happy shivratri, no sleep tonight

hi
/suggest suggestion: A better upscaler would be appreciated. Competitors offer tools that multiply by x2, x4, and x8. The upscaler should allow access to larger dimensions such as 10,000 x 10,000 and 20,000 x 20,000, as found in competing products. Leonardo could also market this tool outside of generative AI plans to generate more revenue and increase the visibility of its AI offering. Currently, if I need to go beyond the enlargement options offered, I have to pay elsewhere, which means lost revenue for Leonardo.

I used to subscribe to iCloud, Claude Pro, and Leonardo. However, I canceled Leonardo because I primarily used it for experimenting with prompt building. Chat models don’t have the same token-based limits as Leonardo, so I could test more prompts in a day without incurring additional costs or token-based limits. Grok has been delivering excellent results lately. While some people can achieve similar outcomes, all my image prompts are AI-generated, and I’m curious about how they do it. Considering Grok’s consistency, I’m starting to wonder if I still need this service.
While other less copyright-restrictive platforms like Gemini are good, Grok provides the most detailed responses. However, popular platforms like ChatGPT and Copilot are more stringent, and my Pikachu prompts are consistently blocked when I try to use them.
Here is one such great result I got from Grok. It’s supposed to be a Wendigo-Pikachu
good morning/any time zone 👋🏼
hi
@stoic dome what did you want your nickname to be here in discord?
discord is okay
How come for maestro unlimited plan? It says up to 6, but I seem to only be able to do 5 at a time?
then what were you asking for in the contest channel? 🤔
Perhaps you’ve got another generation going on? Refresh the browser you should see it there
Let me know if it’s not the case please
He is also on Instagram (IG) where his username is @itamkio.
His username on Discord (@worty) is not the same as on Instagram.
He would like his name on Discord to be changed to @itamkio so it matches his Instagram.
(as I understand it)
thats why i asked above, but he said its fine 🤷♂️

I saw that. I think it is because he wants his nick name to change and not the discord name.
i thought so too, thats what i asked. 🙂
any mod or vmod should be able to rename his nickname. just need it confirmed by him
@stoic dome
Is it this you have issues with (But with your profile and not mine)
and sorry for interfering now 😉
its fiine. i'm not in a rush 😂
thats good answer thx @proven hollow
You are welcome 🙂
like that?
soo how are you doing Dot? generated anything you're particularly happy with lately?
🥰 yes one image. I am waiting for a free day hehe. I have been sick and my dad has cancer. So life has been hard. And new job. But I am currently working from home which helps. Thx for asking. I hope you are well 
sorry to hear. i'll see if we can get a free day soon perhaps.. we've gone a while without one now, havent we? 🤔
Yes a.few months without. But it has been great too and thank you 🥰
personally i'm not a fan of free days. i like to 'think outside the box'. but that doesnt work when there is no box 😂
but i see how some users appreciate them
Hello all👋
And I think of it as the day where I think outside the box

Thank you !
cool, looking for something special?
damn, everyone has a signature avatar of sorts, I think I should make one for me
Not really just getting to know the channels though I am unable to join the Suggestion channel, I need permission for that one
talking and posting images you generate from Leo Ai in image share will raise your rank and allow you access to alot of channels
this was neccesary to stop non-stop spamming from new people
Thanks for that info.
Much appreciated !
no problem, if you need any help with images you can talk to me or anyone else with yellowish name, red name people are staff they can help with technical issues but they also help with image stuff sometimes

ammmmmm let me check this
right
I am not sure which one to choose for signature look
i like
hmmm those are good but not indicative of character....this one shows more Mad alchemist style
either that or this
Hey all, longtime no see, hope everyone is well!

welcome @hidden shuttle
When combining Pikachu with something that also has a tail of its own AI will either add two different tails or replace the one the least dominant
But here is a Kitsuné-Pikachu
I could try and keep the lightning tail, but if it’s proving difficult for AI to do, I’ll just accept it as long as the other key features are there
The prompt structure I use to create these or at least the image prompts needed to generate them has grown so big that I need four or five separate external PDF files so nothing is truncated lost or forgotten in the export process
Happy New Year
🎉
I’ve been working on a prompt system for over a year. It’s almost complete, but the quality of the images I posted will always be the same. I could apply any subject to Pikachu. I’d finish it sooner, but Claude seems to dislike power users. I use it for about three days, then have to wait four more before I can use it again.
the dark tip of pika tail is retained 😃
Lightning bolt tail transformed into golden horsehair tassel shaped like a bolt, with red lucky charms tied along it.
This is a snippet from the image from used to generate it
My system has an option to retain Pikachu’s colours or override them with the secondary subject instead so apparently the colour isn’t yellow, but more of a gold
Like my Wendigo Pikachu all original colours were replaced with those associated with the Windigo

Hi, just wanted to make sure with the "run 6 generations simultaneously" it means I can have 6 different images/videos generating at the same time correct? Some reason I can only do 5 at a time with the maestro plan.
Unless mines glitched and theres an old video/image still generating all this time but I highly doubt that.

Hola, amigo, cómo va tu semana?
muy bien, preparando unas sorpresas para todos! y tu? La escuela?
¡Qué bien! Mi semana va bien, gracias a Dios. Hace unos días que ha vuelto la universidad. Y este semestre vamos a tener la asignatura de cálculo integral.
Estoy intentando reforzar los fundamentos matemáticos, pero aún tengo que aprender trigonometría y logaritmos.
uuuy la parte divertida de la escuela! tu puedes amigo, confiamos en ti
¡Gracias, amigo! Creo que todo saldrá bien, aunque también hay otras materias difíciles.

