Type out a detailed description of your desired scene using plain English. Mention specific styles, color palettes, and any exact text you want visible.
The engine thrives on detail: instead of "a dog outside," try "a golden retriever running through autumn leaves in Central Park, warm afternoon sunlight, 85mm lens, shallow depth of field."
Select an available resolution, output format, background option, and artistic style in the tool you are using.
We support multiple aspect ratios to fit your needs: 1:1 for social feeds, 16:9 for widescreen slides, 9:16 for Reels, and classic 4:3.
Submit the prompt, review the result, and refine it with follow-up instructions when the selected tool supports iterative editing.
Output quality, processing time, and usage rights vary by model and provider. Review the applicable terms before commercial use.
Have a base picture? Use an image-to-image workflow to edit, restyle, or transform existing photos using text commands. Common uses include upgrading rough sketches, replacing backgrounds, and applying artistic filters.
Image-to-Image uses the same rendering engine, quality controls, and aspect ratio options as Text-to-Image, so you can keep visual consistency across edits and fresh generations.
Open the image-to-image interface and add reference pictures in the formats and file sizes accepted by the selected tool. Use them as the visual foundation for the next iteration.
Write a clear prompt explaining what elements to preserve and what to alter. Example: "Keep the subject but change her outfit to cyberpunk armor" or "Transform this pencil sketch into a photorealistic portrait."
Generate the new image and compare it with your original. If the result needs adjustment, refine the text instructions and iterate toward the intended aesthetic.
Prompt structure strongly influences the results you get. Use these techniques as a practical starting point.
A practical reference size for web design, social media feeds, digital presentations, and blog headers when supported by the selected provider.
A higher-resolution reference for e-commerce listings, digital advertisements, and marketing campaigns when that option is available.
Higher-resolution settings can be useful for print jobs and large-format layouts when the selected provider makes them available.
For images containing text such as movie posters, UI mockups, or infographics, spell out the exact wording and wrap it in quotes. This pattern can help when working with GPT Image 2 and other models that support text rendering.
