    This is such a user friendly guide, I'm so impressed! Though I've run into a bit of an issue - it can't seem to connect to the site to download Katherine Crowson's diffusion model - I'm guessing this means that the other models I downloaded are pretty much useless. Do you know if there's another mirror, or whether it's been taken down? Thanks!

    This is absolutely amazing. I am getting mind blowing results. Do I own my creations?

    I can't for the life of me get this to run! First "NameError: name 'texts' is not defined" and then when I manually enter in the texts variable, I get "NameError: name 'args' is not defined" and I have no idea what else to do. I must be doing something wrong?

    I keep having this issue in several cells: NameError: name 'abs_root_path' is not defined. Any tip?

    I can't seem to get coco, s-flckr, or faceshq to run every time I try it. Have you gotten those to work?

    Is it legal to sell this art or is it copyright?

    I don't understand how the Advanced VQGAN+CLIP Parameters impact the output. l I have played with them a but, but cant seem to figure out what they do. looking for documentation, but no luck yet.

    I also was not able to download the diffusion model. Messaged the notebook author on twitter and he said he was looking for a mirror, but that was a few weeks ago, so not sure the status. Have been able to run other models though, just cant do clip guided diffusion.
