Have you ever wanted to create amazing AI art like the images you've seen online? It's now easier than ever, even if you're a complete beginner. This guide will show you how to use Midjourney, a powerful AI art generator, to bring your visions to life.
Getting Started with Midjourney
The easiest way to use Midjourney is through Discord. If you don't have a Discord account, go to discord.com and download the app. Discord is a platform similar to WhatsApp, but designed for communities. Once you've signed up, you're ready to join the Midjourney server.
Joining the Midjourney Server
To join the Midjourney server, simply go to discord.gg/midjourney. You'll find the link in the description as well. Once you accept the invite, you'll be part of the Midjourney community and can start creating art. To start, navigate to one of the "newbie" channels.
Creating Your First AI Artwork
Now for the fun part! In a newbie channel, type "/imagine" followed by a description of what you want to create. This is where you tell the AI what to generate. The more descriptive you are, the better the results will be.
Example Prompt and Settings
Let's say you want to create a realistic and detailed image of a dragon rider. You could type something like: "/imagine dragon rider, highly detailed, realistic". To ensure the best results, add "--V 4" to your prompt. This tells Midjourney to use version 4 of its algorithm, which produces superior images. Also, use "--ar" to pick the aspect ratio you want. Some options are 2:3, 1:1, or 3:2. So you would type something like "/imagine dragon rider, highly detailed, realistic --V 4 --ar 2:3". After entering your prompt, hit Enter and wait for Midjourney to generate your images.

Understanding the Results
Midjourney will generate four different versions of your image based on your prompt. Below the images, you'll see several buttons: U1, U2, U3, U4, V1, V2, V3, V4 and a refresh button. Here's what they mean:
U stands for "Upscale". If you like a particular version, press the corresponding U button to get a higher resolution version of that image.
V stands for "Variation". If you like the general style of an image but want to see more variations, press the corresponding V button. Midjourney will then generate four new images similar to the one you selected.
The refresh button reruns your prompt. Midjourney will generate a new grid of four images based on your initial prompt.
Example Workflow
If version 3 is closest to your vision, select "V3" to create four more variations based on that image. Then, if you decide that version 2 of the new set is the best, select "U2" to upscale it to a high resolution.
Free vs. Paid Usage
Midjourney offers 25 free generations, allowing you to experiment and create a variety of images. After that, you can subscribe for $10 a month to get 100 generations. A paid subscription also allows you to generate images privately, as the free generations are public.
