Actually backgrounds are acceptable, just not the crocheted object to be tested.:woman_shrugging:

No, I also thought that first but I’ve talked to Ribblr and they have a no AI-tolerance!

Edit:

The answer I got from Ribblr

I’d love to test! There’s a new baby to the family that will be born in a few months! I might go with green, but I might go with orange because the og grumpy monster was orange. Then again you said any color, so maybe I’ll have some speckled yarn left for a confetti grumpy monster!

Hey ke tell you the process my son used. He did not use AI. I have not ever used AI. He explained he layered the background image.

  1. He google searched for a junkyard picture.
  2. i didnt want the grumpy guy floating so he google searched for burn barrel image.
    3
  3. He cropped the burn barrel out of the photo he found.
  4. He imported the barrel and resized it to fit in the foreground of the background ju kyard picture.
  5. he put the green guy picture on top of the barrel. The program he used is the same one I have been using since another designer recommended it to me. It is Collage Maker by Gridart.

I think everyone is so worried that something might be AI that if a picture is good or has a cute background you automatically start assuming it was AI. In fact it was my photo edit tech Savvy 18 year old son, who is studying photography at college right now that has helped me improve my photos. Grid art also has the sticker banners you can add with your text and about 60 fonts to choose from if you buy the pro, which I did.

I’m not trying to give an attitude or fuss, or upset anyone or hurt anyones feelings, I just want you all to know how simple it is to create a super cool picture without using any AI.

Just to explain, on the Dino Lovey I have out for testing my son took the picture with his digital camera. He and his girlfriend took the lovey to her sister’s house. They have a new baby. He masking taped a rolled up sheet to the top of the crib rail to make it wider and for good support for the lovey, put the lovey up there and took a picture. It was really simple. No AI either just ingenuity on my son’s behalf. I guess the money I have paid for tuition and books is starting to pay off. :laughing:

Oh congratulations on the new baby coming soon! Do excited and happy for you

Good to know not all the “kids” are using ai now! My comment referred to what Ribblr is allowing, not necessary whether or not your was ai, in case you were wondering. Was a good lesson on how your son made the background! How we used to have to do this “back in the day" lol! Glad you are seeing the good results of tuition!:grin::+1:
