Thank you Tam for this! Just read through it (the bits I needed) and really helped.

edit: replied to @TheBeardedBelgian :joy: so I deleted the comment, but looks like it stays as well… double awkward.

Any stuff like artbreeder.com for generating or modifying visuals people know and could share? I’ve also found Adobe Capture to be excellent for making quick line art out of photos. Oh! And the Metropolitan Museum of Art is excellent for public domain goodies!
