2. Creating Your Own Image Model

Step 1: Navigate to the "Create a New Image App" Section

Look for the "Create a New Image App" section at the top of the left column. This is where you will name your app and upload images to train your custom model.

Step 2: Name Your Image App

Enter a name for your app in the "Your App's Name" input field. Be creative! Examples include:

  • "PetPortraitPainter"
  • "StarryNightGenerator"
  • "MyFamilyPortraitStyle"

There are no strict rules for naming. Choose something fun and memorable.

Step 3: Upload Images to Train the Model

You can upload images using one of the following methods:

  • Upload a ZIP File: Click the "Upload ZIP" button. Select a `.zip` file containing multiple images. Maximum upload size is 10 MB.
  • Upload Individual Images: Click the "Upload Images" button to choose one or more images directly from your device.

Step 4: Preview Your Uploaded Images

Once uploaded, your images will appear in the preview area below the upload options. Double-check that your uploads match your vision for the model.

Step 5: Start the Model Training

After uploading your images, click "Start Creating App". The training process will begin, and a progress indicator will appear. Once finished, a notification will confirm that your new app/model is ready to use.

Importing Models Made By Other Users

To use an image app made by other users you need to copy its address.

Step 1: Copy existing app’s address.

  • a) If you want to use the image app made by other users on this website and shared in apps gallery, you can copy its address (it would look like e.g. galadriel:42d770944cf35d8da832c1ef80f8bd84cbc557548f8d2f98de831a652d134d16) via the copy icon on each app’s card.
  • b) If you would like to import a third-party app, please copy its full HTTPS address that ends with format=SafeTensor. For example, the link to the “Vividizer” app by Krawuzzn @civit.ai would be: https://civitai.com/api/download/models/742813?type=Model&format=SafeTensor

Step 2: Navigate to the "Import New App" Section in the right column.

Step 3: Enter the App’s Details

  • Model Name: Choose any name you want for the imported app.
  • Model Address: Paste the app’s address in the "App’s Address" field.