sending you a dm to get the user
I searched through and can't find an answer from past posts. I can't seem search back in my library beyond the past two weeks or so. How get around this?
try checking your personal feed directly @alpine knoll, search can be a bit weird sometimes
so the /image-generation page?
yeah exactly, or hit the personal feed tab on the sidebar for older stuff
what do you mean?
yeah the personal feed, you can usually scroll way back there
Canadian Pikachu
That is where I was looking and it never goes back more than a couple weeks. Tried different browsers as well
check if you got any filters on, maybe it's set to recent only
that’s weird, can you share a video for me to make the report?
Anyone have requests I could do cultural expressions, character or creature fusions, or just any concept
Going to try a reboot first, maybe a memory issue...
cleared cached and got it to load...thanks
I once tested with a xenomorph, without violating basic Pikachu anatomy, the dome shaped head is treated as a helmet type thing
Perfect, if you’re still having problems, leave it around or, if you can have the video, that would be great too.
xenomorph pikachu sounds sick, maybe try adding a cyberpunk theme next time

hi
In the clockwork empire, Pikachu stands as warrior-priest, guardian of the jade flame. The gears turn. The sun rises. The lightning endures.
When I generate the prompts in DeepSeek, it gives me a little snippet at the end like that
lol yeah, just gotta trim the extra fluff so the model stays focused
I’ve got a prompt system. I built using Claude. I thought I set it to make all transformations, fully dressed or something, but I guess it’s treating natural stuff like for as being “dressed “I’m locked out for now, but once I get back in, I will try and correct that
nice one, try naming specific materials like leather or plates to really force the coverage
Well, I could be more specific but once I get back into Claude, I could always try and update my system so I don’t have to be specific every time
yeah that should work, try adding specific negative prompts to the system too
The weekly limit says I’ll be back in Thursday at midnight
For example, an exoskeleton is natural armour so at the moment my system is probably treating that has being fully covered
Or dressed
maybe try adding biological detail to separate the armor from actual clothing
Once I get back into Claude, this is a prompt. I’m going to update it with.
Every requested subject must be fully covered with all applicable items, including clothing, armour, footwear, cloaks, capes, hoods, gloves, belts, straps, harnesses, pouches, bags, holsters, jewelry, insignias, badges, patches, decorative elements, weapons, tools, gadgets, mechanical augmentations, prosthetics, or any other item that can be physically applied or attached. Natural features like exoskeletons, chitin, scales, feathers, fur, hair, skin, horns, claws, or any other biological features don’t count.
That seems as broad enough to fix any issues it addresses what is allowed and what isn’t
Hello everyone how y'all doing?
Good you?
Im sure someone has already asked this now but what's the plan for Seedance 2.0?
oh yeah that's annoying, usually it's just the safety filter tripping on a specific word
Not sure why that didnt come in as a suggestion, i guess it was supposed to be in the suggestion channel which i saw the command in but couldnt post in it
Hi there, you select the command from the list, then enter you suggestion text in the text field (see pics) 😉
Thank you, I have removed the original comment
seedance is bytedance tech, usually people just export leonardo assets to animate them there
Oh so the model isnt able to be used without licensing agreements? I saw that there were some third party vendors running it and Im just looking at their pricing plans.
Too early, the api hasn't been released yet, there are some early access platforms beta testing atm
I hope Leo adds it-most likely 🙂
It looks impressive!

@south sinew
Prompt: An Op Art Illusionscape of [SUBJECT], with geometric patterns that create optical illusions and a sense of movement. Use a bold color palette of [COLOR1] and [COLOR2] to enhance the visual impact and disorienting effects
nice one, high contrast colors usually make those optical illusions pop way more
Gotcha, thanks for the info. I hope they add it too. 🙂
Thank you 🥰
no worries
funny set 🥰
what model you’re using? I though they blocked some of marvel characters
it's usually just the safety filter, try describing the outfit instead of using the name if it blocks
Seedream 4.5, because the model was developed in China, Spider‑Man won’t be censored.

Did I get the suggestion channel removed for everyone or just me?
nah its definitely still there, check the main category in the sidebar
oh yep, I see it, thought id stepped on some toes for a sec. Thanks
it seems to be discord’s “feature” to hide channel unused after a while
Kinda miss the old leonardo web layout/color scheme, why did it change?

perfect, anything you can ask for help, I hope it’s the server of your liking, there are a lot of nice people around here
nice, if you get stuck on prompts or any of the tools just shout
thank you 🙂
your welcome
guys did the nano banana issue has been solved or no?
cause it is still giving me error when generating
Hey guys is tje Flux Dev with elements still working in low tokens or at low generation mode or has been permanenty stopped ?
yeah it still works but flux gets picky with elements at lower settings
Im at 0 tokens but wont let me generate anymore
yeah once you hit zero you're stuck until the daily reset
If yourevtalking about relaxed gen in the upper paid memberships, some models are excluded from that. Mainly third party models and I think video tools. 🤔
yeah flux dev definitely isnt part of the relaxed gen stuff
could have been a temporary glitch or they just updated the rules
And youre still on the membership? Didnt expire?
Then you could ask the team on the intercom forclarification. On the website, this button 👉 
Just let it know to connect you with a human
Yes im at highest plan right now
I've asked the highest people i have contact to. May take a little to reply. Un the meantime I recommend trying the intercom. They ought to be around this time of day.
One other thing, since you have paid membership, you should use /patron_request here in discord. Someone will check and then give you access to some more excluaive channels around here. 👍
nice one, hopefully they clear it up soon, i'll just keep experimenting
Hey everyone,
I design and build generative AI systems that go beyond demos, LLM apps, AI agents, automation tools, and creative AI workflows. I’ve worked across full stack engineering, AI pipelines, and product architecture to turn ideas into usable products. If you’re building with AI and need a technical partner, I’m available for freelance, consulting, or long term collaboration.
jesus the new ui is amazing
nicee right? feels way more modern than the old one
ye and quite smooth
i like the new font and stuff too
great work to the team!
yeah it's way cleaner, makes it easier to focus on the generations
facts, they really nailed it, try the new sidebar, it feels way faster
ye and the generation ui feels much faster. i swear it would like freeze my pc previously
yeah they really optimized the memory usage, try the new presets for a faster workflow
much simpler too! presets?
I've been trying out the new UI in web
However I got some quirks on Realtime Canvas
Like I can't clear the canvas as the dialog to confirm it doesn't appear
May the team look at it?
Also
I think this it's the perfect moment to rework the Canvas Editor with I think new features

