Page 2 of my bestiary: B is for Bakeneko It was made completely in BP with Flux 2 Pro. But the generated image was very faded. I couldn't see any way to improve contrast and saturation like I can in NC, so I exported it and fixed the contrast in Photoshop. My monitor might be brighter than other folks so I'm worried I might have made it too dark for the majority. Spelling is great and this time I was able to get the text to float over the background instead of having big white squares with black text. I changed the text part of the prompt to this: start-- float the following text above the background in contrasting colors from the background On the upper left side show: "bakeneko, ghost cat" "don't be cruel, don't be mean" "she will take revenge" "by Cactus Haiku" On the lower right side show: "B is for Bakeneko" "(Japan)" "supernatural cat yokai" "mysterious shapeshifter, revenge demon" -- end

About this image

A mystical cat dressed in an ornate Japanese kimono sits and plays a shamisen against a moonlit night landscape. The artwork blends traditional ukiyo-e-inspired styling with a whimsical, supernatural mood, using deep blues, purples, and vibrant kimono patterns to highlight the feline musician.

Just a test to see if i can put an image into a comment. If it works, this is another image I made of the bakeneko cat. https://api.budgetpixel.com/api/v1/images/proxy/Z2VuZXJhdGVkLWltYWdlcy8xNzY4ODExNTcyNDc0NTE5MjY5LnBuZw

test didn't work. The link does work to go to the image but didn't show as an image.

Worked somewhat. You can see the image but it's a thumbnail and the text dominates.
