    25 mil for an AI generated picture? There's graphic designers here who charge less for hand crafted work. At the end of the day, you do you. But I'd recommend looking at what the other graphic designers that create original …

So late last night dammitsophie [2383031] and I stumbled across some software that can manipulate images to create some beautiful results. We went on a bit of a spree creating images for ourselves and then thought, why not see if its something the people of torn are willing to pay for?

This service will require you to give us some form of base image, or failing that instruction to go and find a base image you're happy with. I am also happy to add any finishing touches to the images you desire via photoshop, ie your name / id across it etc.

Whilst majority of the actual artwork is created by AI software, there is a time cost to us, especially if you instruct us to find images for you and / or add any final touches.

Examples (the base images were all just regular photos of the both of us):

[image: cdn.discordapp.com] [image: cdn.discordapp.com] [image: cdn.discordapp.com]

[image: cdn.discordapp.com] [image: cdn.discordapp.com] [image: cdn.discordapp.com]

If you're interested in us generating a picture for you, you'll need to pay 25M and send us some form of instruction on base image / inspiration. (keywords like Riot, Fire, Smoke, Creepy, etc.)

At the end of the day, you do you. But I'd recommend looking at what the other graphic designers that create original work are pricing,
and see if it's on par to just "Upload image" > Apply Filter > Download Image > Use Photoshop to add Comic Sans on top > Profit?

We wanted to be upfront with the process. It would have been just as easy to be deceitful and claim more work went into creating them.


Happy to drop the price but at the end of the day if someone doesn’t want to pay it then they don’t have to… in addition if they want to go out and do it themselves they’re more than capable of that. If someone wants us to do it for them based on the examples I have provided then that is our price?

There is still work / time commitment involved… it’s not a 0 effort process and we’ve put a price tag on our time and effort, it’s fair enough if others want to work harder for less

im not forcing anyone to buy the service nor am I that phased if it’s not that popular

perhaps my partner would be willing to do it for less, I’ll talk to her later tonight

Mate, there’s a global cost of living crisis if you haven’t noticed.

Riot is just using the latest Devops methods using clever AI to try and keep roof above him and his GFs head…

have a heart…

To be honest - market has it's laws, so if people find their work lacking or too expensive, they won't have any business and will have to either stop doing that or drop prices. You can say if it's worth it or not for you, other people will judge on their own
