I tried that but I only got four hits, all for celebrities: Jenna Ortega, Jessica Alba, Kate Upton, and Alanah Pearce (whoever she is.) I even joined Civitai but got the same four hits.
Someone need updated prescription.

Plus, where do I put the base model files when I find something, and what is this thing about Lora and checkpoints?
Checkpoints, different name for base models. Large files, some 6..7 GB each that tells the AI about a specialized field. There's generalist ones, like SD1.5, 2.0, 2.1 Jack of all trades and there are specialized ones, like SDXXXL (nudity) or others about Animes or classical painters. I prefer Juggernaut, the default for Fooocus, as it gives decent results.
LORA are much smaller files, that contain specific info about a certain celebrity or specific painter, in the previous example. LORA's are trained to supplement certain base models (or checkpoints, same thing) and work best in tandem with those base models.
When you download a certain LORA makes sure to notice what base model was trained for. If it says SD1.5 you're not in luck as this specific implementation, Fooocus doesn't work with SD1.5 , it has its own generalist base models.
You can use another SD distribution instead of Fooocus, that works with SD1.5 if you totally must run a certain LORA that only works in SD1.5 you can try Automatic1111 that's not as user friendly as Fooocus but accepts SD1.5
Also important in LORA is the trigger word, the word(s) you must include in the prompt to appeal the info in LORA. It's listed on civitai, when you download LORAs.
Finally, the place to load them is to click ADVANCED checkbox, then MODEL, and there you enter your base model and the LORA(s). You can use up to five LORAs simultaneously with various degree of strength but only one base model (or checkpoint).
The location is in the folder MODELS under the main folder instalation for Fooocus, subfolder CHECKPOINTS for basemodels and subfolder LORAS for ... LORAs.