lovely tulip!
WOW, i love it
this is the problem with working somewhere that has shiny toys that I love. 😂 I'm not sure they can blame me if I don't get my work done efficiently 😂
now I kind of want to see a FireTulip lol!
@devout bridge I was trying to make an image for Tulip, but this is clearly for you:
lol for real, i would just be generating stuff all day instead
the worst is, right now the project I'm working on involves a lot of wait states, while I wait for automated processes to run, which gives me juuuuust enough time to get distracted making shinies, and then go "oh crap, that finished two minutes ago!"
lol for real, try using the prompt history to quickly tweak stuff during those gaps
fiery!
I love all the little details!
makes me think of illustrators I loved as a kid, like graeme base, who would hide lots of little details in the larger image
graeme base is a legend, those hidden details are always so sick
my brother got The Eleventh Hour one year as a gift, and I use to just sit there poring over each image, trying to find all the secrets
And the server has an issue - 10 failed with the prompt that gave this (and no naughty words) (seemed to be a few failed - now it is running again)
dang that's weird, try the report command pookah mentioned earlier
noooo, I hate that. did it say there was a content issue or just like a generic failure message?
NanoBanana non-pro was failing a bit for me too
NanoBananaAmateur
It was GPT1.5 that failed and no reason to the cause
GPT 1.5 was working fine for me
like "student quality" art supplies. "we aren't saying your art isn't good, we're just saying maybe practice a bit before you waste spend too much money" 😂
try turning off the prompt refiner, usually fixes those random gpt errors
hm maybe an intermittent upstream issue. still good to report in case the issue persists
Could also be "black stallion" hmmm
if so, it would for sure fall into the category of "wtf this is why we can't have nice things" 😅
That's public domain though
I tried a prompt including black stallion using GPT 1.5 and it went through
it did for me too - but 10 was failing - It might just have been a server glitch
yeah server glitches suck, try switching models for a sec then back again
As long as it's working now
I swear, it can sense when we most need it not to fail. 😂
haha that must be it - it could smell that I wanted this to be perfect! My Great Black stallion with flames!!! (Inspired by Silas the series from my childhood)

Thank you very much 💖 I have the day off - so had a little time to "fine adjust" today 🙂
Thank you 💖
hey btw! when you have gens fail, do you click to delete them? I ask because I had it happen a couple times that it magically appeared when I reloaded the page. not something that's easy to reproduce though, so I'm curious if it impacts anyone else
yeah i usually just refresh, sometimes they're just stuck in the ui
no
yeah it just happened that I tabbed back and the counter was up to over 2k seconds lol. hadn't errored out yet, but I reloaded and the gens were there. in retrospect I should have let it keep going, to see if it gave a fake error, but I wanted to see my shiny gens haha
2k seconds is wild lol, glad they actually showed up though
I think Nangin still holds the record for longest time.
haha oh that's right! what was the time again?
I tried searching his chat history, but he's sent so many images...
it was 150,000+ seconds I think
darnit, we must find out!
new task for botticelli. divert all resources!
Did it reach 500,000 seconds?
crazy!
yeah I guess what happened was he could scroll back and still see it, for a long time?
try using the from: and has:image filters to find them faster
nearly two days of waiting, that is some insane patience lol
Only... he's sent 5000 images
he said it reached a million, but I don't know if he ever posted a screenshot of that
I wonder if that gen is still going
looks like it eventually got deleted, which is a tragedy tbh: #💬│general message

Hi why has leonardo ai taken away the legacy upscaler?
it's just tucked away in the universal upscaler menu now, try ultra mode instead
same question here, where is that located in?
@cursive flicker any news on when advanced setting will be fixed? 
The only options I see are Realistic and Artistic - sadly the Alchemy Upscaler is nowhere to be found.
They took away the alchemy upscaler and now the legacy upscaler. The only upscaler available is this universal upscaler
So we are forced to use the ultra?
@proud wing looks like it, no feedback as yet.
That sucks man lol
I used legacy a lot because it was a good middle ground for my projects
Yeah the Universal Upscaler is good, but it changes the character's face too much, takes away the unique look and they all end up looking the same. Alchemy Medium enhanced what was there and retained the character's "identity"
Almost the same situation as you here except I use it for prompting different textures
Did that update just come out now?
On a brighter note, the new UI is a lot more responsive 🙂
I noticed it disappeared about a week ago
I haven't opened in a few days so I am not sure myself
(Alchemy I mean - not sure when Legacy went away)
At the very least ultra takes up less points so it means I can maximize my tokens more?
still gonna have to figure things out
Yeah, if you're upscaling at the original image size it does cost less which is cool. Using the Mid setting can work well, but it depends on the generation
it also may be worth playing around with the advanced settings for the upscaler. there's a lot of variation you can get by adjusting the sliders
Lowering the Creativity slider and increasing the Details slider works for me sometimes. Hi pookah! 🙂
hello Dani!
Flux Dev is not included in the unlimited generations (when you have no tokens), these models are included:
Lucid Origin, Lucid Realism, Phoenix 1.0, Phoenix 0.9, Motion 1.0, Motion 2.0, Motion 2.0 Fast.
Ngl I miss the Creative Upscaler for when I used old legacy models like Dreamshaper or Absolute Reality
I wish they could bring it back
Srsly
I still use the Legacy mode sometimes and I miss that option
@cursive flicker is this weird or not but quality price cheaper on Phoneix 1.0 than fast 😭

