SageBrush: AI Painter

August 28, 2024

Subscribers can now access the new Flux image model! Version 2.6 also includes a frequently requested feature: you can now turn off real-time canvas updates, for when you want to manually generate images rather than having them appear automatically. This will be really helpful for thrifty token savers who would rather fully complete their drawing before spending tokens on image generation. The new Flux model is accessible to subscribers, from the AI settings menu under the top nav. Flux is a high quality model, and takes on average 30 seconds or so to process an image. Please keep in mind that also means that Flux images consume tokens at a much faster rate than the classic SageBrush model. (Token price is displayed next to the clarity/steps slider.) That's why when Flux is enabled, real-time canvas updates are automatically turned off and you'll need to tap the 'generate' button on the AI canvas in order to process images. If you return to the 'classic' image model mode, you can switch real-time updates back on again from the same top nav AI settings menu. The Flux settings may evolve over time, but for now here's some pointers: + ControlNet strength lets you control how much the AI follows your brush strokes. Set all the way up, the AI will do little imagining. All the way down, and the image won't look very much like your drawing. + Img2Img strength is very sensitive, and works best with drawings or input images that are already very detailed. Try turning this all the way down if you're getting AI images that look too similar to your drawing. + Control Style has two modes 'edges' (often called 'canny' in AI Art terminology) and 'depth'. Edges works best for sketches, and depth is good when your source drawing or image is more realistic. Remember that if you're hitting the safety filter a lot, you can tap the seed 'dice' button to randomize the seed. Sometimes that will change the generated image enough not to trigger the filter. You can also try changing your prompt slightly. Looking forward to seeing what you all create!

Enhance! Want to take your AI Art to a new level of detail and resolution? Once you've generated an image, an enhance icon will appear in the top corner. Tap it and follow the onscreen instructions. Enhance will upscale your art to 2048x2048 pixels, and add detail based on how high you set the 'creativity' control. The button will tell you how many tokens will be used (which will vary depending on the amount of 'creativity'.) Depending on the settings and server load, it can take between 30 seconds to a few minutes to enhance – but the results are worth waiting for! Oh, and if you love SageBrush, don't forget to give us a rating and review! And share your work online and let people know you made it in SageBrush!

Styles, ControlNet, and more! Explore a range of new options in the settings menu that will supercharge what you can create in SageBrush. Turn on ControlNet and SageBrush will follow your brush strokes more accurately than ever. And when ControlNet is on, you can crank up the 'prompt strength' without losing the shape of your composition – and gain a ton of imaginative AI detail. Since ControlNet adds an additional AI model to the process, SageBrush will consume tokens slightly faster while enabled. With the new styles available in the settings menu you can quickly experiment with a ton of different looks for your art – from classical drawing styles to solarpunk, emulsion photography, and a whole lot more! These get you to an interesting image very quickly, and work _with_ your prompt – so you can get as creative as you want. Whether you're totally new to prompting, or just want to quickly explore the latent space without having to do a lot of repetitive typing, styles are a lot of fun. And SageBrush now remembers where you left off! Rather than opening up to a default state, SageBrush will remember your prompt, settings, etc – so you can pick back up where you left off. In addition to all the new features, SageBrush's interface got another round of improvement. For those times when you really need the keyboard open, the AI canvas remains visible and the prompt window adapts intelligently to different device orientations. And even though most people would probably never notice, typography and buttons throughout the app got more attention. It's the little things – they add up to a more beautiful experience.

Exciting update: more value for your tokens! The default quality level is now 20% cheaper per generation, so you can draw even longer for the same number of tokens. Image import / Background colors: You can now drag images directly onto the canvas – including from the AI generation window! You can also import from your Photo Library via the new 'layers' menu, as well as quickly set a background fill color. Get farther with fewer brushstrokes! Quality settings: You now have control over the number of quality 'steps' the AI takes in generating an image. The slider will tell you how quality affects token cost. Quality is subjective – lower step counts can sometimes give the best vibe for a particular image! Simpler, cleaner UI: Both light and dark modes received design polish in this update. Iconography that's easier on the eyes, easier to access controls, and a cleaner overall app. Bug fixes: Fixed issues around device rotation messing up imagery, and inconsistency around when tools appear and disappear.
