Since I discovered Dalle-Mini and Dalle-2, i got interested in figuring out what other services exist in the same domain. I did not want to create an account, so I will consider services that do not require login. I got the following sites when I search AI Art Creator. Listing top 10 results below.
For this blog I selected Nightcafe, DeepAi and Wombo Dream. I ignored Dalle-2 as I have already evaluated it. Rest of the sites seems to be login only. Since this blog is all about generated images, I will only add four images for each site. To start this blog I will give one image generated by Dalle-2 just for a refresher.

Since we have a lot of art styles, we will just consider a few of them. Given below are the images that I generated with Wombo.art.
Topic: Rainy street with gas lamps
Style: Melancholic
The mood of this image is perfect, but we can see quite a few discrepancies in generation.
Topic: Quaint village at dawn
Style: Wuhtercuhler
This looks a good representation of watercolor painting. Is it dawn yet?
Topic: Waterfall on a rocky cliff
Style: Ghibli
Before this I had no idea what Ghibli means; then I figured out it was a Japanese studio. Whatever it is, this image looks very nice.
Topic: flower field at dusk
Style: Mystical
I have no idea what a flower bouquet is doing on the sky. Moody image though.
Nightcafe Studio
Nightcafe Studio is one more site that can generate nice images from text. It uses VQGAN+CLIP for underlying image creator. Let’s see some images generated by this site. We can use the following art styles.
- Matte
- Cosmic
- Cyberpunk
Topic: Dinner in a moon lit night
Style: Cosmic
That’s a creepy image of a man having dinner :(. Is that a long hand I see?
Topic: The Arc de Triomphe lit up at night
Style: Cosmic
This was a suggestion by the tool. Not sure what it tried to generate?
Topic: Quaint village at sunset in front of river
Style: Matte
I like this image. It has a nice and moody feel to it.
Topic: Ballerina in front of Christmas Village
Style: Cosmic
Not too bad. But looks like an anime.
DeepAI.org – text2img
DeepAi is different from the other sites above because it just has one project page. It primarily shows how to integrate this tool from different programming languages and has an option to create some images from web. This site also generates 4 images at the same time and adds all of them in one image. It looks more like a research product than something usable.
Topic: A dreamy fountain in front of mountain
Fairly nice images.
Topic: frog resting under a red mushroom
Cute froggies
Topic: realistic image of a ship wrecked at dusk
Which one are sinking?
Topic: pink herons in north pole
New resting place
Conclusion
It was fun trying to run some random texts through several websites and see how the generated images look. Hope you also find the images fun to look at. Ciao for now!
