1️⃣ Evolved Creator Program - Get Paid Now!

It has been a long time in the making, and we’re thrilled to finally share that the new Civitai Creator Program has launched! In this update we’ve rolled out a new way to reward our Creators for their dedication, innovation, and contributions to the Civitai community.

This program is designed to support the incredible work of our Creators, recognizing the effort that goes into making and sharing models. Whether you’re an experienced Creator or just getting started, this program is built to help you grow and earn from your work.

We’ve updated the Creator Program Information Page with an overview of the Program, and for those looking for a deep dive, we’ve also put together a comprehensive guide in the Education Hub to help you understand how it all works!

2️⃣ Quality of Life Enhancements

We’ve been actively working through a list of frequently requested Quality of Life improvements, focusing on making your experience on Civitai smoother and more intuitive! As part of this effort, we’ve implemented exciting features, including;

• ⚙️ Generator “Advanced Mode”, allowing the combination of Base Models and LoRAs from different ecosystems (e.g. SDXL + Illustrious). This will be expanded upon in future to provide more settings and options for the power-user!

• ⬇️ The ability to sort your images by Newest or Oldest, on the Generator Queue and Feed tabs!

• 🏆 From the Daily Challenge icon in the top left of the Generator, you can now submit your Challenge entries directly from the Generator panel!

• 🆘 Faster Member support! We’ve introduced a tiered support system, based upon Membership levels, to ensure everyone’s getting the quickest help possible in our Ticket Portal.

3️⃣ True Image-to-Image!

We've hit a major milestone with the release of true image-to-image generation! Use it with an existing image from your Generation Queue, or 'Bring Your Own Image' (BYOI) from your own computer, or any website!

To try it out, select any SD 1.5 or SDXL Base model (including Pony, Illustrious, etc.), then choose 'Image-to-Image Variations (img2img)' from the Workflow drop-down.

Flux doesn’t support BYOI just yet, but an update is on the way!

4️⃣ Tours

We know Civitai can be a bit overwhelming for new users, so we’ve added a number of simple guided Tours to help!

These walkthroughs cover common tasks like generating your first image and posting it to the site, and will launch the first time a new user performs certain actions.
