🥳🎉🎊(celebrating my 1 year anniversary at Civitai)
Hello everyone, as you can see, today marks the 1 year anniversary of the creation of my profile, first of all I want to thank everyone who supports and follows my journey on this site, you really help me a lot to continue doing this, secondly I need to explain some things to you and even some small changes that I will have to make from now on.
Clearly you've noticed that I've started posting models, it's something I've wanted to do for a long time but always lacked that extra motivation, until at the beginning of this month I saw that I was going to complete 1 year of Civitai and I got up the courage to do it. So far I've made three models, I think they're good but I still have to improve, I'm still inexperienced in this area of training LoRAs, so your feedback is very important for me to evolve in this as well as in the generation of images, however, I have to say three things about this:
The first is that, as I said in the last article in March, I'm a bit tired of posting images, so much so that I've reduced their frequency a lot since then, although I think I've still produced a good amount, but it will probably be reduced even more, because now I want to change the focus of my profile to producing models and training LoRAs. Honestly, I'm finding it more enjoyable and interesting to do this than to generate images, it's much more rewarding and even less stressful for me, so I've decided that from now on it's going to be a kind of “new era” for me at Civitai. It doesn't mean that I'll never post image galleries again, but the focus will be different.
The second thing is a sequel to the first, with the main theme being the creation of models, I'm going to need a lot of ideas, I have some in my mind already to be made, but probably at some point it will end and I'll need too many. So, starting today, I'll be opening up free requests for models that I can make, I'll post a list of rules for what you can ask for in a link below the text that I'll post later, officially any of you can suggest what to make as a model for me following the rules, let's see if that works out. The creation time will probably be 2 to 4 days, because I don't have all the time in the world to do this, and my ideas will clearly be prioritized first, I can also lock requests at any time if I need to, this will be announced on the main profile page.
The last thing I need to say is about the “1-year special” that was on my mind. For a long time, I've wanted to do a special session of posts to celebrate my first anniversary here on this site, and although today, May 21, is the creation of my account, I only started posting images on the May 24th, which is actually the day I consider that I really started doing things here. So between those days it was supposed to be a bomb of posts, I was planning to do something like 20 to 30 posts in those 4 days, with different themes, high quality and a large number of images, around 500. But then I realized that this would be crazy, it wouldn't be worth it, I didn't have so many good ideas and it would cause me more stress and regret, plus it would cost me A LOT of buzz and you probably wouldn't even like it that much, it would get boring and massive after the seventh post.
Therefore, even though this special went wrong and I couldn't provide you with a worthy 1-year celebration, I thought it best to do this article, explain these things, and post templates letting you make requests of me, and if you want to suggest something you can do so in the comments. Once again I thank you all for this year, I hope you have understood everything, the posts will continue for a few more days but by the beginning of next month the new methodology will have started here. I hope I haven't forgotten anything, so that's it, see you later 👋
