Hacker News comments
Article on 'Opendream', a layer-based UI for Stable Diffusion
- Some users suggest building Stable Diffusion features into existing image editors such as Gimp, Photoshop, Krita, and Figma, which already have layered, non-destructive features
- First-generation Stable Diffusion frontends have a particular design philosophy, and it is interesting that new tools such as Opendream and ComfyUI challenge this approach
- Some users wonder where to find the model used in the model_ckpt field and its information
- There are concerns about how Opendream's features compare with other tools such as automatic1111, which is somewhat complex but looks more capable
- Users are interested in the possibility of training a model on images with an alpha channel for automatic masking, and in whether the tool uses the context of other visible layers in generation
- There are questions about the possibility of adding SD XL support and whether users can add layers with their own images
- Users are excited about the potential of this technology, especially for creating comics and animation
- There are questions about whether Opendream supports LoRa or will in the near future
- If Opendream can handle LoRAs, some users expressed interest in trying it