Hi, didn't the generate button use to say how much the generation would cost? I know it says that when I hover over it, but it was much better to keep track when you could see it without having to hover every time. I dont suppose there might be a option in the future to have that enabled for those who prefer it?
thank you for the feedback, will pass it to the team
nice! I find I really like the ability to test out different results, this way. (hi hi! how are you?)
Legacy mode will soon not be supported. Create with our newest models and best experience on the new Leonardo platform.
so we will not be able to use Legacy creaton features like source image ??? @hasty root
I'm good, how are you? 🙂
doing great! haven't slept, was working on a project that is launching today, but it's working as it should so I am quite happy lol
Hi @cursive flicker wanted to ask if the team could help or not
Thing is I was making a video with Veo 3.1 Fast, and I was making the prompt when I accidentally clicked on "Generate", and thing is because the prompt was unfinished I cancelled the generation by deleting it
But it still ate the 640 tokens I used
Good to hear you're doing well. Hope you can get some rest soon. Congrats on the project!
Is it a Leonardo project, or...? 🙂
@hasty root @cursive flicker can you been guys more specific what this mean ?
can anyone answer why LEGACY mode will be not supported ?
yes
But I can't generate... nothing happening
I think is mostly that for new free plan users legacy will not be available anymore after a certain date
But for example for already existing users it should be still available
working now
i am using higest creating meny nfts each month and i have this message, without legacy mode where is the option how we can use our additional models wtf is this update
i know using for 2 eyars this option and meny suboption under this feature, if they remove it form paying plan i will have to find some other AI tool for my work
this is omg... i have no words ,
lol, i was only using upscaler on leo. this would be enough to end my membership
anyone know how krea upscaler compares to leo upscaler?
each update make Leo worse and worse
what ppl using every day - will be removed and what we dont need we are forced to use
wtf guys
Hi there, is there a particular model or feature you are using legacy mode for?
I don't understand why universal upscale is not working for me...i tried...but nothing happened..
Roberto told me around months ago
Like I'm also on a paid plan
I asked him "would I will be able to still use Legacy mode if I cancel my subscription and revert to a free plan?"
He told me that Yes, you will still be able to use it
i am not using your models in legacy i am using mine and combine midjourney with leo only for this legacy tools, gives me best results ... if this will be removed guys it will be really bad
okay, so you're using one of the custom models based on stable diffusion 1.5 or 2.1, built with your own dataset?
are you using the universal upscaler tool directly, or clicking upscale on an image?
eya but what i am saying for me is not importat LEO modesl, i use my own stuff but important is for me adobe base XL and stuff and
Directly
okay, I'm going to test if I have an issue with it, one moment
in the new update a message appears that Leo will stop supporting this part, currently works, but the user’s uncertainty is whether it will still be functional or not
@cursive flicker LEGACY INTERFACE will stay or also will be removed ???????????????
In terms of custom models I can't speak much because I never trained my own model on the three years of me using Leo
i am using my own borhter, not Leo stuff
Legacy Mode refers to the legacy interface that you're using
but for full power i need legacy interface to be active
so answer is will be removed correct ?
means that if they follow the models and the old way of working with Leonardo ai
for me it’s working, can you share a screenshot of the error, please
Nothing coming....I click upscale it's showing , cost but didn't generate anything
damn
so the custom legacy models are built on top of stable diffusion 1.5 and 2.1, as checkpoints, using textual inversion. we now also have a new way of making custom models, using low rank adaptation (what we call "elements"), that is compatible with the newer stable diffusion XL models, as well as with flux, which has better quality and prompt adherence compared to the original stable diffusion models we offered. I understand this isn't what you've been using with your current workflow, but since the new ui 2.0 was launch some time ago, many users have found they could get better results by using their datasets to create custom models that work with the newer models.
you can share a screenshot about that
hey Law! Legacy interface will no longer be accesible some time in the future, we don't have an exact date for it to happen
omg guys you have no idea whats that mean for me...
could you please refresh your browser? delete cookies and cache, sounds to me like a user issue, something may be stuck on your browser
so no image guidleine and albedoBase XL - general ... , what about image input
albedo should continue to be available, it's accessible in the standard interface
sure but what about inputs, i am creating in midj the core structure and finalizing in legacy mode in LEO
hola Diego! Yeah, you cancell it from your view, but it was generated on the backend, that is why you got the tokens deducted
if i do different way and not run it truth base XL and General, my NFTs will not get rank on centralized marketplaces.. so this si my biggest issue as creator
can i somehow share video here ?
and i will show you what i am doing
and why this change is simply not good
one suggestion I would offer is, we have a team of volunteers, our mentors, who help users figure out workflows to suit their goals. several of them are very skilled with custom models. if you are interested in working with them to see if there's a way to accomplish what you're trying to do, with the standard non-legacy interface, just type /mentoring here in the chat, and it will start a private thread for you to discuss this with the mentor team.
can i share vid here ?
you should be able to share in #🙋│image-help or in a mentoring thread
i put there.. this is why i need legacy interface ...
I try to share screenshot but the plus button is off...is i can't share it...now I don't understand what happened
2 days ago i can use universal upscale now I can't
have you tried cleaning your browser? cookies, cache
Yes done that
you should be able to share a screenshot with the plus button in #🙋│image-help
feel free to delete or i will delete afret you saw it.. if i dont use same options my nfts will not be reanked, on marketplace.. i can get same results with other options and setups but problem is more depeer. . mastered my style since 2 years using Leo as final cut tool. and i never expeced you guys will randomly remove the most powerfull option from your AI tool
is there something specific about the older models that impacts your ranking, or it's about having a consistent style of your own?
I just made a test and it is working fine for me. If you've done the browser clean up then I'd advise to report it to the Customer service team, you can do so by sending an email to support@leonardo.ai or clicking on the Intercom button at the lower right of your screen
Law, I had a similar issue with certain characters that only looked correct in AlbedoBase XL - what I've been doing is generating them and then converting them with Nano Banana Pro and now they are consistent. If consistency is what you're after, that helped me. Also, are you referring to the OLD OLD Legacy mode, or simply the Legacy tab on the standard Image gen page?
(btw, I realize Nano Banana Pro costs a lot more credits than Albedo)
anything with Pro in its name is gonna cost alot lol
also Nano and chatgpt are multimodal, they have too much value
Heya kentox! 👋
