ComfyUI Extension: ComfyI2I

ComfyI2I Introduction

ComfyI2I is an extension designed to enhance the capabilities of ComfyUI by providing a set of custom nodes specifically for image-to-image (I2I) functions. This extension is particularly useful for AI artists who want to manipulate and transform images with ease. Whether you are looking to transfer colors between images, create masks, or perform complex image editing tasks, ComfyI2I offers a range of tools to help you achieve your creative goals.

How ComfyI2I Works

ComfyI2I operates by adding custom nodes to ComfyUI, each designed to perform specific image manipulation tasks. Think of these nodes as individual tools in a digital artist's toolkit. Each node can be connected to others to create a workflow that processes images in a step-by-step manner. For example, you might use one node to create a mask from an image, another to transfer colors, and yet another to combine and paste the final result. This modular approach allows for great flexibility and creativity.
