At Civitai, we strive to provide the best possible experience for our users, and that includes how we manage image storage. Currently, images generated on our platform can be kept in the generator for a maximum of 30 days. This limitation is necessary due to the substantial storage costs associated with housing millions of images.
Future Plans for Image Storage
Understanding that many of our users may need to retain their images for longer periods, we are exploring future options to extend storage duration. These options may include:
Vault: Allowing subscribers to keep their generations in their vault for safe keeping.
Buzz extensions: Paying Buzz to keep images for longer
Current Options to Keep Your Images Indefinitely
For those who wish to keep their images indefinitely right now, there are two available methods:
Post Publicly: By posting your images publicly on the site, they will be retained without any time limit.
Download Images: You can download your images directly to your device, ensuring you have permanent access to them.
We appreciate your understanding and support as we work to enhance our services and provide more flexible storage solutions in the near future.
