Stable Diffusion | Midjourney

[nelsonic]

Trying to find (or ML-generate) images to explain the aesthetic of the Sunroom dwyl/home#14
I can't adequately explain it all in words, but here are a few keywords:

• underground
• garden
• forest
• overgrown
• reclaimed
• nature
• greenhouse

Prompt

Tried to submit the following prompt on Midjourney:

underground concrete building overgrown with many types of plants and trees midday sun in the style of last of us

But got the following annoying issue:

Feels like a one-off $10 (month) for 200 generations is perfectly reasonable:

Tried submitting a simplified query on the Stable Diffusion demo:

https://labs.openai.com/e/5opK54F9Kn82ItEfwwMB0OYQ

concrete greenhouse reclaimed by nature plants forest ...

eventually it errored and I decided I'd had enough:

@LuchoTurtle how far did you get with running Stable Diffusion on your PC?

[LuchoTurtle]

I had to format my PC and had to reinstall Stable Diffusion alongside it.
I have a rough "guide" on what and how I've installed in https://github.com/enlevo/posters. I've followed these steps to get it all working on my machine.

The last time I tried a hand at generating an image, was last week and, along with many options, came up with this:

I wish I could give you the exact prompt (both positive and negative) now, but I don't have the piece of software installed on my Mac, so I can't give it to you right now.
The trick is giving specific prompts (like camera lens, cinematographic settings...) and using negative prompts.
I recommend giving these two links a look:

• https://stable-diffusion-art.com/prompt-guide/#Process_of_building_a_good_prompt
• https://github.com/Dalabad/stable-diffusion-prompt-templates

I don't personally use Midjourney because it's no longer free, so I run everything locally with Stable Diffusion. The output might be a bit different.

Thanks for sharing the links, very insightful. 👌
What hardware would I need to run stable diffusion @home ? 💭

[LuchoTurtle]

Installing AUTO1111's Stable Diffusion Web GUI (pretty much the de facto way of getting it work on your machine) has instructions for both Nvidia and AMD GPUs.

I have a 1080Ti on my PC, a fairly old GPU, and it runs fine. So you could probably get it working on your Mac laptop, I wager.

OK. cool. will try that laters. 👨‍💻
