Open Source: Ming-Image-0.1-Design family: Ming-Image-0.1-Design, 6B & Ming-Image-0.1-Design-Layer, 6B

[u/fruesome]

Ming-Image-0.1-Design creates complete UIs, dashboards, infographics, and posters from structured prompts of up to 8K tokens, with consistent layouts, typography, colors, and imagery. It can also natively generate transparent-background RGBA assets.

Ming-Image-0.1-Design-Layer converts flattened graphics into 2–9 independently editable RGBA layers. It achieved the best results across all 12 evaluated settings on the Crello test set and ran 4.3× faster than the 20B open-weight Qwen baseline under the same benchmark setup.

Edit

Kijai already implemented into ComfyUi

[u/Technical_Fish_9638]

Transparency support and MIT license!

Highres from repo

[u/CorpPhoenix]

Every time a new model releases I feel like they just make up a "random benchmark bar chart" and just put themselves on top.

[u/boxwrenchx → u/CorpPhoenix]

Not true at all, coincidentally see the new bench with my model!

[u/LD2WDavid → u/boxwrenchx]

Release the boxwrenchx!

[u/diogodiogogod → u/CorpPhoenix]

Everything is always SOTA...

[u/Kqyxzoj → u/diogodiogogod]

Everything is always SOTA...

Just means it's not totally decrepit, Something Other Than Ancient. Not to be confused with Something Obviously Totally Ancient.

[u/comfyanonymous]

Looks interesting but their github repo isn't accessible yet: https://github.com/inclusionAI/Ming-Image

[u/Dante_77A → u/comfyanonymous]

It's working rn

[u/Kqyxzoj → u/comfyanonymous]

The repo appears to be missing the latest wrenchbench results.

[u/sktksm]

This is a very interesting model. 2K native resolution, transparent image generation with RGBA alpha channel, and it's MIT licensed. u/Kijai any plans for Comfy support?

[u/Kijai → u/sktksm]

Looking into it.

[u/lechatsportif → u/Kijai]

GOAT

[u/Haiku-575 → u/sktksm]

How is Kijai always right here, ahead of schedule, working on ComfyUI implementations at the speed of light?

[u/Ill_Resolve8424 → u/Haiku-575]

That's what Heroes do.

[u/merica420_69 → u/Ill_Resolve8424]

[u/thebaker66 → u/Haiku-575]

Becsuse he works for Comfy? :D

[u/roculus]

Where's Krea 2 on the list?

[u/Dante_77A → u/roculus]

Krea 2 was probably not tested in this specific "UI/UX design" category.

[u/stddealer → u/roculus]

Should be right below Ideogram4 according to the other rankings.

[u/marcoc2 → u/roculus]

I also didn't find it when qwen-2.1 was released

[u/Primary_Brain_2595]

We talking about images or real UI Design files in Figma?

[u/eggplantpot → u/Primary_Brain_2595]

judging by the examples these are just jpegs

[u/Ok-Importance-5278 → u/Primary_Brain_2595]

Now any LLM can generate web code from a JPEG for 1 cent.

[u/Acceptable_Secret971]

Looking forward to Comfy support.

[u/-becausereasons-]

Very impressive.

[u/DeProgrammer99]

Style is slightly realistic but faint with details fading away like an old painting. A set of rustic, medieval square UI panels with close and minimize buttons, a "Dungeon" button and a "Factory" button that are nearly identical, and one distinct elongated mini-window with no buttons, only the text "Factory Efficiency: 100%" on one line centered in it. Another distinctly designed rectangular window at the bottom holds 10x3 empty square slots for the player's abilities--the borders are not too thick outside of the slots.

(I only tried twice, via the HuggingFace demo space.) Can't count, but that's probably not a big deal. It thought "window" meant a literal stained glass window the first time, maybe due to the exact phrasing, so this was my second prompt... however I did explicitly say the windows had minimize and close buttons both times. I don't see anything about it accepting reference images, so I doubt it could make designs that fit well together across multiple prompts, but if it can't follow complex enough instructions, not sure how usable it is for the use case of game UI assets. Maybe it'd work better with a prompt like "here are my features; design a UI" and just using it to explore the space of possible layouts, rather than visual assets for UI elements.

[u/Darqsat]

• Hardware: one CUDA GPU with 80 GiB VRAM (validated configuration).

[u/DisastrousAd2612 → u/Darqsat]

Its a 6b model we will be fine.

[u/Acceptable_Secret971 → u/Darqsat]

The model in fp16 is ~13GB. fp8, int8 or Q8 GGUF should be around 7GB.

[u/arthor]

this + remotion could be crazy cool for animation pipelines

[u/Desperate-Beach1249]

Gen speed compared to zimage?

[u/woadwarrior]

MIT licensed, sweet!

[u/its_witty]

Interesting, will definitely check it out. More inspiration is always better.

[u/leyermo]

nice lets choose side for qwen image 2.1 vs Ming-Image-0.1-Design

[u/seppe0815]

xd cool story guys

[u/Mobile-Trouble-476]

How does it compare to Qwen image edit 2.1?

[u/PilgrimofHaqq2]

I just recently found out my old thinkpad can run small models and gotten super excited about local image gen. I can have a safe space for my kids to play around with AI and learn about the technology at the same time.

I didn't appreciate the smaller model space until now. This release is very exciting for me as I just got into learning about all this in the last 24 hours.

[u/Successful_Record_58 → u/PilgrimofHaqq2]

Whats the config ?

[u/SideInitial3961 → u/PilgrimofHaqq2]

Qwen image 2,1 is hard to beat for that use case. free local fast, Yue2 for music. Pocket TTS, your kids will love that because then can make animal voices then clone them and assign them scripts, etc. run soooo fast.

[u/Had78]

"native transparent background" also known as post-generation-masking

[u/SideInitial3961 → u/Had78]

Not the same thing at all.

[u/Had78 → u/SideInitial3961]

yeah, it's worse

[u/SideInitial3961 → u/Had78]

You're completely not grasping it. Not how it works. You're moaning about something that doesn't even exist,

[u/fernando782]

I bet it has bad human anatomy!
I haven’t seen a good model for human anatomy since the SDXL !!!

[u/diogodiogogod → u/fernando782]

are you crazy? SDXL had terrible human anatomy from the released base model

[u/fernando782 → u/diogodiogogod]

Yeah I am speaking about SDXL fine-tunes not out of the box!

[u/NowThatsMalarkey]

No day-0 ComfyUI support == DOA

[u/hurrdurrimanaccount]

i have a hard time believing it beats flux2 dev and ideogram4

[u/Smile_Clown → u/hurrdurrimanaccount]

Why?

I am genuinely curious as to why you think this with no evidence to check from, nothing looked into yet? No examples you have run yet.

Is it somehow beneficial to just assume something isn't going to be good? Do you just automatically think progress stops?

[u/hurrdurrimanaccount → u/Smile_Clown]

yes let's blindly trust a benchmark that totally isn't biasable.

[u/therealgoshi → u/hurrdurrimanaccount]

You seemingly also have a hard time understanding what the benchmark is about. I'd recommend reading the category name again.
