What's free , conditions, needs registration, takes credit card?, subscription?,

BTW, any real free AI image generator site? (I need a stack of clocks with the hour 06:29. All generators I saw show 10 something, never six twenty nine.

       So have like a fact check thing eh? "We rank this totally free" or "Free if you consider paying $30 a month after forgetting your trial has ended free." I'd certainly have a look. [+]

       As for the stack thing and the time you want it to display, AI image generators are notoriously terrible at displaying things that aren't in any existing image and also things ON the thing you're generating. A free AI generator in particular will be bad at it because they use more lightweight and therefore less expensive models. Try getting a horse riding a man, it's nearly impossible.   

       Furthermore internet searches for free x are always borked because the search engines are all evil cunts who put paid results up top without telling you. Try going to the second or third page of results.

       //AI image generators are notoriously terrible at displaying things that aren't in any existing image and also things ON the thing you're generating//   

       I don't think that's quite right. They can generate things they haven't 'seen' perfectly well. Even if you give a human artist a description of something, they can sometimes misinterpret your request and give you something else. I've had that happen to me. That's increasingly likely the further what you want is away from the typical.
AI art generators do currently have difficulty displaying text (although some new models are much better at showing small amounts of text now).
They do also have problems with the relationship between things, and parts of things. I usually consider that they know perfectly well what they're drawing locally (in each small area of the image), but there isn't enough overview of the image as a whole. So a horse is lucky if it ends up with exactly 4 legs and one head.
  

       For the purpose of generating a specific image, first you should ask yourself whether using AI is the most appropriate approach. If it is, and you can't create it with a single request, I'd recommend using an iterative approach. Artbreeder.com is an amazing site - they obviously want you to pay to create images, but they will give you a few credits to spend each month, and a few more each day if you vote in their competition.
The big advantage of Artbreeder is that they have several tools, some of which accept one or more guide images. Their Collager tool is really good for iterating, especially if you're willing to patch bits of the image yourself. You can start with a rough sketch at a high level of 'imagination', then gradually tone it down as it approaches what you really want.

       //Try getting a horse riding a man, it's nearly impossible.//   

       Links to examples provided. I'm not an expert, and I didn't spend very much time on it. Obviously a horse is much bigger than a man, and I thought it was struggling with that so I tweaked the prompt to make it work.
Loris, Jan 02 2025
  

       hmm. I guess they fixed the problem, at least in that case. It used to be a common way of illustrating that particular shortcoming. Can you get "Cowboy riding a car as if it were a horse"?
Voice, Jan 02 2025
  

       //Can you get "Cowboy riding a car as if it were a horse"?//   

       To be honest, I'm not sure what that ought to look like. I imagine you'd get a variety of interpretations from human artists.   

       That exact prompt gave an array of cowboy on horse on car images, and strange horse/car hybrids. So I changed it to something more descriptive. It still took a few rolls, but I got things more in line with what I imagined. I did still get the occasional horse - I figure that's something it's taking as implicit from "cowboy riding".   

       At this point, I think it's clear that it's not really about whether it can draw 'anything', so much as how to describe what you want in terms it understands.
Loris, Jan 02 2025
  

       It seemed crass to respond to Voice's request but not your original one, pashute, so I've linked a couple of images I generated for you.
I'm not sure how close those are to what you're looking for, but if so, I think it would be straightforward to composite the better part of those two rolls together, and tidy up here and there. (I'll do that if you want.)
If not, well, you see it's possible, at least. I only did a few rolls, because I was using the most expensive model they currently offer (to get good numerals, etc), and didn't want to burn through too many credits. I could do a few more if you had specific changes.
