I originally meant to send this one to re-education, because it doesn't behave... But time has passed, and I've moved on to something else. Popcorn brain - guilty!
And then I thought - hey, you're all creative people, you can handle it.
There are two reasons it's a bit difficult. First, that I stupidly picked "kaleidoscApe" as a trigger, and the AI interprets that as "kaleidoscOpe misspelled, so it throws all sorts of stuff in there, unless you crank it up to 2 or thereabouts - depends on the checkpoint. The other reason is that it was made to be weird. The training images are 30-something photos, I took into one of those old-fashioned kaleidoscopes with a glass marble at the end. So, if left to its own devices, it just creates colored kaleidoscope effects with narrow DOF and a heavy vignette. But mix it with other styles, and you should get something interesting.
If you're still reading, it's pretty awesome with clouds...
Anyway - have fun, it's free!
