Example
"A fox in a library" gives a random result. With this tool it becomes a watercolor painting of a red fox curled up asleep on a stack of old books in a quiet library, with soft natural light, a medium shot, a cozy mood and a warm palette, plus a negative prompt that keeps out blur, text and cropping.
Tips for better AI images
- Put the most important thing first. Most tools pay more attention to the start of a prompt.
- Change one setting at a time so you can see what each choice does.
- Use the aspect ratio for the place you will post it, such as 9:16 for stories or 16:9 for YouTube.
- Respect other people's work. Avoid copying living artists, real people or brand logos.
