Hands down the best ComfyUI basics tutorial I've seen so far. And I really appreciate how organized you are. You've convinced me on the using the bus nodes. Thank you.

Absolute legend. Finally someone makes meaningful tutorials with useful quality of life tips and a bit of background on each function! thank you !

This was HUGELY helpful for a complete newbie to ComfyUI. Deleting the various nodes and adding them back was a nice exercise to get used to how to manipulate the interface, and the bus way of doing it really lays things out in a more logical way. I don't think I'll be creating too many samplers, but it's nice to know I *can* if I ever need to.

I’ve watched so many AI tutorials and this is by far the best explanation I’ve found. Even beats a $$ course I’m currently enrolled in - so good!

Impressed newbie here!! Ready to learn more...

[HuTrzy]

Thank you for the explanation and, in fact, for the entire series of guides !

Great intro thanks! I don't seem to have the Text box node @16:41 do I need to install it, or has it been superceded? Cheers! Guess Preset text will do something similar with more options haha

Hi, dont know what I am doing wrong but when I Queue Prompt, it says 'TypeError: Failed to fetch'. Can you help please?

[MasculineIndulgence]

you actually explain the various small complexities rather than “oh dont pay attention to that its not that important ”

[Skettalee]

Man, great tutorial. I have so many questions still thoough, and also when you cntrl c then cntrl shift v and it pastes all the stuff together and linked if i go click any of those things to drag it around it then makes a copy of that thing i clicked and only some wires are connected, it does that for every single thing i copied too.

[claudiabaran-konarska]

[nicobay]

Im starting to get used but most of tim3 the face always end with ugly eyes or mouth, how can i fix dat?

[ArturMatveichenkov]
