⚄︎ Perchance

This is a Lemmy Community for perchance.org, a platform for sharing and creating random text generators.

Feel free to ask for help, share your generators, and start friendly discussions at your leisure :)

This community is mainly for discussions between those who are building generators. For discussions about using generators, especially the popular AI ones, the community-led Casual Perchance forum is likely a more appropriate venue.

See this post for the Complete Guide to Posting Here on the Community!

Rules

1. Please follow the Lemmy.World instance rules.

2. Be kind and friendly.

  • Please be kind to others on this community (and also in general), and remember that for many people Perchance is their first experience with coding. We have members for whom English is not their first language, so please be take that into account too :)

3. Be thankful to those who try to help you.

  • If you ask a question and someone has made a effort to help you out, please remember to be thankful! Even if they don't manage to help you solve your problem - remember that they're spending time out of their day to try to help a stranger :)

4. Only post about stuff related to perchance.

  • Please only post about perchance related stuff like generators on it, bugs, and the site.

5. Refrain from requesting Prompts for the AI Tools.

  • We would like to ask to refrain from posting here needing help specifically with prompting/achieving certain results with the AI plugins (text-to-image-plugin and ai-text-plugin) e.g. "What is the good prompt for X?", "How to achieve X with Y generator?"
  • See Perchance AI FAQ for FAQ about the AI tools.
  • You can ask for help with prompting at the 'sister' community Casual Perchance, which is for more casual discussions.
  • We will still be helping/answering questions about the plugins as long as it is related to building generators with them.

6. Search through the Community Before Posting.

  • Please Search through the Community Posts here (and on Reddit) before posting to see if what you will post has similar post/already been posted.

Unfortunately, my current rig can't handle SD, so I was happy to stumble across Perchance.org

I am familiar with prompt writing and SD functionality due to using other web based generators...

Some of the features I miss are shown in the attached. Obviously I wouldn't expect all of these to be implemented here, but perhaps this could be used for some ideas?

These 3 are definitely handy:

The cfg (guidanceScale) is a LOT more sensitive (less granular?) here. On that site, I regularly went as high as 12 with excellent results. Here, things start to get pretty bad above 8 or 9.

gfp (GFPGAN) works excellently. Only a setting of 1 or 2 is used. I notice here, that if you generate a full body pic (or not even that sometimes), faces get pretty melty.

The Variant Seed thing is pretty neat - it lets you use a percentage of a seed image.

Whatcha think @[email protected] ?

I think the gfp thing will become unnecessary soon so it's probably not worth me adding, but in the meantime you can download the image and use the gpf model separately e.g. here: https://replicate.com/tencentarc/gfpgan

For the "variant seed", I think this is basically "image-to-image"? I.e. choose a starting image and a prompt, and choose the "strength" of the image (i.e. amount of random noise added to it). So basically it's like adding an image prompt alongside the normal text prompt. If that's what you're referring to here, then yep Perchance will have that within the next few weeks hopefully. Currently waiting on a bug to be fixed in 'upstream' code that I'm using.

Unfortunately gfgpan is Nvidia only. I'm still using a Radeon card. =/

The link I shared is an online tool, so it doesn't matter what your local GPU is

Ah thanks.. I didn't see the login.. thought it was just a github project for download.

Controlling the steps/iters might be nice but I know higher steps/iters will hog the server since it will take longer time to generate the image.
