WHAT IS THIS?
-------------
This archive contains AI-generated character artwork created using Stable
Diffusion XL running entirely on local hardware (no cloud services). The
images are produced by an automated system that randomly combines character
attributes like clothing, poses, expressions, and settings to create unique
character portraits.

The project demonstrates that hobbyists can run sophisticated AI image
generation locally on consumer hardware like Apple Silicon Macs.

HOW IT WORKS
------------
A custom script randomly selects from pools of tags covering things like:
- Character roles (scientist, knight, barista, etc.)
- Physical attributes (hair, eyes, build)
- Clothing and outfits
- Poses and expressions  
- Scene backgrounds

These are combined into prompts fed to Stable Diffusion models fine-tuned
for character art. Each image includes a .txt file with the exact prompt
and settings if you want to recreate or modify it.

FOLDER STRUCTURE
----------------
Images are organized by date: YYYY/MM/DD/

Each dated folder contains:
- Generated images (PNG)
- Preview thumbnails (preview_*.jpg)
- Prompt info files (*.txt) with generation parameters
- index.html gallery for easy browsing

CONTENT DISCLAIMER
------------------
Best efforts have been made to produce only appropriate, non-NSFW content.
However, due to the nature of how Stable Diffusion models are trained
(often on datasets containing adult content), occasional inappropriate
images may slip through despite negative prompts and AI moderation.

All generated images pass through automated content filtering, but no
filter is perfect. If you encounter anything inappropriate, please
understand this is an unintended artifact of the underlying AI models,
not intentional content.

This archive is intended for educational and artistic purposes.
