Hey friends, I am not against Ai, it’s great for writting and generating ideas, BUT, We don’t need Ai to modify our art to make it “look better.”
This community is for sharing our actual handmade projects. Ai takes away the human element, which is the entire purpose behind something being handmade.
So, this has been added to our Community Guidelines:
“Authentic Photos Only - No Ai
This is a place for us to celebrate real, handmade projects. Please post only genuine photos of your actual projects. Ai-altered or artificial mockups are not allowed”
I have noticed an increase in Ai-generated images of artwork in craft spaces and I want this to be a safe place away from all of that.
Thanks for reading,
Have a great weekend!
Love, Frances

Shannon, thank you so much for your honesty and for bringing this up because that is a great question. (funny enough I haven’t even noticed your backgrounds were adjusted)
I understand that changing the background is so minor compared to modifying the album itself.
If we use AI on our photos, even just for the background, it makes our humanness seem messy compared to artificial ‘perfection’.
I advocate for 100% real photos, whether that be on the kitchen counter or on a couch, the beauty is in that it’s real, and that we can trust it is real. Everyone knows craft desks get crazy, and there is no reason to cover up who we are! ❤️
