Hello all. I first discovered Stable Diffusion in September 2023, via really good art on someone’s Twitter account. I later found out he had a Discord group with remote access to his computer, so us users on there could dabble. Then I realized that the real magic was what he was doing after text-to-image and inpainting, and I wanted to do that myself. I bought a new computer since then and installed Automatic1111. I’ve dabbled a bit, but keep getting overwhelmed by all the options and constantly new stuff coming out. I need some structure and education, so I’m looking forward to diving into the courses. A friend recommended this site to me. I have plenty of downloaded art that I like with meta data (considering them partial recipes for the future) and I’m ready to start creating on my own 🙂
