@Perchance, looking at the TextToImage plugin page again today the wrongness of the line ‘the same seed generates the exact same picture’ is sort of jarring since nothing else on the page is false nor misleading (that i kno of).

for those of you who dont know, the same seed generates a variety of similar pictures.

    3Tho I do not think this is one of those areas.

    Long ago I actually made a generator that was based off this concept of same seed = same image. After a decently long build time, it turned out that same seed does NOT equal same image and was an unforseen wrecking of that design concept; not just unforseen, but I had read this same sentence I am highlighting now and it is specifically this sentence that made it sound good to go but as an unexpected failure with wasted effort.

    It can be explained to newbies without causing harm. But right now it isn’t ‘ommitting nonessential info’. It is portraying something incorrectly and, if anyone uses the info for a generator using the concept of Same Seed = Same Image, they get pwned by the statement having been unexpectedly false.

    I do not know anywhere else in Perchance where something stated as true is actually false and if you use that info assuming it’s true you get pwned.
