Tips for AI image generation

At JetSoftPro, a software development service, we share some tips to help you get the image you need.

1. Be Specific

Clearly describe what you want. Instead of saying “a cat,” try “a fluffy gray cat sitting on a windowsill with a sunny garden outside.” The more details you provide, the better the AI can understand and generate the image you have in mind.

2. Use Clear Descriptions

Avoid vague language. Instead of “happy scene,” specify “a group of friends having a picnic in a park, laughing and eating sandwiches.” Clear descriptions help the AI capture the exact mood and elements you’re looking for.

3. Include Key Details

Mention important aspects of the image. If you need a “man in a suit,” add details like “a man in a navy blue suit standing on a city street during the day with a briefcase.”

4. Avoid Overloading

Don’t include too many elements in one prompt. If you ask for “a beach scene with a dog, a surfboard, and a sunset with palm trees,” the AI might struggle to balance all the elements. Focus on one or two main features.

5. Specify Sizes and Proportions

If size is crucial, include that in your prompt. For example, “a large elephant standing next to a small child” is more helpful than just “an elephant and a child.”

6. Use Common References

Reference well-known objects or scenes. If you want something that looks like a famous painting or movie scene, mention it. For example, “a futuristic cityscape similar to the one in Blade Runner.”

7. State the Style Clearly

If you want a particular artistic style, specify it. For example, “a cartoon-style illustration of a cat” or “a realistic painting of a sunset.”

8. Mention the Setting

Include details about the background or setting. Instead of “a horse,” try “a horse running through a lush green meadow with mountains in the background.”

9. Clarify the Mood or Emotion

Describe the feeling you want the image to convey. For instance, “a serene and calm beach scene at sunrise” communicates a different mood than “a vibrant and lively beach party.”

10. Test and Iterate

Don’t be afraid to refine your prompts. If the first result isn’t quite right, tweak your description and try again. For example, if you get an image of a beach but it’s too crowded, adjust your prompt to “a quiet and empty beach at dawn.”

By the way, if the generated image doesn’t meet your expectations, it’s better to enter a new prompt in a new dialog window. This is because within a single window, all new prompts are considered as refinements to the existing one, rather than as new tasks.
