All in this category- Icons (SDXL Flat Pop)Community
SDXL fine-tune by galleri5 for slick flat icons and pop constructivist graphics with thick edges. Trained on Bing generations, it produces clean single-subject icon art that suits app icons, badges and UI glyphs. Raster output, not true vector.
- InstantIDCommunity
InstantID makes realistic portraits of a real person from a single reference photo without per-user training. Combines a face encoder with an IdentityNet adapter on SDXL to keep identity and pose while following a text prompt, so it is fast and tuning-free.
- Sticker MakerCommunity
fofr's sticker generator that outputs graphics with transparent backgrounds, so the result drops straight into chat apps or print sheets. Runs an SDXL-based pipeline at high speed (default 17 steps) and returns die-cut style art without manual background removal.
