stable-diffusion-webui VS cupscale

* 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.

I would love to be able to have a native stable diffusion experience, my rx 580 takes 30s to generate a single image. But it does work after following https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/wiki...

I got this up and running on my windows machine in short order and I don't even know what stable diffusion is.

But again, it would be nice to have first class support to locally participate in the fun.

In Auto1111, that just uses Image.blend. :)

I used SDXL in automatic1111 webui for both images. Now that I think about it, the procedure I described was how I made this one, but the one that looks like an illustration was done in two steps. I used the canny ControlNet as I said for the outer part of the logo to preserve the shape of the fonts, but I had to turn it off for the boot to give SDXL leeway to add detail and make it look more like a boot.

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.

If you want to do more, there's chaiNNer and CupScale. You need to download an AI model to use those. There are a lot of anime/cartoon models out, so pick one that you like from here. (Note: Upscaly doesn't support these custom models.)

I'm not 100% sure how it holds up against topaz, but I've used cupscale (a gui for ESRGAN) to upscale most of my stuff. Its free (https://github.com/n00mkrad/cupscale) and you can find a million different ESRGAN models which are focused on different kinds of images (https://upscale.wiki/wiki/Model_Database).

Now upscaling isn't hard to do by itself, but the setup can be difficult. As I said earlier, ERSGAN is the preferable way to do it. (https://github.com/n00mkrad/cupscale) Cupscale is my preferred tool for doing it this way. (https://www.topazlabs.com/gigapixel-ai) Gigapixel is another option that's easier for newcomers, but may not produce as good of results. They even have a free trial if you want to demo the tool.

I use cupscale for upscaling things. Allows chaining models and handles video.

For local there's cupscale and chainner
