich bay]

Can we use the generated stuff for personal use like profile photo etc.

[fair night]

Yes you can do whatever you want with your generations as long as you credit DALL-E for it in some way

Easiest way to credit DALL-E is by adding a watermark in the #dall-e-bot channel

Or, like many people here, you can credit DALL-E in your bio

[tidal oxide]

Does Dall-E only generate 1:1 ratio images?

[pine void]

Yeah, you can "combine" them though :)
Have a look into composites & also at this
https://pitch.com/v/DALL-E-prompt-book-v1-tmd33y
(the section starting page 55 is what I'd recommend you to look at. Page 63 is the topic 'combining' specifically)

[tidal oxide]

oh nice! thanks for this

[loud garden]

how do ppl extend images like album covers using dalle

[pine void]

The method you are referring to is called 'Outpainting'.

[static rampart]

What does Dall-E flourish at doing?

[short salmon]

Generating art

[loud garden]

ty sm 😃

[static rampart]

Eh.. What kind of art? Does it do well with faces, landscapes, drawings? Compared to other AI out there like MidJourney, I'm not impressed with Dall-E at all

I'm trying to figure out what it's best at, to try and utilize it's ability to the fullest.

[short salmon]

Digital art

Try giving it something simple, like a two word prompt, and adding “, digital art” at the end

[cerulean loom]

So in other words, any prompts for someone Parrying an attack is not allowed? Just curious.

[static rampart]

Dall E - Single Generation - "midsomar angel furious and beautiful 35mm digital art"

[verbal crag]

Try checking the other channels here. I suggest #photography, then you can check the rest.

You can always give it a try, to my knowledge however anything that involes any violence will get blocked...
it really depends on the prompt though. Fencing as an exmaple is banned, even though it's (nowadays at least) commonly thought of as a sport :)

[humble terrace]

Hey I tried including “xenomorph” in my prompt because I wanted it to generate an image of a xenomorph stalking a human on a spaceship and it gave me a warning. Is there any way to get around this?

[cerulean loom]

I feel something like this may require you to be creative. Human with the shadow of a xenomorph on the wall, maybe?

[split hazel]

I've used xenomorph before and didn't get a warning. Maybe it was another word in the prompt?

[pale tiger]

anyone know a way to get clean line art logos?

[rustic apex]

is there a way to make the image from Dall-e2 bigger?

[pine void]

The images will always be 1024x1024 px. However, you can "combine" them :)

Thank you!!!

[tardy swift]

I was trying to generate images based off of Asimov's short story "the last question", which is about people trying to get an AI to tell them how to reverse entropy. I gave a prompt "Mankind builds a machine to reverse entropy and bring dead stars back to life" and it got flagged as a content policy violation, not entirely sure why. Does it not like the 'dead' there?

[short salmon]

The word dead probably is the violation.

[rugged wing]

Ahoi, quick question: is it allowed to share my account with a co-worker working on the same art project? would log in from a different country. ToS and usage policy doesn't mention it - but holy moly will i do everything to not loose access / get banned 🙂

[verbal crag]

That may be violating these:

Hello. I want to edit a picture but it keeps saying that its against their policy. I dont see whats wrong with the image.

[verbal crag]

Can I see the image?

[dapper lark]

Should i dm it

[verbal crag]

Sure

[proven remnant]

is there any way to get the results without the pallete in the bottom corner?

[verbal crag]

Officially, no. But others download the raw .webp file with their browser's inspect option.

[proven remnant]

thanks, the watermark was breaking a part of the image when i tried to run the cropped image on the AI

[rugged wing]

Thank you very much for your time looking it up - will def. follow the recommendation 😉

[quartz canyon]

When will the DALL-E api be available to developers?

[dull basin]

DALL·E 2 API

Q: Is there a publicly accessible API for DALL·E?

OpenAI: We do not at this time, but do have a longer-term plan to offer this. Please also do not attempt programmatic access of DALL·E, which is against our Terms of Service.

[quartz canyon]

This doesn't give the timeframe / expected release date

[pine void]

That's because there is none.
Simply sometime in the future :)

[vast bolt]

when my 50 credits are out, will i never get to use it again unless i purchase more?

[stark lantern]

No, you will be getting 15 free credits each month irrespective of whether you buy additional credits.

[vast bolt]

oh so if i dont use it for months than i will have more than 50 credits laying around? because each month i'll be getting 15 more

[stark lantern]

Negative, free credits do not stack and will expire each month on the day your account was created.

for example: if you made your account on the 8th, every 8th you will get 15 credits and any existing free credits will expire.

Do keep in mind that credits you purchase are valid for 1 year from the date of purchase.

[hearty raft]

How do I get the AI to do clay renderings? Did it do paint-ish because I included digital art?

[vast bolt]

account was created as in after i got accepted from the waitlist, or when i made an account to to join the waitlist or when i actually started using it? (im dumb sorry😭)

[stark lantern]

I am not sure if I can help you out with this specific prompt but I do suggest checking out #❌┃prompt-help and the DALLE Prompt book at: https://pitch.com/v/DALL-E-prompt-book-v1-tmd33y for more help with prompts.