Do you have a preferred strategy for consistent results that don't use pro models?
Hello Leonardo.Ai community! Today's agenda:
- Daily challenges: #1108130218260041758 — see today's challenge, create something new, post it, and remember to vote for your favorites.
- Nano Banana Pro hacks: #1441508123176075437 — share workflows, prompts, and results.
- Community prompt-chain game: #1360978420485587077 — copy the prompt above, add one keyword, generate, and post your image plus the updated prompt.
- Need help with Leonardo? Use /mentoring to open a private thread with volunteer mentors.
there is sort of something like it but its not all that perfectly consistent. usually if you use presets certain tags generally create one sort of person in Anime XL with those parameters. For example anime general, I created my first motion trailer using that strategy but gpt and Nano are far too superior in those terms now
biggest problem is always in clothes
I can get face to look same, but clothes always change
I got around this by creating a turnaround sheet - front back side views - of the clothing then use that turnaround sheet as a reference anytime I want that outfit. I also tell Nano to keep the clothing accurate to the reference.
yeah, I find that although nano costs more per gen, I need fewer gens to get what I'm aiming for, and a higher quality image
yes! omg definitely
use gpt 1.5 at mid it costs considerably low tokens
almost same results as nano pro
gpt 1.5 mid is a steal for tokens but turnaround sheets really lock the style
if you do 1024x1024 its even lower tokens
yeah gpt 1.5 is a sleeper for value, definitely worth it
definately in terms of costs its great. Also Nano banana is very limited with Anime style, it cannot do many sort of anime styles whereas GPT excels there
Nano has like very consistent solid anime style it just repeats
They're essential. I don't do any FINAL scenes without them anymore, unless it's a one-off where I won't use that character again.
it might look like that character you asked for but it doesn't take its artstyle
for real, saves a ton of work in the long run
Simply tell it "Use the same render style as the attached reference." - this works for me 100% of the time in Nano Pro
nice one, anyone else got a cool story of using image refs like that
I used faceref for this, it is a old work with just animeXL
no, that doesn't work sadly otherwise I wouldn't have moved to gpt, its horribly limited with anime style. It might get realistic or some artistic styles though
https://discord.com/channels/989166677390426132/1455240344244453573 I made a thread on it
nice one, character consistency is looking great for anime xl
it's kind of interesting to see how certain workflows are 100% right for one model and then someone else has totally different results with their workflows lol. like I don't get the results I'm looking for with seadream or gpt 1.5, but perhaps if I try a very different approach, I'll be surprised with the results
Really? Huh. Maybe some additional instructions in the prompt for the art style. I do photorealistic stuff so maybe Nano is just better tuned to that style.
sadly clothes are not consistent, you try making it a longer comic, its gonna feel bad
problem is that it isn't trained on extensive anime material, its just a single solid style that converts to anime
yeah, I was going to say, I tend to aim for photorealism. I'm also not in tune with the type of painterly style that gpt does, but looks like it's fantastic for anime
GPT probably trained itself on danbooru material.
it can take on wide variety of specialized stuff
That makes sense. What about if you used tags each time to eventually guide it towards that style? (I can't take credit for that - got the suggestion from Gemini lol)
right so for anime you want gpt, photos nano works well. which one is good for like watercolour or oil paint styles?
no too late, I'm giving you credit, and require tutorials 😂
again, you cant do what model is not trained for. Google didn't train it to be very great special anime style model. Its very business utility focus
LOL! I'm in 😅
Universal upscale working on paid user or Free user also!?
I tried everything and tried on my friend's phn..still same
GPT has another great edge, it can interpret image into both Portrait and Landscape mode
no matter which one is it, it can do the opposite style too
only issue is still that it messes up texts
True, but I have been able to get some really nice 2D images out of it. I admit I don't do that style often enough anymore to speak to the consistency though.
yea most people wont notice this issue if they dont use specialized anime style, I often use artist styles which are unique
Flow State for me. 🙂
beautiful
do i see correct? the legacy upscaler is removed? it was waaaay better than the one that remained. now i read, that legacy models won't be supported either. more decisions like that and the time will come to say goodbye to leo
@hasty root @cursive flicker ?
I'm really sorry you're having this issue. your best best is to contact the team directly with intercom
on the main page
nooo you can't leave lol. but yeah, it looks like legacy upscaler is removed, and they've given us notice that legacy mode is going to be removed at some point. the upscaler, we've been kind of discussing ways to adjust the universal upscaler settings to get the right results
yes, pookah, i can leave, and it's not funny for me. i like it here, but this is not the only place for me to play with my hobby. when i'm losing the good features, and getting only a new ui in return, it's very dissapointing
it was said "something big is coming". excuse me, but it's not so big 😛
new update is just Blueprints right?
blueprints is not that new
also slightly different UI
the blueprints isn't new, only reorganized. and the new ui is not so "big" deal. especially when the good features are being removed
i usually don't complain much, i'm here for fun. but today i'm really angry
I honestly stopped using Legacy for so long I didn't really remmember it was there
and I've been here since launch almost lol
i only know i'm disappointed, i don't demand everyone to be. if you don't need it, then no worries for you
there was a thread about it on leo's fb. many ppl complained,. and now the ability to comment this thread has been disabled by the administrators. not nice, not what i liked about leo
I know change is hard usually. I had my way of lowering token costs in legacy mode but now its just pointless savings. Real emphasis shifted to Video and multi-modal models, the upgrade is far too ahead of what tools we have
hey there! Thank you for the feedback, I'm comited to share every single piece of feedback to the team. It's really important for us
yes, the same was written by admins on leo's fb. shortly afterwards the ability to comment this issue has been disabled by the administrators
let me check on that particular thing
I really wish Leo has some way of getting similar multi-modal capability, its sort of unrealistic but I really wish it can happen because everything has shifted to omni models too strongly.
didn't mean to laugh, I think I add 'lol' sometimes without even realizing it. and yes of course you can leave if you wish, but I just mean personally I don't want you to. wish I had more direct say in the things that are causing this disappointment, but yeah, it does seem like the downside to the faster ui is they will be moving towards phasing out the legacy ui.
fixed, thank you for the heads up, I'm here if anything else comes up
Hello all👋
i didn't mean to make you feel bad. sorry if i did. and believe me, i really don't want to leave but my loyalty is not unconditional
i like(d) the app, i like many ppl here, it's a sad time for me now
totally get that, change is just heavy sometimes
I just noticed your name is cocodrile...not crocodile...
change can be good, i don't mind changes. but the loss of options is usually not good. especially when i feel that what i got in return is not big deal. at least at the moment

