"what's it like to use nightshade/glaze?"

so based on my own experience I thought I'd make this more transparent since I know a lot of people hesitate to take action on some things if they do not know Exactly what happens. it's me i'm people. So;

Nightshade takes about 30 minutes on its fastest setting. The end result tends to look like mild jpeg artifacting, very slightly creased paper, or just brush texturing. Looking at it normally, it is undetectable. Glaze is very visually similar, given the strategy, except that Glaze's longest time setting is 5 minutes.

You put in a file, select how much you want it affected and for how long you want it to render. For Nightshade, you also attach a tag to it, that way AI finds what it's looking for with an associated word. You select a folder for the final result to save to, then hit run.

It takes a lot of GPU/CPU. The fans on my laptop sound a bit like I'm running Minecraft, and it refuses to run if you have too many programs open. I could run Youtube and Nightshade at the same time, but Youtube did Not like it. Best to just take a break while you let it do its thing. Run Nightshade before you go out or something.

It does NOT like transparent png backgrounds. Makes me wonder how AI does with 'em. Anyways, running a backgroundless drawing through Glaze and Nightshade respectively makes it turn out like this:

creasing effect is more noticeable, and it adds strange blocky black and white backgrounds to it. If you want good results for your time, be that less than 1 minute or 180 minutes, consider getting rid of the transparency.

I would post a before and after picture of a Nightshaded piece but of course, I would like to post exclusively poison on this site.

As one last note, it took me a lot of effort to find where you're actually supposed to download these tools, so Glaze is here and Nightshade is here. Overall I highly recommend using them if you can. Don't let AI run you off of your sites: run the AI out yourself.

Discovery!

People using Glaze/Webglaze! I have made a discovery. Inputting a png produces dramatically better results than inputting a jpg.

Here's why, confirmed by Glaze lead: Glaze only works on pngs, so it converts to a png anyway regardless of what you put in. After, it will convert back to the file format you input (like a jpg), and likely uses whatever default compression method to do so. So you end up with compression on compression, and it creates some nasty results.

Tonight I was trying to Glaze this majority-red work (which we all know gets destroyed by compression because of the color) and was gutted by how absolutely terrible it looked. Like saving a quality 3 jpg in Photoshop, honestly. I'm all for giving up *some* quality and ability to discern small details in favor of the protection of Glaze, but this was too much. Crisp details were entirely lost when I got it back. I was lamenting the fact that I might have to just not Glaze this work at all. Since you can't really dial back the intensity for webglaze anymore (it's medium or high, or default, which selects for you), I decided to try putting a png through. Which came out WAY better?

Then I put another one through to be sure, and had the same (better) results. And one more for good measure, all of which produced better results than their jpg counterparts.

So my workflow moving forward will be high quality png into webglaze, then convert to jpg on my own to save quality as much as possible. P.S. if you want to see the work I included here for reference, it's here.

What did you mean that glaze doesn't work on your art style? /gen

the trouble with glaze is it's supposed to hide it's patterns in the detail of the image, but i have a more cartoon/anime influenced art style with larger swaths of flat color or no detail that the patterns stand out against, so it's just... Visible.

(glazed vs unglazed. it really messed up her face in particular)

also sometimes i send images to webglaze and i just... never get anything back?? so instead i've decided to start uploading much lower quality artwork with bigger watermarks. I think i've read that AI favors large, high-quality PNG files, so if you upload smaller resolution art with a bit of jpg Crust you're less likely to be stolen from, or if you are you're going to mess with the output a little lmao.

#ask #pizza-feverdream #webglaze #tldr if you dont have any glaze storebought (jpg compression) is fine #havent gotten to mess with webglaze as much as i'd like because like i said i dont always get something back at all but thats my findings

Gentle reminder to fellow artists to please Glaze or Nightshade your work before posting online. Glaze even has a web browser version for those who do not have sufficiently powerful PCs or who work on mobile devices like iPads.

You can find it as “WebGlaze” from the University of Chicago, though you may have to sign up with an email address before you can use it.

There isn’t a lot we can do when companies make a target of our output, the best we can do is protect our work with watermarks and tools like Glaze. It may not be a perfect solution, but it at least prevents genAI from mimicking your style (which is the big selling point of these scummy generators)

I’m seeing so many people posting about glaze and nightshade and webglaze all being difficult to access and how frustrating that is which is valid!!

The answer is Cara!!! They partnered with Glaze and have their own web browser for running it and it doesn’t require jumping through hoops to gain access like WebGlaze. all you need is to make an account and BAM you have access. The one drawback is that they don’t have the bandwith to do it quickly so it can take a couple hours, but it doesn’t kill your computer to do so!

Here’s the link and i wish you all a happy glazing and ai ruining❤️

Also to opt out of tumblr forking over your content to train ai, you have to scroll past settings down to the bottom and click Visibility. It took me ages to find it as all the posts i found saying where to find it said it was in blog settings. Kinda feels like they’re intentionally making it hard to find…

I still have 5 webglaze invites I could hand out from my superuser account (but also I'm sure if I go bother the team they'll give me more). If anybody wants access to the online version of Glaze give me a shout!

I might be late to this but there are actually ways for artists to protect their art online from AI artists and users from feeding their hard-work into AI software using WebGlaze or Nightshade.

The first video perfectly explains this better than I can but basically Glazing your art DEFENDS your art from being fed through software, by producing a very messy and incoherent picture. Whereas Nightshade actually POISONS the AI software and Model over a set of time to exposure to Nightshade.

It’s definitely worth giving it a shot, so please defend and protect your work from bastards online which use your work to profit off it! <3

PLEASE REBLOG THIS POST! WE CAN TRY AND KILL OFF AI FROM STEALING FROM ACTUAL HARD-WORKING ARTISTS!

forget twitter, apartheid clyde is also making a deal with midjourney. your art won't be safe there

Thanks anon. Sadly I feel mine (and everyone's) art will not be save anywhere online, that's why the only option for now is using glaze with nightshade and/or artshield before posting on any social media....

But yeah, twitter is going down the drain veeeery fast thanks to apartheid clyde u_u
