Looking for a little help

LOL, I find it Funny some of the hoops I have to go through... I wanted a headless statue and eventually just edited it myself. I did find a free AI Centaur pic someone left up but it makes me itchy that I have no way to confirm it.

Tell me about it. I saw... things. Things that no man should see
That Artificial Idiot gave me a type of centaur, but umm... The man part was in the rear end.
Oh, and when I added some Negative Prompts, this time I've got two horses that share the same arse...

In such times, I just want to call John Conner and let him enter the "prompts." LOL!

Hey all, I wanted to give a small update.

Financial: The GFM plus 2 very generous private gifts got us through the worst of the financial onslaught. payroll every 2 weeks is still tight every time but we are squeaking by so far. The bills for the 2 hospital stays are rolling in (the uncovered portions) and I am managing them by paying tiny amounts for now. I am going to have my wife do a GFM update and hopefully anything that comes in I can throw at the hospital bills.

Wife's Health: the good news is her strength is slowly returning and there has not been a 3rd episode as of this writing. unfortunately we have not gotten a final diagnosis yet, we are still going with the chronic version of the GBS as most likely. we are making hard choices and doing our best to keep her stress at a manageable level as life keeps throwing us curve balls. our staff has been amazing and her clients have also been wonderful.

My promised Free images: As stated earlier, to put the image files on forge is a lot more work than I thought, so hopefully the Google Drive Link is working for everyone (still have not had a single person confirm its working...** EDIT got a confirmation it works**) I have focused on creating the images and am currently over 470 individual images (each having 3 versions) of the almost 4000 I am planning to do. I am going to put a direct link to the google drive on the Tavern page as I do not know if many people have found the link buried on the first post.

I hope everyone enjoys the images and thank you again for the kind words and support.

I am very sorry to hear what you all are going through; I hope the situation will somewhat improve!

Just remember that in the US, as long as you are paying "something" on each medical bill each month it isn't supposed be sent to collections. So don't let them hound you into paying more than you can afford.

So nice to hear things are getting better for you and your wife, Morenu. Hope you guys will overcome!

And as I check the pictures, more and more they remind me 3.5 ed and they bring me back to golden days.
Thank you.

Thx, we take it one day at a time.

so here is the current Chat GPT "memory" for the bestiary. I am on Demons so that section will be removed once they are done.

This is working very well so far although I am starting to see a lack of variety at times.

Bestiary Project Instructions
User is creating approximately 3,000 Fantasy D&D-style creature images for a Bestiary.
- Images should be in the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition and Dragonlance art styles, inspired by:
Larry Elmore, Jeff Easley, Keith Parkinson, Clyde Caldwell, Daniel R. Horne, Matt Stawicki, and Tyler Jacobson.
- Creatures must be depicted in full-body medieval and habitat-appropriate settings.
- No text or book-like elements should be included in images.

DALL·E Prompt Guidelines
Every prompt must include the following:
"The scene is rendered in the rich, detailed fantasy style of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 2nd Edition and Dragonlance, inspired by the works of Larry Elmore, Jeff Easley, Keith Parkinson, Clyde Caldwell, Daniel R. Horne, Matt Stawicki, and Tyler Jacobson. The full body of the creature is depicted. No text or book-like elements present."

Size Reference Fixes:
- Avoid unintended size exaggerations by comparing creatures to inanimate objects, not humans.

Example reference objects:
- Ancient stone archways, crumbling obelisks, weathered statues, massive ruined doorways, skeletal trees, towering rock formations, collapsed pillars, oversized tombstones, rusted chains, or broken siege weapons.
- Ensure creatures remain properly scaled against their environment.

Demon, Devil, and Daemon Visual Baselines [Daemon section removed due to being finished]

- Demons (Chaotic Evil - Wild Destruction & Corruption)
Highly asymmetrical features (extra limbs, oversized jaws, shifting forms, or mutations).
Bestial or warped monstrous traits (bat wings, barbed tails, oversized claws, fanged maws).
Jagged, organic armor plating (like raw infernal growths).
Chaotic colors (deep reds, purples, blacks, glowing patterns).
Eyes in strange places (extra eyes across limbs, stomachs, or shifting positions).
Permanent expressions of rage, madness, or glee (twisted smiles, snarling fangs, unhinged laughter).
Flames, toxic fumes, or oozing corruption.

- Devils (Lawful Evil - Tyranny & Infernal Order)
Tall, regal, or militarized forms (intimidating, symmetrical, refined).
Sleek, polished, or formal armor (adorned in infernal symbols, tight-fitting).
Deep reds, blacks, and golds (rich, regal colors symbolizing power and authority).
Perfectly symmetrical faces (unnervingly balanced, beautiful yet menacing).
Refined, crown-like horns (swept-back, spiraling elegantly, or forward-facing like a warrior’s).
Bat-like wings, long tails, and sharp claws (refined, never chaotic or mutated).
Infernal weapons and chains (spiked whips, runed swords, burning tridents, glowing contracts).
Eyes that glow with cunning intelligence (bright gold, crimson, or infernal runes).

Special Rules for Unique Beings
- Demon Lords are unique entities, and may have distinct items, features, or characteristics that set them apart.
- Named creatures in brackets (e.g., Elf, Ranger [Loretta]) are unique individuals. Like Demon Lords, they may have personal traits beyond their species' standard.

Compliance with OpenAI's Content Policies
- All prompts must comply with OpenAI's content policies.
- Avoid words or themes that trigger rejection or content filtering.
- Do not include excessive gore, explicit violence, real-world hate symbols, or references that violate OpenAI's guidelines.
- Reword descriptions to maintain the dark fantasy horror aesthetic while staying within policy limits.
- If certain words or themes trigger rejection, they will be adjusted or replaced with OpenAI-friendly alternatives.
- Do not include a list of forbidden words, as OpenAI does not provide one publicly, but instead refine prompts based on previous rejections.

[Tempered7]

I guess that includes everything from shapes to features to colors with special rules and even content policies. "No gore" is well thought.
Checking the latest pictures made since 1st March, they evoke just the right feelings.
I especially checked the centaur again, whatever you did works like magic.

Godspeed, man

[Morenu]

Thx, I will definitely revisit the first half to all of A... thats when I was not use chat GPT and doing free AI pics mostly