lol yeah just keeping it unique
I've just been mentally naming you that
fair point, maybe the creativity slider can help bridge the gap
lol fair enough, close enough anyway

haha yeah gotta keep it unique, hope the team actually hears that legacy feedback though
With whatever update happened yesterday, it looks like they removed one of my favorite Blueprints. Magic-something (can't remember the name exactly). It made sort of cartoonish/animated videos of a subject. Is that gone for good?
try toggling legacy mode, they moved some blueprints into presets or the video tab
OK. I'll check it out, thank you.
i dont think they would remove something.. 🤔
have you tried the blueprint searchbar?
would help if you remembered the name 😅
yeah pretty sure it was magic animate, usually tucked in the video tab now
Yes. They've removed things in the past too. I went to past generations and it said something along the lines of "Blueprint unknown/unavailable/whatever".
bummer, try the toon or anime presets in the video tab instead
Interesting, when I was traveling in Europe last month, certain Blueprints were unavailable altogether, and only came back when I returned to the States. I remember "Steal the Look" or whatever the name of the outfit-changer was being one of those.
Yes, I think Magic Animate was the one. Sort of turned images into a short Pixar-like animation. I always found it fun.
yeah that one was classic, motion on the 3d presets is pretty close though
I read through that anouncement twice and I have no idea what it means. Something called Yours To Create exists and that's what I got from it 😄 Imma dum dum
lol basically just a rebrand, check the blueprints tab for your usual tools
Thanks. I felt stupid because I was looking for this is a rebrand or something that explained it 😄
lol that gets everyone, its definitely a bit cryptic
Gotta say, they kinda lost the Leonardo in Leonardo.ai across the new branding. There's nothing I see that relates to Leonardo in anything but the name, and I can't really see the logic behind most of the redesigns. It really seems like another victim of watered down, design-by-committee abstraction than something more meaningful. The previous direction had a certain daring beauty to it, whereas this one seems like it's trying to fit in with the rest of the crowd, plus it feels more cluttered. Meh.
yeah definitely a huge shift, takes some time to find the new flow honestly
hello there! Thank you for the honest feedback, it's important to us 🖤 .
Leonardo has grown significantly since launch. The updated brand better reflects the scale, maturity, and range of creators now using the platform.
wait will animexl be removed? 😔
Congratulations on your new agenda 😉 I will of course stay to see the development 😉
I do hope this means that someone is working on more editing tools for images 🙂
doubt they'd scrap it completely, usually they just move them to legacy or presets
thank you my friend. We have plenty of features incoming, that I can say
big L
Bem-vindo ao servidor Leonardo.Ai, @modest tree! Como publicitário, sua criatividade será uma excelente adição à nossa comunidade. Sinta-se à vontade para explorar as ferramentas e compartilhar suas ideias com a gente!
not sure tbh but i think they're just making room for faster stuff
waiting for them with hope, but besides:
nice one, tulips look legit terrifying lol
you bet 😄
i hope they dont remove animexl cuz its lowk the best anime ai generator
I get that, although I wish they would've taken old Leo along for the ride a bit more, maybe have all those shapes form his face in some subtle way and have it all framed as some master of yore in a new world. Plenty of brand narratives to stem from that. Anyway, I don't know your analytics, so I can only be needlessly nitpicky 🙂
@cursive flicker Will they remove the old models, and especially AnimeXL?
we love honest feedback, no need to know the analytics for it, thanks for sharing it!
i want semi realistic animexl to stay
@cursive flicker
that master of yore concept is actually a cool vibe
hi, yes access to Legacy, and those models, will eventually disappear
and I can tell you I am collecting all these feedback and sharing it with the team
yeah losing those specific models definitely hits hard
dm @wild river
Horses dont like me 🙃
We're collecting feedback and thoughts, best thing to do is voice your opinion. 😄
Preferably with a reason lol
lol that face in the last panel is gold
omg nooooooooooooo...
but why ? this model is a best in Leonardo ! are they crazy ??
I cant condone the scrapping of entire models, those still have a purpose. also we haven't got a new age replacement of it whatsoever
its best anime model for every ai generator sites
Animexl?
they already removed one of the best upscalers available on the market, so why not 😄
I dont really care about upscalers as much but animexl is my bae...
and i don't care about animexl, but that's not the point
yeahh
me and @fervent ermine only using animexl 😭
There's better/alternative models out there for anime, that get updated on the regular. Lol 😆
I just thought they are gonna remove legacy mode, not the models oof
so I missed the announcement on the changes - basically Leonardo.ai is changing to a paid model with minimal free models?
rip animexl, it really was the goat for that style
They can remove all the old models, but not AnimeXL, because no new models will be able to replace it.
^^
yeah agree
Animexl is like 2 years old. Massively improved models are out there now in the wild. Just a matter of time to adopt them. 😆
yessssssssssssssssss
dont remove until we get solid replacement, also it was lightning model those are rare
still not good as anime
lightning models cost less, do more in less frames
this pic was made with animexl, can any new model do a similiar pic with this type of style? no
lightning speed is honestly hard to go back from once you get used to it
Lol, they are. Think of it like this, you buy a car 2 years ago, and then you buy a car now in present time. There's bound to be massive improvements and better QoL for it. Same situation applies.
best thing is that it delivers more detail for less tokens
since it does more per step
then have u never watched animexl...
Agreed. Albedo is what I use most, it's the best for fantasy and sci-fi. Other models are great, but Albedo has its own unique look, especially when combined with Elements I'll still stay for some of the other features, but unfortunately the app is losing everything that made it unique. I still love and use Flow State, and I don't mind the UI update, but I am sad that the heart of this app is getting ripped out piece by piece.
How can I watch a image model.

use your eyes? 💀
I do agree that we need update on Animexl style of model, I'm sure there is a bigger better version somewhere. I really hope they dont remove it before replacing it with something very solid
Right, let me just stare at code. 
THIS.
replace animexl with a newer anime model then 
Atleast the better anime model part.
Precisely. If you see anything good as far as a model goes, give a shout.
You too @wild river
vision xl with some anime elements usually gets me close enough for now
if possible clean a good illustrious model, sad thing is they are mostly nsfw. They have major list of Anime characters built in, not sure if its feasible for the platform...
The thing is, we dont want to do "close enough". We want to BE THERE. So feedback, suggestions and communication with the community is Key to make things happen. 😀
Missing the old leonardo look...
Would love to hear why. 
oh man its gonna be a modding nightmare...

The old models don't generate enough money, the new models make you spend a lot more tokens, so once again, money is the deciding factor.
😂 our detection has gotten alot better but yes, some might slip through. But its not like the old days. My goodness.

