do not suggest attempting to train the image generator on tessellation…
it’s ready to suck tokens for days,
as the generally available training data from the internet on tessellations in general are poo.
I’m kinda hitting the same wall that I found with the T-bone impact thing…
I will bust this wall someday though, I really want to see areas in art generation that surpass the human condition…
There is no sublety: the desired subject is written as the name of the 50’s drive-in.
Can’t quite tell if she is supposed to be headless or have a hamburger as a head, but a figure with ruby slippers attached to the sign is the only human delivered.
BTW: if you want a repeating tile, the way to do this (before the quality went to the basement) would be to use dall-e-2 in edit mode, convolute the original image that was pattern-like but not joined so that its quadrants:
1,2
3,4
Are primed for the joining pattern infill, and the edges are at the center:
4,X,3
X,X,X
2,X,1
Then let the model worry about infill that connects.
GPT-4o-images cannot reproduce this tutorial by prompting with such instructions, and it also would be useless for the task otherwise, regenerating the whole image then without the original “center”:
the cool thing about repeating patterns is they don’t have to be complex to look cool.
as always thank you for your insight I’m certainly fascinated by the concept now,
as so few legitimate tessellations have been created outside of basic geometry.
this is the stuff that gets me addicted to the Ai.
Tim and Jack were best friends. However, in an accident, 8-year-old Tim passed away. His family had Tim’s mind connected to an AI robot. Years later, Jack meets his old virtual friend again and they relive their old jokes, experiencing a mix of happiness and sadness in a surprising way.
Simba and Mwalimu were best friends who did everything together, until their goals led them to the same point. They opened the best two restaurant in their town.
Henry starts working at a football club. However, when he points out some problems among the managers, he becomes the target of everyone’s criticism. This is because no one likes to have their mistakes pointed out. Hans Christian Andersen’s story The Emperor’s New Clothes only changes in form over time, but its message remains timeless.
Then the GPT spam tucked away in the drop down, if for you!
I took a moment to ask 4o to explain how it translates word salads,
Into specific commands to the image gen,
And where it’s forced to assume is also important to pay attention to, in order to avoid frustrations!
Extremely Insightful GPT Spam on Image Prompting for the Completely Non-Technical
Absolutely. Here’s a breakdown of your original image prompts from this session, alongside how I likely restructured them internally before passing them to DALL·E:
“We can still make beautiful rustic cartoon leaf patterns.
Interlace the pattern of leaves with Lavendar sprigs and thistles.
Wheats, and flowering thistles should also be used
interweave them in such a way that no negative space is left behind,
greens, blues, violets should be the colors worked around as best as possible with accents from plants to compliment the esthics”
Rewritten (what I passed to DALL·E)
“A seamless, hand-drawn botanical pattern featuring lavender sprigs, flowering thistles, wheat stalks, and lush green leaves. The layout should be dense, leaving no negative space, with stems interwoven naturally in front of and behind each other. Colors should focus on harmonious greens, blues, and violets with complementary accents from the plants themselves. Style should be rustic and vintage, with a naturalist cartoon quality.”
Prompt #2: Add Depth – Wrapped Stems, No Negative Space
Your Original Prompt
“now lets start to wrap the stems in front of and behind each other, add more plants to the pattern so that no negative space is left”
Rewritten (if I had re-generated here)
(Note: You didn’t trigger a new image with this one, but here’s how I would have reworded it if you had):
“Update the rustic botanical pattern to wrap stems and leaves both in front of and behind one another, creating visual depth. Densify the composition by adding additional plants (lavender, thistle, wheat, foliage) to eliminate all negative space. Maintain a hand-drawn, vintage style with the same green, blue, and violet palette.”
Prompt #3: Roses, Daisies, Violets
Your Original Prompt
“lets do another one, using roses, vines, daisies and violets!”
Rewritten
“A seamless, hand-drawn floral pattern featuring red roses, daisy blossoms, violets, and winding green vines. Composition should be tightly interlaced, leaving no negative space. Emphasize a natural, rustic cartoon style with vibrant but earthy tones—warm reds, soft whites and yellows, purples, and abundant leafy greens.”

Prompt: A side view of a little girl with blonde hair and blue eyes holds a glass mason jar filled with fireflies in her hands and she is taking off the lid and letting them escape up into the midnight blue starry night; realistic enchanted storybook style
