Who are the Creators?
Creators (also referred to as “3D Creators“, “3D Artists“, “Client“, “GPU Requesters“, and “Users“) are individuals, studios, or anyone creating digital visuals who require additional GPU power to render their projects. They are the demand-side participants of the Pictor Network, renting the network’s GPU computing resources to accelerate their rendering jobs.
Using the Pictor Network
Accessing Decentralized GPU Rendering Services
The Pictor Network, as a Decentralized Render Farm, provides Web3 GPU rendering services, allowing Creators to access abundant GPU resources worldwide to speed up their rendering process at a fraction of the time and cost. To use the Pictor Network’s rendering services, Creators can choose from two options:
- Option 1: Pictor Cloud
Using Pictor Network’s Web 3 Rendering Services through a web-based interface. This method doesn’t require significant hardware power from the Creator’s computer.
- Option 2: Pictor Render App (*Coming Soon)
Use the All-in-One Pictor Render app which integrates all Pictor Network’s services for a simple and seamless experience. The app integrates with Pictor’s proprietary protocols for efficient big data transfer.
System Requirements for Pictor Render app:
- Operating System:
- Windows: 7/8/10 (32-bit & 64-bit) and 11 (64-bit)
- macOS: Catalina or later
- Linux: Ubuntu 18.04 or later
- RAM: 4GB
- Free Disk Space: 2GB
Note: The provided requirements may change based on actual conditions to ensure optimal network operation.
Payment Options
Creators pay for the GPU computing power rented to execute their render projects to Pictor Workers using either PICTOR tokens or USD.
- PICTOR Token Payment: Requires a cryptocurrency wallet.
- USD Payment: No cryptocurrency wallet required.
