Instructions in the colab, reproduced below.
1) Press runtime -> run all (cells).
2) At the bottom of cell 1, a small form will appear. Fill the necessary details per the input options below,
- particularly **URL and api key**, then press the **run** button below.
3) Wait for the setup and resizing to complete. Pray the kernel doesn't timeout. You should see the final retention percentage just before the download message (and may choose to alter settings accordingly).
4) Save the resultant lora.
5) Repeat from stage 1 for additional loras.To setup an api key, go to your settings-security ( https://civitai.red/user/account/security ) , press add api key, permission preset read only, give it some name, then store & copy the jumble of text you get.
*Free as in freeloading off the c & g, what else is new .¯\_(ツ)_/¯
