Anyone use some some of the AI art programs / sites. I think a lot of them use Midjourney / Stable Diffusion.

Anyway, I was wondering if we could spruce up the player art using some of these site.

I have heard about Midjourney as a side hustle. I will take a look and get back to you. If we can lock in an overall desired avatar style, possibilities for player avatars are exciting.

Also might be fun to think about expansion to new skins for the Hardwood pages, like we have 2 options right now.

2 options? Really only one, right?

Yes, 1.

Have you given any consideration to displaying portraits instead of the current action pictures?

Players in suits and ties are common on university hoops roster websites.

Team colors on the necktie, diagonal pattern. And then, variety comes in the eyes, ears, noses, face shape, eyebrows, facial hair, hairstyles, mouths, tattoos, jewelry, headbands, hats.

I’ve been using Ideogram.ai and the images are much less cursed than they used to be. If you put in the right prompts you can get pretty consistent results.

For the second image above, I called out an arm tattoo and then I experimented while calling out different colors for all of the parts of the uniform so we can then customize for the 1,000 Hardwood teams.

Is that with Ideogram.ai, Ced?

That's images are pretty good. The line on the ground in the second on are kind of strange. The hands and fingers aren't too bad.

Ced - that's are come great artwork.

Maybe this is for the general forum public...do you think we should think about replace the current player images? Or is this easy enough for people to generate there own player images (maybe using a common prompt or base image)?

I would love to be able to generate my own avatars for players. But the question is, would you have to check the avatars before they are approved? (I play another game with that kind if system) If that’s how it would work, that might be a bit time consuming, so a better alternative may be to just give everyone a new base avatar. If you trust the player base though, there would be restrictions on how long you would have to play the game for, but I think everyone would be for created there own avatars for players.

Here’s a very simple one. This is for my player Allen Ridley. Just describe the jersey, the player, and the background and you are all set.

The one on the right of this image could be if you want something a little fancier.

I think this work well for make individual images, but I'm not sure how to harness it for all the images we need for the game yet.

That would be tough, I’d say almost impossible, but maybe there is some way out there. Only thing I can think of is a prompt template you make and then the owner just fills out the info on it to make the picture, which would make it easier. But I doubt there would be a way to automate it tge way you do now.
