Seems like HN is having fun with it, not sure I want a 4-year-old coloring any of these: - https://www.coloringsai.com/en/coloring-page/multiple-africa... - https://www.coloringsai.com/en/coloring-page/a-penis-cm406l5... - https://www.coloringsai.com/en/coloring-page/beutiful-girl-i... - https://www.coloringsai.com/en/coloring-page/bloody-inhumane... - https://www.coloringsai.com/en/coloring-page/the-body-of-a-b... -…

Seems like a normal TTP.

This is a fun idea, but whatever version of stable diffusion being used isn’t very prompt adherent so any kind of complex scene or interaction between characters is mostly ignored, which reduces the fun a bit. Whenever I show things like this to my kids they always say something tbat’ll be really hard - like ‘a unicorn riding a princess’ and then everything comes back as princess riding a unicorn and they say ‘this s…

Trope subversion is always difficult since there is naturally so little training data in most checkpoints (SD, XL, etc.) that reverses things like this (mermaid with human legs and fish head, Cerberus with five heads, a piano where natural keys are black and the sharps/flats are white, etc.) Outside of manual control like ControlNets / Inpainting or a custom LoRa, there's not much you can do except "re-roll" hoping y…

I wonder if when language models are better integrated with image generation models it’ll get any better at this. Or is this a fundamental issue that can’t be solved - it’s not like we’re going to add these edge cases to the training data

This is fantastic. Can you share any details of how you created the pictures? I am trying to do illustrations for a childrens book in a similar style (although I want much more detail on the pages) but all my attempts end up being a complete mess. But even if you can't share deets thanks for the inspo!

It is most likely using a Lora - it’s like an add on for stable diffusion that forces a specific style. You can find them ready-made for all sorts of styles - including black and white line art. Or you can also train your own using a few examples of a style you want to use.

Thanks!

Thanks for checking out the app. You're absolutely right, although that's still hard to stop with text input I guess..

I already use OpenAI's moderator tool to block the worst and am working on a blacklist of words to block.

Luckily I still choose the coloring pages for my daughter myself ;

I tried "stegosaurus with giant lollipop", but I got a tyrannosaurus with three stegosaurus legs and stegosaurus spines but no thagomizer and no lollipop: https://imgur.com/a/1EPUm3F . When I tried again it seemed to have frozen. The third try gave me the second tyrannosaurus mutant hybrid, but I did get a giant lollipop.

Thanks for checking out the site!

I'm currently using a cheap model, so there's a good chance the rate limiter will be hit with the traffic from HN going to the site.

I didn't expect it to be a success, but it's being worked on :)

There's a couple of these out there already - but the lack of a sign-up requirement is a nice touch. https://www.coloringbook.ai https://colorbliss.com

I agree, no-signup is really nice, esp. since I'm hesitant to have my kids signup for things, and of course free is nice. That said, if you do want or need to monetize, one idea would be to slap a donation link like 'Buy me a beer' on it. I could see some people being willing to send a few bucks to your daughters' college fund in exchange for infinite coloring pages for their kids. Also, it probably makes sense to ca…

Thanks for thinking along, that's a good idea!

If the costs were to increase enormously, I'm thinking of limiting the generation via machine id, or that the person would have to buy credits or something like that.

Thanks for the CDN tip, will look into it. Currently hosting via Cloudflare, so shouldn't be that hard I guess.. (Famous last words)

Any issue with copyright? Lots of brands named right in your copy.

Thanks for your thoughts. To be honest, I have no idea.

But if I google "Coloring Pages Pokemon", for example, I find dozens/hundreds of websites that are not Pokemon, so to speak.

Neat. What model are you using? https://huggingface.co/artificialguybr/ColoringBookRedmond-V... or one of these https://civitai.com/tag/coloring%20book ?

Thanks for sharing, I am not using any of those. Willing to train my own model in future as well!
