AI Art Fix-Up: Before And After

After.

Before.

When I was preparing my image files for my Deviant Art site, I came across quite a few images that would have worked for the site, but they needed a bit of work, so I put them in a folder called "Easily Fixable" as I sorted.  The "before" pic is from my Easily Fixable folder as is. I used an SL avatar in a submission pose and then ran it through Civitai asking for a picture of a busy city street with her on it, along with other people walking around. I was hoping for something a little more paved, but this was still an intriguing image.

The first difference between the before and after pics is that the "after" pic looks a lot brighter. The colors seem to pop more. This is not unusual with AI art: it gets the dynamic range of the colors in an image wrong. Fortunately, it's a very easy fix in GIMP.

Then there's the ropes and straps hanging down between her legs. They don't make any sense visually, they don't connect with the rest of the figure in any logical way, so I replace them with background art, a little more troublesome than changing the lighting with a slider, but not difficult really. Note: I did leave in the plastic vibrator controller underneath her. Adds a nice "vibe" to the pic!

There was also the little square thing atop her butt. It looks like maybe it's the end of a dildo, but it's at the wrong angle for a dildo. It looks more like the top of a periscope. Well whatever it was, it looked like the visual equivalent of noise, so out it went. I replaced it with background art, much more easily than the leather straps between her legs.

Finally, there was one little thing. A finger, to be exact. The figure's right had was gifted with an extra finger by Civitai. This was by far the trickiest fix. I had to create a new outline of the wrist, extend the ropes around her wrist, and merge them with the background. Fortunately there were a lot of shadows, and those shadows, they do hide a lot of sins.

It Had To Happen ...

Steampunk bondage!
Source: Vidcap from the horror film "Hidden 3D." Apparently a mad scientist has developed a machine that can extract addictions from people by (waves hands wildly about) and the addictions live on as mutant monsters because (rolls on the floor gibbering madly). One woman gets the idea she is the mother to the monsters and decides to extract a mutant from the woman wearing the gag. The IMDB reviewers just SAVAGED this movie, it sounds like they wanted their two hours and their self-respect back for watching it. So don't watch it, but say, lovely steampunk style mutant extractor they've got that poor woman bound and gagged in, eh?

Chained and Gagged And In The Closet

...it was about this time that Sophie began to realize that coming out of the closet would be a lot harder than she thought it would be ...

Image is a vidcap from the 1969 Italian soft-core sex flick The Laughing Woman with gorgeous Italian actress Dagmar Lassander spending some time in the closet. They've only now started making them like this any more ... in the mainstream. You don't see a lot of strap gags on film even now, much less hogtied suspension with a head harness and a leather kink suit. Sweet!

From the Lurid to the Turgid

She was turned into a Sex Slave on the Rue de Montmartre by ruthless French human traffickers who got her hooked on escargot!”

In my article on Second Life Gor, the imagery and the text leaned heavily toward Gor, because that’s what I like. But as I tried to make plain, you can go ANYWHERE with the DiD imagery you like in Second Life, because there ARE no rules about sex and bondage, and because there’s a large kink community outside of Second Life that provides lots of non-Gorean bondage imagery. So I’ll lay on a few examples from time to time, like this lurid Lifetime-style sex slavery image. Of course, the Lifetime Channel would never go for imagery this naked … and that’s ANOTHER reason Second Life rocks.

Public Bondage In Second Life

"What do you mean you can't dance when you're hogtied? What kind of paga slave ARE you?"

So I haven’t updated my blog in a couple of days and I thought I’d explain why: Second Life Gor FREAKING ROCKS!!! That’s why! I can’t BELIEVE how good it is. So I wrote an article with pictures and arrows and everything to demonstrate why Second Life or something like it may well be the future of the Internet. Movies, television, books, message boards, (ahem) blogs -- they all pale before the glory of Second Life Gor!

An Offer So Good We Aren’t Willing To Make It!

“Ever wonder why people can never seem to lose weight from doing crunches, even when they buy products like the Ab Flapper and the Crunchinator? It’s because they’re not doing them right. To lose weight, you have to have the special balance and discipline imposed by doing crunches while naked, gagged, collared, cuffed, and strapped down to a cot. Do that and your belly will shrink so fast you'll think you're wearing William Shatner's corset, even though you're not! And we at Bondagerotica are glad to offer you the Gag and Cot Crunch Set for a low, low, price -- a price so low we’re not even willing to tell you what it is. Or how to buy it. It works and it’s OURS, dammit!”
