    This is the first of your videos that I’ve watched. Thank you. I’m going to have a great time making c.books for all the kids in my family. I like to give memorable gifts but there are so many little ones, it’s getting really expensive. This will work out so much cheaper and will also serve as a keepsake if they want 😊

    • @autogatos
      @autogatos Před rokem

      While I’m glad you’re not selling them like the rest of these folks, I hope none of the little kids in your family want to be artists when they grow up. It’s going to be a tough message to explain to them that they won’t be able to make a living selling their art because instead of supporting actual artists people are now just using tech that takes all that art without pay or permission, copies and recombines it, and spits out random results, because it’s “cheaper.” 😞
      No matter how much cheaper something is, personally I’m not comfortable giving gifts to my kid or other loved ones knowing it’s made using the unpaid labor of an entire industry while simultaneously putting those people out of jobs.

      ​@@autogatos don't hate the player, hate the game! I understand and agree the value of ones work drastically fell over the last 30years, but he can jist as easily.go to dollarama and pick up 12 colouring books for less than $20. Not everyone can afford artwork or live a life of anything beyond basic needs and we dont know his circumstances or where he chooses to spend his money. Jist as much as I may think its outrageous to spend half your monthly income on an ugly painting that no one understands. You obviously do not value digital art or ideas people have or the skill to use tools, like a computer and programs. Who owns the digital information chatgpt is giving or is it tapped into the hive mind?

    • @fibienn250
      @fibienn250 Před rokem

      @@autogatos I understand your point. However as Dana102083 says, not everyone has to money for artist made gifts or the skill and time to make gifts.
      I am fortunate enough that I am able to buy from Etsy. I also buy from art supply stores because most of the kids are artistic. I just thought that this would be a nice alternative if I’m in a time or money crunch. It’s not as if I’m going to now exclusively give colouring books. At most, it will be a one off gift for each child.

    • @autogatos
      @autogatos Před rokem

      @@fibienn250 I just don’t understand why that justification is acceptable to so many when it specifically involves theft from artists (or other creatives), vs. other types of work.
      If you want to give someone a new dress or toy or electronic device, but don’t want to spend the money or have ability to make it yourself, does that make it okay to get the item for free from someone who essentially stole it or the components to make it (by taking it from the actual people who made it, without permission or pay)?
      It’s not like personalized gift art is an essential survival need like food or medicine, but people who would never dine and dash or steal medicine so often seem fine with not paying artists.
      This is how we make our living. How we buy *our* food and medicine. It’s how I afford to buy things for my child. And yeah one person using ai to make one gift isn’t going to destroy artists’ careers, but with the sheer volume of people willing to use this, it adds up, plus it empowers/supports the companies who stole our art and makes their behavior seem more acceptable, making it even harder for artists to fight against even more extreme examples of it (I know many artists who have lost out on jobs because of how this tech is being used).

    • @autogatos
      @autogatos Před rokem

      @@dana102083 I’m literally a digital artist, so accusing me of not valuing digital art is hilariously absurd. And ironic. Since it’s people using this tech with zero care for the ethical implications who clearly don’t value digital art or the effort and skill that goes into creating it.
      Your argument suggests a significant lack of understanding of how this tech works compared to digital art (or if you do understand, you’re intentionally using straw man arguments). Digital art, like traditional art, requires time, effort, and skill. It requires an understanding of composition and color theory, of inking and rendering techniques, literally all the same things as traditional art, just with a stylus and digital paint or ink instead of a brush or pen.
      Digital artists sketch, ink, and paint, plan compositions, decide on color schemes and lighting direction, and choose the placement of each brushstroke like any other artist.
      But that is not what ai art is. It’s not a computer creatively dreaming up and crafting its own designs, and it’s *certainly* not the prompt-typer doing that work. Ai art algorithms are “trained” on databases of (mostly stolen) art created by actual human artists. All it’s doing is mimicking/copying data with zero intent or understanding of the reason behind those artistic choices. All the artistic choices that make the output appealing were made by the artists whose work was fed into the database.
      If you ask it to spit out a cute picture of a puppy, it got the round eyes, color of the fur, the direction of the brushstrokes, the expression on its face, all from someone else’s artwork. It might be a very close copy of an existing piece of work or a patchwork of the works of many different artists, but either way, everything it does is made possible by the labor of human artists whose work was used without their permission and who were not paid for that usage.
      It’s like creating a robot “chef” that steals all its ingredients from other restaurants or chefs’ personal kitchens and all its recipes are just lines from human chefs’ recipes cut and pasted together without their permission.

For pricing my general recommendation is to price similar to similar books (or slightly cheaper when you don’t have as many reviews yet). Also make sure you price above the fees Amazon charges so you have a positive margin at all times :)

    Thanks for this tutorial! I'm wondering if there are other image enlarger tools that might be cheaper than $9/month? Also, how do you make sure your first coloring image is on the right side/spread of the book and the blanks are on the left/behind them...? I'm assuming like most books when you open it, there's the initial page that is blank and then the next page is maybe the copyright page/book info and whatnot and then the coloring book begins... Not sure how to create that correctly!?
    Thanks!

    • @ivyhang5084
      @ivyhang5084  Před rokem +3

      Thanks for your kind comment! Regarding your question on pages, Amazon KDP prints the first page you have as the first page in the book so there are no random blank pages in the front. Copyright pages will only be there in the front if you add them yourself. So basically the first page you have in canva will be the first page ppl see when they flip open your book :). Unfortunately I’m not familiar with other image enlargers as that’s the one I use mainly. However, might be worthwhile to see if you can find something that is cheaper/ with more free images via google, etc.
      Hope this helps!

      @@worldballtv3748 if you’re truly concerned about doing this ethically, you should know every single one of these ai image generators runs on stolen artwork. None of the artists whose work was fed into them gave permission for their work to be used in this manner, and they don’t receive any compensation for it.
      AI art can’t be copyrighted because it’s just a machine copying parts of existing artwork, not a novel human creation. The companies selling “commercial licenses” are exploiting you and the artists they stole from. They have no more rights to those images than you do so selling “commercial rights” they don’t even own is a scam.
      If you want images to use for commercial purposes without paying for it, there are some free stock sites online and there are many artists who offer free stock on their sites or other art galleries. Just make sure you read the usage terms carefully as there may be different rules for different images (and make sure the stock sites are legit).
      You can also learn to create the art you need yourself! It takes time and effort, but it’s way more fun and fulfilling, and you’ll find artists are very welcoming and generous to people who want to learn the craft, offering all kinds of free tutorials and advice all over the internet.

      Not sure if it would work, or how much content you have, but you can train models on some platforms, so if you are looking for a certain style, you can give it a bunch of reference and then when it generates it, it will generate from what you have trained it up on.

      What Conor is suggesting is even more unethical, please do not do this. You are also more likely to face legal trouble if you’re training a model on a specific artist’s work.
      The only ethical, effective way to create artwork that maintains a consistent style is to actually draw it yourself. That allows you to create more unique artwork, gives you the pride of actually having made something yourself, and allows you to copyright your creations (ai art cannot be copyrighted so you have no legal rights to the images you chose from your prompts).
