Vibe-transfer archive? (and a poll!)
- Yes, please! That looks cool! 8
- Nah, not for me. 0
I've started experimenting with making a community driven vibe-transfer archive, where anyone can drop their naiv4vibes and make them available on the page.
These files contain four different things:
The actual image used to create the vibe (used for if you change the parameters and a new vibe needs to be encoded).
A thumbnail image that is displayed one the vibe is added to the image generator.
An encoding of the actual vibe that the image generator uses.
Some metadata for the generator about parameters.
With this I've managed to create a very basic proof of concept that does the following:
Allows you to upload a .naiv4vibe-file
The image is stripped (for copyright reasons, storage concerns, and other legal matters, like if people try to use it to upload images illegal in my country)
The thumbnail is stripped (for above reasons)
Everything else is stored in a database.
A new image is generated using the NovelAI-API (I need to have this greenlit by NovelAI first, since automatic generation is against the TOS). This is to keep things SFW and show what it looks like.
Then when you download the vibe file from me it pieces together the following:
For image, a very generic white square is used to make the download small. Could use the generated image, but it wouldn't really work to keep the vibe.
The encoding(s) are added to the file.
A custom thumbnail is added to show what it is (the name of the file, the name of the uploader, and so on to show where the vibe came from)
The above proof of concept is working as of right now. The presentation is just very generic while testing it out. I can drag and drop and it does everything as described above.
Would this type of vibe-gallery, be something you're interested in? It would take me a few weeks/a month to get it to be where I want it, to make it fit in with the rest of the site, etc. But if enough people think this is a good idea, I will go ahead with it.
Feel free to comment, this is very much in its inception still, and I'm very malleable.
