Making great images with Midjourney is fun, but sometimes the results aren't quite what you hoped for. It takes a little practice to learn what works best. This guide will walk you through simple ways to improve your images and get more of what you envision.
Start with Clear Ideas in Your Prompt
Your prompt is the key to what Midjourney creates. Be specific about what you want to see. Think about the main subject, the setting, and the mood. Adding details helps the AI understand your vision better.
Describe the subject clearly (e.g., a red car, a happy dog).
Add the scene (e.g., on a mountain road, in a park).
Mention the feeling or atmosphere (e.g., peaceful, exciting).
Simple is often better than complicated when you are starting. Build up your prompt step by step.
Use Common Parameters to Adjust Results
Parameters are like settings you add to your prompt. They let you control certain aspects of the image.
Control the Shape with Aspect Ratio
The aspect ratio sets the width and height of your image. Use `--ar width:height` at the end of your prompt. Common ratios are 1:1 (square), 16:9 (widescreen), or 9:16 (tall). Choosing the right shape for your image makes a big difference.
Adjust Style and Randomness
`--stylize` (or `--s`) can make the image more or less artistic. Lower numbers stick closer to your prompt, higher numbers add more of Midjourney's own style. Try different values like `--s 50` or `--s 250`. The `--chaos` (or `--c`) parameter changes how varied the results are. A high number gives you very different options; a low number keeps things similar across the images it generates.
Working with parameters takes practice. It’s a good idea to test a few at a time to see what they do.
Find the Right Style for Your Art
Midjourney can create images in many different artistic styles. You can ask for styles like "photorealistic," "illustration," "watercolor," or specific artist names or art movements. Thinking about the style you want helps guide the AI.
Sometimes, combining style terms works well. For example, "a whimsical illustration of a cat" gives the AI clear direction. You can also use parameter weights to emphasize style if needed.
Managing many prompts and variations can become a lot of work. Tools are available to help. Check out the TitanXT Midjourney Automation Suite if you are creating many images or need to keep track of different prompt ideas.
Making Things Look Similar Consistently
Getting the same character or style across many images can be tricky. Midjourney is always improving on this. Using consistent descriptive words and sometimes using features like "seed" or "vary (region)" can help keep elements similar in different images.
Seed numbers let you redo an image and get similar results starting from the same point. If you find an image you like, note its seed number and use it in future prompts to try and maintain that look or character.
For projects needing high consistency across many generated images, automation can be very helpful. The TitanXT Midjourney Automation Suite is designed to help manage complex prompting tasks and keep results organized.
Putting It All Together
Improving your Midjourney images involves writing clear prompts, using parameters effectively, thinking about style, and practicing ways to keep things consistent. It’s an ongoing learning process. Don't be afraid to experiment and see what happens.
Start simple, add details, and play with settings. The more you create, the better you'll understand how to get the results you want.
Consider exploring tools like the TitanXT Midjourney Automation Suite if you want to streamline your creative process and handle more prompts efficiently.
