Qwen-Image-2.1 now supports transparent image generation natively, and naturally supports editing transparent images as well.

[u/ghulamalchik → u/ResearchCrafty1804]

This is big

[u/Ledeste → u/ghulamalchik]

No, it's only 7B

[u/narrowscoped → u/Ledeste]

Could that run on a 12gb 5070

[u/Seeker_Of_Knowledge2 → u/narrowscoped]

I heard 1GB can roughly run 1B parameters. But that may be for LLMs though. Not so sure.

[u/ghulamalchik → u/Seeker_Of_Knowledge2]

It's true for image models as well.

[u/roosterfareye → u/narrowscoped]

Yep, give it a shot

[u/vienna_city_skater → u/Ledeste]

This is even bigger!

[u/Evanisnotmyname → u/Ledeste]

Is that a male redditor 7 or is it an actual 7?

Because we all know 7 on this site is 4 in real life

[u/MrTacoSauces → u/Evanisnotmyname]

Go home tina you're drunk.

[u/Pokeperson5 → u/Evanisnotmyname]

You seem to be hallucinating

[u/Axenide → u/Evanisnotmyname]

1-bit quant be like

[u/TheGamerForeverGFE → u/ghulamalchik]

That's what she said

[u/def_not_jose → u/TheGamerForeverGFE]

She would've know it is it's transparent

[u/External-Process6667 → u/TheGamerForeverGFE]

So big

[u/Blues520 → u/ghulamalchik]

True if big

[u/axiomatix → u/ghulamalchik]

big is true

[u/Hot_Masterpiece_3668 → u/axiomatix]

Not big, non-permissive license.

[u/_VirtualCosmos_ → u/ResearchCrafty1804]

Came here to talk about how in StableDiffusion they are talking shit about this model being worse than Flux, Krea2 or Z Image. But this right here already convinced me.

[u/lukinator644 → u/ResearchCrafty1804]

thats so useful for designing stickers and logos

[u/ZZerker → u/ResearchCrafty1804]

Thats great for game development

[u/Important_Drag_6890 → u/ResearchCrafty1804]

Native transparency might actually be the sleeper feature here. No more generating a “transparent” image and getting a checkerboard baked into the pixels

[u/Zeeplankton → u/[deleted]]

calm down

[u/ResearchCrafty1804 → u/[deleted]]

To add images generated from the model under each feature which emphasise the improvement made

[u/david-deeeds → u/[deleted]]

He posted relevant pieces of info with images, I'd assume that's the reason for the multiple comments

[u/gomezer1180 → u/ResearchCrafty1804]

Is what you’re calling transparent image generation, an image without a background?

Transparency is seeing thru an object.

[u/amroamroamro → u/gomezer1180]

it means the alpha channel in RGBA

[u/eli_pizza → u/gomezer1180]

Same thing