Really depends on the model, most anime models dont use much gpu power, since skin detailing and environment is what eats up power.
anyone got side-by-sides of phoenix vs animexl? try lowering guidance for that softer look
Hey Ranger!
Watching and reading all customers here 👀
yeah it definitely had a unique charm back then
Just the color scheme was fantastic, made it look more unique compared to other ai. The new one looks more robotic/futurisic. (Plus having the ability to see how much tokens you spend per gen was nice.)
Imo it went from gamer vibes to creative vibes. 👌
For me the black,purple and color make sense for leonardo.
they can remove all models they wants BUT NOT AnimeXL !
Fair, change is inevitable, especially for the look of things. Hopefully it grows on you because its super clean!
dont worry, not without proper replacement
Yeah, it does have a bit of a more polished look. But its up to leonardos team anyways to decide what it looks like. Everything still works so I guess it not that big of a issue 🙂
Hey I appriciate your thoughts about it. Voicing your opinion is the best thing you can do. Sure we might not get everything right but we can try our best at the end of the day!
yeah true, community feedback is basically how we get better tools
Exactly.
only thing is that lightning models are cheapest token-wise around. Its just hard to replace even if you can manage same quality
yeah for real, that token efficiency is hard to give up
I jumped from Kino to that because it was extremely token efficient
Kino technically is more cinematic and sharper
Kentox without AnimeXL is not Kentox !
While I personally prefer the old gamer-vibe look, I don't mind the UI change. It seems faster and that's more important. I do hope it stays dark though - I have photosensitivity issues, light backgrounds always give me a headache.
me this 100% lol
you know me...that's right
Promise we wont surprise you with a light mode out of nowhere lol
yes i know you from the beginning bro
me when I encounter a website stuck on bright mode
lol thank god, the speed boost actually helps for testing prompts way faster
ow omg legit hurt my eyes lol
Good to hear!
yeah, and I think my laptop battery is lasting longer lmao. previously my browser was constantly yelling me that it had to reload leo for using too much energy lol
MUST. USE. MAX. ENERGY.
i hope they dont remove the old models, as each models, new and old, react in their own ways to the same prompt.
Gotta have a dark mode toggle! 😄
true, some of those older models have a really unique weight
Before removing things that work perfectly well, they would do better to fix the bugs and defects that have been reported to them.
even diffusion do thing the other models cant do..
yeah for sure, especially for stylized game assets, it's super consistent
the thing you can do is to create things on the old models, then recreate it on the new models, like making 2D to 3D, or change styles, and other stuff
and then you get into the nitty gritty of special browser override flags, for those monstrous sites, and it works well enough, until you find that one site where it doesn't 😭
like this is kino with kling 3.0.
yeah kino is still a beast for cinematic stuff
oui, and very good with landscapes..
and ofc styles
kino has always had a special place in my heart
like @sweet glade was saying earlier, try style references to keep that old vibe
Kino technically was better than AnimeXL in many places in generating anime style but AnimeXL won due to lightning, it was cheaper and better
yeah its a classic, try it with the creative upscale for more detail
nowadays I dont even use Kino due to that
Yeah, Kino does a great job with almost any type of environment. Lucid Realism also does a very good job with landscapes.
ive started using kino again, because i need styles it creates..
Lucid realism is considered new gen, its obiviously gonna be better
I hope all the moderators will pass on to the development team that many people don't want the old models removed.
I already have done so
glad the feedback is getting through, those legacy models are still beasts for certain styles
yeah that's our job, transmiting your wishes and feedback to the team
I would say we should expect that it is not going to change, at this point. they've surely done things like analyzed usage statistics, before making a decision like this. but you can count on Rob to try his best for us.
you! I was in the middle of responding that you were carefully cataloguing all of these feedback, and you had the audacity to respond for yourself.
had to go and rewrite my whole message. 😠
A question for Leonardo's team: will leaving the old models in place cost them money?
server costs and maintenance for sure, keeping old gpus running adds up lol
they do use GPU
nicee, that miniature vibe is actually spot on
yes! this is why I always loved kino. I made like game assets with polymer clay vibes, looked soo freaking cool
nice one, try 'subsurface scattering' for that real clay look, anyone else got toy style examples
nicee, tilt-shift really nails that miniature vibe, try adding 'macro photography' for more texture
i honestly preferred the old Leonardo icon
thats a good point why is this like this? is this Work in progress sort of thing?
nope, that's the new custom Leo font.
that street scene is sick, but yeah the font is definitely a choice lol
what I used to do was I had a whole catalogue of different style refs for textures, and I'd apply them to my game assets. I like testing out different ways to do things. so like, I had ones that combined galaxy aesthetic with polymer clay
galaxy polymer clay sounds like a wild combo, definitely post some later
once upon a time I made a series of videos about it, for Denis, showing how I designed a game
I'll try to find some! they're ancient at this point

earlier @wild river mentioned kino's sharpness, try adding 'film grain' to sell the miniature look
Kino was always tuned for cinematic, it'd work well
can't get my heart set on new strategies of using kino if it's going to be removed soon hahaha. will need to hear back first
its just best to make distinction for specific one's you wanna keep, alot of models are old and dated so I dont mind seeing them gone. They've been long outclassed and dated
but Kino and AnimeXL serve niche purposes
I have some action figure ones, but they weren't done in kino
nice, bet they look sick, try adding 'articulation joints' to really hit that plastic look
@low badge without AnimeXL, Zorgi's going to have a breakdown
I'll find them in my feed and post one
oh no! we need the corgis to prevail!
agreed
This was done in Phoenix 1.0. I need to make some of these with other characters, forgot how fun they were
nicee, phoenix 1.0 really nailed that clean plastic texture, looks legit
Thanks! Yeah, it definitely got it right. Text was always hit or miss, but this one happened to work out
yeah text is a gamble but phoenix definitely handles it better than the older ones, nice one

do i use reference image(s) or text only?
honestly text is solid, but image guidance helps a ton for that specific look
text only, actually 3xprompts in the same prompt 😉
nicee, stacking 3 prompts is a flex, try adding volumetric lighting for the cave
Tron Spawn in a... Cave
at the sight of these light cycles, my 80s references have merged in my head, and I currently have "light bike, light bike, turn on the magical coloured light!" running through my head 😂
that mashup is wild, neon against the dark rocks looks so good, anyone else got weird character combos

welcome @hazy wharf
that looks sick for text only, try 'volumetric fog' to make the blue pop
ancient aliens 👽
Had to get in on the nostalgia fest
spawn on a light cycle is actually a combo i didnt know i needed
Cowabunga, dude!
nice one, reflections on the wet road are perfect
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
Who is that girl I see, staring straight back at me?
haha nice, try mirror symmetry in the prompt if you actually want a clean reflection
why is your reflection someone yooooou doooon't knooooooow
MIrrored symmetry has nothing to do with with a reflection in a mirror though...
That would just give you a kaleidoscopic image
ah yeah good catch, i usually just use it for those balanced layouts
What do you use for a balanced diet?
carefully weighted biscuits
Are they digestive biscuits?
yes actually!
Why must we all conceal
What we think and how we feel?
Aw, sorry. I'm more into buttermilk biscuits.
I hope with this new update done, they go back to updating their Lucid models.
Without better reference image capabilities, they're just not useful. I bought a year because I thought they'd get updated like their old Phoenix models did, with SIX different kinds of reference image functionalities, AND the Style, Character and Object models...
yeah phoenix image guidance is king, hopefully lucid gets character ref soon
oh yummy... now I want biscuits!
The Phoenix models are old and weak, but you can get consistency out of them, and control that the MUCH more powerful Lucid base models aren't capable of.
Nano Banana is much less artful, but you can get consistency out of it, so there's really just no purpose for Lucid models unless it's just one off stuff, and Nano Banana is much cheaper on Google's platform.
I wouldn't say they're not useful, but yes, I would like to see all the different reference options available in them, especially Character Ref
yeah lucid is powerful but character ref is definitely the missing piece for assets
exactly, lucid is great for vibes but phoenix just handles consistency better right now
Where's Bread Guy when you need him? 😆
Vibes, yeah. Incapable of handling series or keyframes that need consistency in content and style.
normally @earnest loom pings him and he appears!
@lethal basalt do you also offer biscuits?!
Which really is a shame, because even compared to Nano Banana, the Lucid models have a texture... an artful feel to them that you have to really work to get near in Nano Banana. MJ can, but not a fan of MJ.
yeah lucid's brushwork is sick, try using it as a style ref for your nano generations
And their Motion 2.0 video model is great at pulling depth out of complex painting styles.
motion 2 handles those thick layers well, bumping strength to 7 helps the parallax
I do. It just doesn't work well enough. I gave up on the style entirely and had to pivot to near-realism.
tough pivot, maybe try canvas to paint that texture back in without losing the realism
@sweet glade @wild river @fervent ermine @spark oasis I can confirm now all these models will remain available once the old UI goes away
you made it guys! 🔥 😂
nicee thats a relief, kino and anime are too good to lose
please excuse me, won't happen again
yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 🫂 🙏 💖
where's my ping? I was mourning the possible loss of kino!
@hasty root , we won't disable good old models thanks to everyone's intervention.
nicee thats a huge win honestly, would have been a shame to lose them
the system works!
for real, I appreciate you gathering feedback on all the changes.
u tagged wrong erik ;)
too addicted to Nano Banana Pro anyway i forgot these models even exist by now lol
nah it's ok I love being notified about this too ^^
Since when the server logo is just a word?
just today! I got lost trying to come to work 😂
@cursive flicker @hasty root we now need to retrieve the advanced settings with the model option on PC
ahh ok
Take a walk down memory lane while you still can!
very ominous, I'm not sure memory lane is a safe place to be, when you put it that way 😂
sounds more like "memory back alley" lol
It's more like, Memory Lane will soon be closed in preparation for the new and improved Memory Superhighway
memory superhighway gives me a migraine 😂 all those speeding vehicles traversing my synapses
if we can have the option of seeing the old logo again, that would be great...
here on discord? it doesn't let us configure more than one icon, sadly
@devout bridge miniature microchip!
great news ❤️

