@Stable_Yogi I figured it out, thanks. But I've determined that z-image-turbo isn't powerful enough for me to consider for the long term. I'm more looking forward in seeing what the community can do with the base model which is supposed to come out later, I think. What's your opinion?
@olternaut You are right, as of now, until we have a full model, we can just plug and play.
Full model will help determine the future of ZIT
