ComfyUI VS sd-webui-lobe-theme

The non standard licensing puts me off in contributing or using this. It is frustrating how the phrase opensource has been diluted in the AI/ML community. ComfyUI has a GPL license [1] while this project uses this [2]. I honestly don't know where I stand since this is a legal document using non-standard phrasing to describe how the rights around the source code.

This is a project that uses a custom license with less rights provided than the ComfyUI project it self-describes as improving. Am not sure the title is reflective of the project.

* LLaVA model: I'll add more documentation. You are right Llava could not generate images. For image generation I don't have immediate plans, but checkout these projects for local image generation.

Check out ComfyUI for a much more advanced and open source version of this.

I use Stable Diffusion family models for innovative art products.

On a small scale, you have to professionalize ComfyUI’s development. My PR to make it installable and to make a plugin ecosystem that makes sense should not be sitting unmerged (https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI/pull/298).

On a medium scale, CLIP is holding you back. I would eagerly buy a 48GB card to accommodate a batch size 1, gradient checkpointed LoRA-trainable model with T5 for conditioning. I want PixArt-a or DeepFloyd/IF with the SDXL dataset and training. I get I can achieve so much with SDXL on 24GB, including just barely a fine tuning, I understand the engineering decisions here, but it’s too weak on prompts.

On a large scale, I’m willing to spend a little money up front. In those conditions you can be far more innovative, you don’t have to make everything for $0. Shane Carruth didn’t make Primer for $0. I’m sure you’ve seen this movie, you get how astoundingly good it is. But he still spent something. He spent only slightly more than an RTX 6000 Ada.

Innovators have budgets. It’s still worth releasing the most powerful possible model for expensive hardware, this is why everyone is talking about Mixtral, but it’s especially true of visual art.

It's litegraph.js [1] and seems to be the only lib they include in /web [2] :

It's possibly you might get a later version of Comfy working, but I had no success with this method and the 1st Sept version of Comfy. The older versions are here under Assets... https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI/releases

That said, please do learn coding and don't get discouraged when somebody says to learn PyTorch or recommends using a Jupiter notebook with no further information on how to translate the skill into images. I would highly recommend some short term goals. Get your feet wet by taking apart the UIs. The comfy API documentation is here and the A1111 API documentation is here. There is a difference in completeness, welcome to programming. Writing nodes or plugins is also a good way to jump into this world. Custom wildcard logic might be very attractive to you if you aren't the type that want to deal with a nested file structure to simulate logic.

For example ComfyUI can simply be downloaded and run using the portable version (https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI/releases/download/latest/ComfyUI_windows_portable_nvidia_cu121_or_cpu.7z) if your not comfortable using GIT etc.

upscayl is very approachable, but lacked many features i needed. i ended up using https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui after upscaling became part of my regular workflow, but for someone who just needs a few images enhanced, it's an ideal tool.

For the Git alternative, simply right-click on the location you want to put the Stable Diffusion and select “Git Bash Here”, then paste this on the CLI: git clone https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui

ComfyUI is similar to Houdini in complexity, but immensely powerful. It's a joy to use.

There are also a large amount of resources available for it on YouTube, GitHub (https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI_examples), reddit (https://old.reddit.com/r/comfyui), CivitAI, Comfy Workflows (https://comfyworkflows.com/), and OpenArt Flow (https://openart.ai/workflows/).

I still use AUTO1111 (https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui) and the recently released and heavily modified fork of AUTO1111 called Forge (https://github.com/lllyasviel/stable-diffusion-webui-forge).

Seems like an interesting project. Regarding the name, is there permission to use something so similar to AUTOMATIC1111 [1]?

> Diffusers will Cuda out of memory/perform very slowly for huge generations, like 2048x2048 images, while Auto 1111 SDK won't.

Do we have some numbers on this? I have seen AUTOMATIC1111 fall-over whilst using only half the available of GPU VRAM - there seems to be some weirdness where it tries to allocate before de-allocating the last batch or something.

> You can use any of the 6 compatible RealEsrgran models/weights with our RealEsrgran pipeline for upscaling images. Here are the model ids:

I've previously had trouble trying to use AUTOMATIC1111 upscalers, it seems like it needs more GPU VRAM than just generating the image already upscaled.

You might be thinking of Fooocus: https://github.com/lllyasviel/Fooocus

The Stable Diffusion web interface that got a lot of people's attention originally was Automatic1111: https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui

Fooocus is definitely more beginner friendly. It does a lot of the prompt engineering for you. Automatic1111 has a ton of plugins, most notably ControlNet which gives you fine grained control over the images, but there is a learning curve.

Make it into a stable diffusion server!

There's no link version, you have to run it locally. You install it from here
