Guide to Using the Image Generation Model Effectively
This guide covers best practices and recommended settings for a variety of use cases. Adjust the parameters below to find the ideal balance between creativity, quality, and performance.
1. Crafting Your Prompt
- •Be concise but descriptive: focus on lighting, color, mood, and subject.
- •Example: “A misty mountain valley at sunrise with golden light filtering through pine trees.”
2. Steps (1–16)
- •Controls the number of refinement iterations.
- •8–12 steps: fast previews, moderate quality.
- •12–16 steps: highest detail, longer processing time.
- •Recommendation: start at 10, increase if you need sharper details.
3. Seed
- •seed = -1: each generation is unique.
- •fixed seed (e.g., 42): reproducible outputs for consistent batches.
- •Use fixed seeds when you need the same style across multiple runs.
4. Guidance Scale (1.0–20.0) [Advanced]
- •Lower (1.0–3.0): more creative, can deviate from prompt.
- •Medium (3.0–7.0): balanced adherence and creativity.
- •High (7.0–12.0+): very literal to prompt, less variation.
- •Default: 3.0 for general use.
5. Aspect Ratio
- •16:9 – Cinematic scenes, desktop wallpapers
- •1:1 – Social media posts (Instagram)
- •9:16 – Mobile wallpapers, vertical stories
- •4:3, 3:2, etc. – Standard print or gallery formats
6. Image Format
- •png – Lossless, best for graphics and transparency
- •jpeg – Smaller file size, ideal for web photos
- •webp – Good compression with quality retention
7. Quality (10–100)
- •80–90: web use, fast download
- •90–100: print media, high fidelity
- •Lower values speed up generation and reduce file size.
8. Base64 Output [Advanced]
- •Enable for embedding images directly in HTML/CMS.
- •Disable for saving as standalone files or URLs.
