I have been using Fotor for sometime now, both to generate and edit images, however it has some drawbacks. The browser version does some things better than the iOS app, yet they are glitchy depending on which browser you are using. The desktop version also functions differently than the mobile version. All the glitchiness and inconsistency is making me want to look into other alternatives for AI based generation and editing before I renew my subscription. Thanks in advance! EDIT: I couldn’t find anything quite equivalent to Fotor, so I reupped with them. Flaws aside, I greatly enjoy the app. I also of course use other AI generation software (and will check out these suggestions) and a more robust editing suite for my real photos.
Can you run locally ? Unfortunately, I feel like next year it won’t be a thing for commoners, Stable diffusion 1.5 works well with a gaming GPU, but feel like that XL requires a high-end GPU even by today’s standard, and I guess that next versions will requires professional grade workstation with multiple GPU. If 1.5 is fine, run it at home.
Online, I use getimg.ai, the main reason is that it runs XL and I can buy credit packgare rather than a monthly subscription
Still online, Bing image creator includes DALL-E 3 and has some free generation each days
I heard good thing about vast.ai a GPU rental service, but I haven’t tried it yet. Unlike the others it’s more “rent a PC to generate images rather than an online generator”
Just to clarify with Bing, you have unlimited free generation, the tokens are just for priority speed.

The way chatgpt refines an image through a conversation makes me wish I had money to spend on it. Bing chat sort of does that but not as well. I find i get better results by just writing and editing prompts in Bing Creator.

Wait, which GOT are you using? Mine always says it’s unable to make pictures.

I just signed up. I was immediately roadblocked by wanting to make images of real people and characters. I should have reread your post first.

Interestingly, I reupped with Fotor, and they invited me to join a focus group Zoom meeting. So I’m doing that tomorrow. Could be interesting!

Honestly my limited needs have been easily met by Bing if you’re fine with the Microsoft factor.
