As you probably know, Flickr landscape pre-trained model could not be released in this repo. But that model can draw landscapes with unbelievable quality, much higher than that of coco-stuff, due to training on 40k Flickr images; the fact that it hasn't been released is disappointing.

Some of us probably want to train it yourself. (Me for one, and also @Lokiiiiii brought this up) Typically it would cost a few thousand dollars. Thankfully, Product Hunt offers a paid subscription which basically offers $5000 AWS credits for $720: https://www.producthunt.com/ship#launch (Product Hunt Ship Pro, yearly subscription)

This gets the cost down to $720, but it's still a lot. Since a few of us are going to do the same exact thing, why don't we train the model together and share the cost? $720 split among 5 people is already $144, which is fair for such a powerful model.

Once we have a few people in, we can start a crowdfunding campaign, pledge funds, train the model and share it among us.

What do you think of this?
