Generating images with ComfyUI

Demo summary
The creator demonstrates how to queue a prompt and monitor the generation progress through the KSampler node to produce a final image output.
Step-by-step
- Locate the Queue button in the top right or floating tray
- Click the Queue button to start the generation
- Monitor the green highlight on the active node to track progress
- Check the progress bar on the KSampler node
- Open the Queue on the left-hand side to view running tasks
- View the final image in the output node
Options
- Install custom nodes to add a global progress bar at the top of the screen
- Swap the base Stable Diffusion model for a community checkpoint to improve output quality
Tips
- Use community-created checkpoints rather than the base model for significantly better image results
- Add a custom progress bar node as it is indispensable for monitoring long generations
Highlights
“this really illustrates the beauty of the checkpoints that the community has created”
