I just spent the last two hours burning up my credits just to discover the png to vector conversion sucks. When you open the resulting svg files they do not look like the original "dream" files. The colors are off and it looks like "paint by numbers" art gone bad. I'm sure you're going to tell me I didn't do something correctly, but I've been doing digital artwork for over a decade. I know you can't convert low res pngs with color gradients to svg without color quality losses.
Amazing workflow, Ryan! We do have plans to revamp digital publishing and support bundles much more intuitively inside MyDesigns... All in due time! Lots to do. 😅
Great news thanks man. Just a quick question, can you increase the number of dream ai designs we can see at a time? I'd like to be able to see all the designs I've created. I've created over 100 over a few days and now I can't see them all I'm only able to see the last set of 100 when I scroll down. Can you increase the limit please? Thanks.
But... that is a very painterly, raster file. Vectorizing works averagely well when it is about flat shades or only simple gradients (it is not the case)... I have not seen a close-up (zoom - in) of how those look once vectorized, though, with these apps. Maybe they do some unknown magic I am unaware of. I mean, even in Illustrator (someone else mentioned these better be brought to Illustrator, while I think that doe snot solve the problem), these would not get a decent vectorization result, due to the nature of the images. Sorry if I am missing something...
Yes I tried this and the images weren't smooth anymore, they had obvious gradients. :( MyDesigns is awesome though I love it! I'm currently looking for a way to upscale images.
Great video as usual. Did you know you can use MS Power Tools to make the actual image of your SVGs visible rather than than the MS Edge logo in the file search view? MS Power Tools is an official MS add on and it's free. I like it because it saves time if I am looking for a specific image and I don't remember what I named it.
I have a couple issues with this site. 1. The images are too small. 5:4 ratio is only like 640x512 pixels. When you try to upscale the images on their site it keeps giving an error. I don't know if it's bug or what. Also the site does a poor job at converting images to vector. Its bad quality. It looks better if you do it yourself in Adobe Illustrator. The site need some improvements. Especially image size.
In MyDesigns, if you try to publish after selecting all of them, it will publish each as an individual listing (so 9 images become 9 listings). By manually creating the bundle we can publish them as 1 listing, but I imagine MyDesigns will update in the future to support bundles
Thank you this amazing informative video. I’ve created my free account, generated AI images but doesn’t allow me to vectorize the files, do I need to pay for that or am I missing something?
Do you know of any promotional codes for mydesigns? i can see they regularly run 30% off but not currently. Its tough to justify buying this if I think I'm just going to get boned with a sale right after lol but this is super useful of a program the free version is very limited though.
There are some that say that AI art doesn't qualify as handmade on Etsy. They say it is the same as selling clipart you bought as-is on Etsy, which wouldn't meet the handmade qualification. Supposedly whether AI art is going to be allowed to continue as handmade is currently in debate at Etsy, and waiting for them to make an official ruling on it. I have been editing my AI designs to make them different for my Etsy shop, so I am hopefully safe.
Genuine question here: do you know if digital files qualify as handmade? I was just operating under the assumption that when they opened up to digital file selling that it was all good 🤷♂️
You get 500 credits per month, yes. It tops off each month, so if you use 450 of them, when your subscription renews, you'll get 500 topped off. Not 550. I hope that makes sense.
