Did this get downgraded don't matter what prompt I give it no good
Great model - I got it as my default - first one to try out new prompts, but also good for evolving other stuff that didn't look so good, but evolving with it puts the zinger into the images. Just go 50% or a bit higher for the noise. Sometimes I reach back to my creations done before it became available, and those are good candidates for evolving with Crystal Clear XL Lightning. Playing with the noise and prompt levels gives you a great variety of good results just from one prompt.
I've found this model adheres to prompt details and specific artist styles better than the other Lightening models, even adding great extra details to start images when prompted.
