Preamble

Greetings. You may know me as xxiiyu or 11yu from other places.

This guide is mostly made with local generation in mind, and is not a good beginner introduction - you can check out some #other guides made by the community for that. Instead, I'll be focusing more on:

• 1-2 steps further into the technical aspects of what a usual imagegen guide may provide.
  • This is to compliment the multitude of other online guides that give a broader overview of the topic.
  • You might find the gory, even more technical details in sections marked [DD], or a separate Deep Dive section at the end of a page, if it exists.
• lesser-known tips, tricks, and technologies that may improve your imagegen process.

Everything here should be taken with a mountain of salt, as in practice, many other variables could influence your results greatly. Also, this article is mostly written by a dumb person (me). You will likely come out of a section thinking: "Interesting. This doesn't help me at all."

With that in mind, let's dive in.
