Hello everyone, I hope you're having a wonderful Tuesday!
Given what's happening to Kittl, I already got a MyDesigns Pro account and it's fine, but I also started doing a bit of investigative work on AI image generators that work for free and that hopefully don't share the images with other users. Below are a few I found:
-- Gemini from Google - not great but sometimes comes up with surprising results
-- Stablediffusionweb.com - pretty good, but you have to be super clear and concise as prompts must be under 500 characters. You get 10 credits per day, so you can generate 10 images. - Edit - there is a small watermark in the bottom right corner of every image with the URL of the website, so you'll have to crop the image or erase the watermark. -- huggingface.co/Jovie/MidJourney - this is a model based on Flux Dev but that generates images similar to what MidJourney would; it takes quite a long time to generate images, though, sometimes up to 10 mins -- huggingface.co/aleksa-codes/flux-ghibsky-illustration - technically it's for generating images in the style of Ghibsky (think Howl's Moving Castle, My Neighbor Totoro, typical Japanese style anime illustrations but with a slight industrial air) but I've used it for all sorts and it works just fine Please note that for the HuggingFace models you will have to create a free account - the only model that works without one us this last Schnell one.
Of course, you will have to upscale these images in something afterwards, but I think they come in handy if you run out of credits 😄.
And finally, I don't know if I am allowed to share this here, but there's a cool website called promptlibrary.org with prompts for MidJourney, which you can ofc adapt for any AI image generator you use. Hope this helps and if the prompt site goes against the rules, I can take the post down! If anyone has any other suggestions for free AI image generators, please leave them in the comments - I would really appreciate that!!
