[Feature Request]: Improved Negative Prompt Support for Anime, Paintings and Other Non-Photographic Media

[DavidDragonsage]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues and checked the recent builds/commits

What would your feature do?

Currently the Anime preset uses Fooocus Negative in its default_styles list. This is an unfortunate choice in that Fooocus Negative suppresses "anime", as well as "drawing, painting, crayon, sketch, graphite, impressionist, noisy... cartoon, graphic, text, painting, crayon, graphite, abstract" (yes, "painting" is listed twice).

Fooocus Enhance is a somewhat better choice for non-photographic negative prompting in that it does not suppress "painting", but it does have "(airbrushed, cartoon, anime, semi-realistic, cgi, render, blender, digital art, manga, amateur:1.3), (3D ,3D Game, 3D Game Scene, 3D Character:1.1)" in its no-fly zone.

Apart from that, Fooocus Enhance contains a lot of suppression that is really valuable for semi-realistic art, such as "bad anatomy", "watermark", "cropped", etc.

My proposal is to have a version of the Fooocus Enhance style in which the words "airbrushed" through to "3D Character" were removed. Perhaps this new style could be called "Fooocus Semi-Realistic".

Proposed workflow

1. Open sdxl_styles_fooocus.json in the script editor of your choice (I use Brackets)
2. Make a copy of the "Fooocus Enhance" text and insert it with the name "Fooocus Semi-Realistic"
3. Remove the words "(airbrushed, cartoon, anime, semi-realistic, cgi, render, blender, digital art, manga, amateur:1.3), (3D ,3D Game, 3D Game Scene, 3D Character:1.1), " from the new style
4. Save and test
5. Open anime.json in a script or text editor
6. In the default_styles section, replace "Fooocus Negative" with "Fooocus Semi-Realistic"
7. Save and test
8. Add an appropriate cat image to the samples folder
9. Test if the new popup image works in the Style selector pane

Additional information

I am an experienced programmer, but not in Python. This is however a very basic change and I would be happy to implement it if you wish. It is possible that the total number of Styles is a fixed number that would need to be adjusted. Thank you for taking a look at this!

Feel free to modify the styles to your liking and provide a PR with the changes, which are then going to be benchmarked/evaluated.

I was not able to initiate a Pull Request. This was the error message: "Pull request creation failed. Validation failed: must be a collaborator"

I have attached the whole package as a zip. Within the zip, "Improved Negative Prompt Support for Anime.txt" is the core text that would have formed the PR. The files sdxl_styles_fooocus.json, anime.json, and fooocus_semi_realistic.jpg are the files to be changed or added, and the PNGs serve as supporting documentation for the testing phase of the project.

Thank you! I feel like I just performed something miraculous, but I think I've successfully created a PR! :)

Today I revised the proposed Fooocus Semi Realistic style with a new commit. This revision removes the text "grayscale, bw," so that other semi realistic styles besides painting and anime are supported. This would allow for media such as sketches, black and white photos, and greyscale printing to be supported with the large collection of other useful negatives that were in Fooocus Enhance - and are the basis for Fooocus Semi Realistic.
