I didn't really look if this has been posted already but oh well...
If you haven't heard about Stable Diffusion, its similar to DALL-E, a text to image generator except that you can download and run the components and models locally (and sell any created works if you are that way inclined).
I would only really recommend it to Windows user with Nvidia GPU's as the setup is easy and has a high success rate vs AMD/Linux.
The point is that when I started typing this post, I started generating images that are attached (limit 20 per forum post but stable diffusion spit out 3 times that before I finished typing, I picked some colourful ones). No effort was required past installing stable diffusion and well, some of them are really quite good starting points (or even entirely useable final images). Between stable diffusion and ChatGPT you can have a Mir themed website setup in about an hour.

If you want to check out stable diffusion and you run Windows,
I use the "AUTOMATIC1111's WebUI" which can be found at the links below.
GitHub : https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui
Install instructions (Nvidia) : https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/wiki/Install-and-Run-on-NVidia-GPUs
Install instructions (AMD) : https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/wiki/Install-and-Run-on-AMD-GPUs
Unstable Diffusion's Discord is a good Discord for tips/help too : https://discord.gg/aTzxbWbatn
################
My version of install instructions for Windows/Nvidia:
Install this : https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.10.6/python-3.10.6-amd64.exe
-click "add to PATH" or "add to system environment variables" during install.
Install this : https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/download/v2.39.2.windows.1/Git-2.39.2-64-bit.exe
-Again click "add to PATH" or "add to system environment variables" during install.
Download and extract this : https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/archive/refs/heads/master.zip
-somewhere you wont move it and with at least 20GB of free space
Run webui-user.bat from inside the extracted files and wait until it finishes installing and downloading the required stuff.
If it appears to be stuck, just wait unless there is a clear error.
When its ready, you'll be able to go to http://127.0.0.1:7860 where you will find the UI for Stable Diffusion.
