Otherwise nice video Oli!

After playing around with comfyui, forge, foocus, etc I installed A111. So much happier with it.

Skill issue

xD

lol I wouldn’t mind a better front end. But I use it thru Stability AI which is a nice mixed interface

@@shaiona UI issue

Why would you assume that people using a piece of software feel superior? Maybe people using ComfyUI just prefer it for practical reasons, just like it's practical for you to use Forge.

@@AB-wf8ekNo need to get caught in the weeds. I think what he's saying is that ultimately Comfy will be limited to a small group of people and won't be adopted by the mainstream due to it being impractical for most users.

Yeah noone wants struggle to make pictures of cats after a long day. We want our cats now.

@dogondeity Node editing is in everything from Blender to Houdini. Even in video editing, there's Nuke and Resolve. Most people don't use those software, but it doesn't mean node editing isn't practical. What you're talking about is popularity. Most people use Adobe.

You can get some pretty amazing results using different models and LORAs. I've even been able to get interesting effects like lens smears, light leaks, motion blurs, and film grain. I've also found Fluxtapose can unlock a lot of creative abilities, and these new controlnet/redux models only expand the possibilities.

@@kittendumb4128 works fine on my 3060Ti 8gb vram with 32gb system ram. Generates the same as a regular flux image.

to clarify - most SD flux and models loras all through this workflow - always focuses on ONE person - looking forward and a scene of one person. not slice of life stuff I like making or actual realistic moments between individuals

Calling Flux Redux ‘trash’ is such an overreach. This tool is state-of-the-art for generating high-quality image variations and restyling with flux. Sure, no tool is perfect, but dismissing something without pointing out specific flaws feels more like a hot take than a genuine critique.

@@Darkwing8707 It's trash. You can champion trash if you want to.

Yes you can just get 8steps flux in CivitaAI you can easily run it

Try looking up Flux Dev NF4, which is a quantized model that claims to run on as little as 6GB. I can't vouch for it though, since I haven't tried it myself.

@@AB-wf8ek thanks i will look at it..

ComfyUI's node-based approach isn't just complexity for complexity's sake - it offers crucial advantages for serious AI image generation work. While Automatic1111/Forge are excellent for straightforward workflows, ComfyUI's granular control allows for techniques that simply aren't possible in simpler interfaces. The visual workflow also makes it much easier to experiment, troubleshoot, and share exact generation settings with others. Rather than having to document a complex series of steps, you can simply share a workflow file that captures your entire process. This is invaluable for collaboration and learning from others in the community. Yes, there's a steeper learning curve, but that complexity serves a purpose. It's similar to how Photoshop offers vastly more capabilities than simpler photo editors, even though many users might only need basic features. For those who want to push the boundaries of what's possible with AI image generation, ComfyUI's power and flexibility are absolutely worth the investment in learning it. The beauty of having multiple tools is that users can choose what works best for their needs. While simpler interfaces are perfect for many users, dismissing ComfyUI's advantages overlooks its genuine value for more advanced use cases.

Yea, I think Flux just takes a different approach. I was actually able to get some cool results unsampling multiple images with Fluxtapose and then masking the latents together to create melded compositions. I think it's an unfortunate product of the marketing, but so many people come to these tools thinking that it doesn't take creative imagination and expect everything spoon fed to them on a silver platter.

did you download the image and drag it into comfy for the workflow? make sure your comfy is updated. make sure your flux and clip loader are set to the correct models and modes

Our brains are wired to process and evaluate new information constantly. When we encounter something unfamiliar, the very act of parsing and understanding it engages our neural pathways and strengthens our cognitive abilities. By demanding that everything be pre-digested with an introduction, we're actually robbing ourselves of valuable learning opportunities. Think about how children learn - they dive into new experiences without needing a roadmap. They explore, question, and piece things together naturally. This capacity doesn't disappear in adulthood; we just sometimes forget to embrace it. Our pattern-recognition abilities and contextual understanding allow us to quickly determine relevance and value, even without explicit signposting. Rather than needing everything spoon-fed to us, we should trust in our natural ability to learn, adapt, and make connections. This is how we've evolved as a species, and it's how we continue to grow as individuals.

It's in the title. The video is about using Flux Redux. He even explains in the first sentence that the video is about a new Flux Redux Advanced node. The amazing thing about watching videos online these days is that you can easily skip ahead to quickly see what a video is about.

If it’s on Hugging Face you might need to accept access on the model card page first. It’s also on CivitAI.

Non possum vel non download.

It’s on CivitAI.

You have to agree to the provisions before you press download!

you would think so, but no. it creates a graded image

No, not for photos. This only applies to Videos (raw log format). A raw image looks (by default) just like the same image as jpg.

👋 hi

not sure, but that sounds like you need to update your GPU or rent a online server with a good GPU

please google "comfyui manager" and follow the instructions to install it. it's really easy :)