@polar cave Hey, welcome!
are there any models that will do video to video? I'm thinking about shooting a crane shot, so I have consistent visual flow, and then animate my characters based on the movement of a reference video of people dancing. And wow, I've just read that Seedance 2.0 has been disabled basically everywhere, Hollywood must have shat collective bricks.

Omg who did this rebranding ? Is horrible, send them to jail!!
does that include lowly server moderators who aided and abetted the switch? 😳
Know what? You're right. I was not liking the look but thought that it's their company, they will make changes, hopefully for the better. Anyway, I just ran into the first "OH there's less info here now, I have to do more to get what I want" moment. Previously, changing options shows how many tokens it will cost to generate, now I have to hover my mouse over it for it to show me how many tokens it will now use. Why do companies insist on enshittifying everything, for a cleaner look? You have made it less usable to me, pretty sure im gonna be pulling the plug on my subscription at this rate.
Do share why you think that. Would love to know.

I do agree that the generate button should show the amount you spend without having to hover over it.

Couldn’t agree more. The new logo looks like LEGO
Hey @chrome bobcat, welcome to the Leonardo.Ai community! We're delighted to have you with us. Jump in, explore the server, and feel free to share your thoughts on AI creativity!
happens to me even with the most "sane images" i have in my library lol
Leonardo: It gets better and better, congratulations, the new update is amazing!
Yay, thanks for the positive vibes Ian!
The rebranding should seriously be questioned
Where is the legacy upscaler ??? The new one is totally crap. You had one of the best upsacler on the market and removed it?? Who take these kind of decision? Listen to your community, there are many pro artist/creatives who are using the legacy upscaler, please give back the access to it. It s probably the main reason why I was still using Leo a LOT. Every other tools can be found somewhere else and cheaper :/@cursive flicker
What did they change in this big update??
didn't know you guys were canva
I keep up with whats going on but there is so much
does my canva sub do anything here?
lol aug 2024.. I was driving cross country I guess I missed it
alright in my opinion this new transition it's also thing for me that shouldn't have been removed
the creative upscale
i used it when I first made my account in 2023 and I loved it because of the "stylish" upscale it gave to pics done in models like DreamShaper or Absolute Reality
unfortunately later became restricted to paid users because of high GPU usage (why???), and to be honest and fair, I didn't like the other options of upscale (Refine & Smooth), I loved more the Creative one
and also, a honest question, why the Schedulers like DPM2, Euler a and these others weren't made for free plan users since the beginning? I don't get why they were made paid
then ofc as the new image gen UI with Phoenix and later models arrived by late 2023-2024, the Legacy mode starting to dying slow to today(which is a shame)
I managed to buy myself a paid plan last year just to test these legacy features I wanted to try so bad and yes, my beloved Creative Upscale and finally try the schedulers, only for a couple of months later when it simply was removed (the Creative Upscale). I wanted to use it a lot because I loved it in 2023 and I was a little, idk how to say it when I saw that I couldn't select it anymore because of "Creative Upscale is a paid feature due to it's high GPU usage. Please select another upscale option."
just...why?
and also I used the Legacy Universal Upscaler, which also for me was a easy to go tool for images done on Realtime Canvas and Legacy Mode
and I'm with @high sundial in that matter
why removing it?
I understand that maintaining this whole infrastructure it's a hard task, I know. But I just don't like when features that users loved are just removed in the blink of an eye.
Hey, really appreciate you sharing this. And genuinely, I get where you’re coming from. When something changes and it feels like you now have to “work harder” to get the same info, that’s frustrating.
On the token visibility specifically, we didn’t remove it to hide anything or just to make things look cleaner or prettier. We noticed that having token costs front and centre was actually adding friction to the creative flow. A lot of people, understandably, were min-maxing every action, constantly watching their balance and second-guessing which model or settings to use. That awareness of cost, while practical, was subtly limiting experimentation.
Our goal with the redesign is to make creation feel more fluid and less transactional. Creativity ideally shouldn’t feel like a meter ticking down in real time. That said, we completely understand people want transparency and to be mindful of usage, especially when you’re paying for it. So the info is still there, just not the first thing you see.
Long term, we’d love to get to a place where that cost anxiety disappears entirely, but with the current realities of AI infrastructure, that’s not something we can fully remove yet. This change is a step toward the kind of creative experience we believe AI should feel like.
That said, feedback like this genuinely helps us calibrate. If it’s making the experience worse for you, we want to hear it.
Why in the world did Leonardo AI remove the original upscaling tool. That tool is far better than the newer tool which barely does anything no matter how high the settings are. Bring the original upscaling tool back; and please fix the so called safety features, that more and more do not allow one to create the output one needs. It is getting to the point that I am (I doubt I'm alone in this) going to have to move to another platform.

😮 it's Jachin! Hi!
it takes away from Iconic logo which Leo is famous for. For a moment I was confused about what server it is when switched to another and came back

there is already so much value attached to it already

I miss colorful Leo icon. Pls, bring back. 
same! it looks better.
what is this?? the 60s? come on don't break something it works fine already pff
horrible fonts
Any update on the legacy universal upscaler the one for 30 tokens?
this is just a more bussiness website now. Even the plan names changed. From Artisan to Premium?
