Greetings, Civitans! It happened that I've won some Buzz, and now I'm willing to share it with my followers and their friends.
I've come up with an idea for a contest so I can both learn from you all and ignite your creative powers. I have specific interests when it comes to AI art, I use a limited amount of tools, and I'm going to be the only judge, so consider the fact that this is going to be rather subjective.
Here are the rules:
You will have to use FLUX or Fluxmania and at least one style LoRA.
Post your images on Civitai up until 18 July and leave a link to the images in the comments here, or there.
You can submit at most 2 images.
Here are the judgment criteria:
The image has to catch the eye and present itself, I'm not looking for subtlety this time
The image has to convey some message or idea, as opposed to just showing a character, an object, or a place (try to stay away from politics though)
The more text, the worse. Single words or short phrases are allowed, to give a hint on the meaning of the image
The prompt is better to be rather long, but I'm going to check how much of it actually affected the image. This is where the master aspect is going to shown and this is what will determine the winner
Speaking of the winner... Here are the prizes:
1ST PLACE gets 6000 Buzz and an imaginary cone-shaped crown of The Master Prompter
2nd PLACE gets 3000 Buzz and a painful realization of not being the one
3rd place gets 1500 Buzz and a nice refreshing feeling of "whatever, man, thanks for the buzz"
The rest of what I got from the VIDU contest, including the prize and tips, will be spread among the participants in a chaotic manner.
So... how's the deal? If you know somebody who might be interested in participating, let them know!
Remember that any contest is a gamble, so good luck and have fun!
UPDATE 1: 2000 Buzz from kftiger goes right into the prize pool. Thanks for the support!
UPDATE 2: Turns out you can't upload images to the collection directly. You can leave a link to your images here or THERE
