Create your first image in 30 seconds
- Select Image Generation on the home page.
- Choose a model, image size, and aspect ratio.
- Enter a prompt. If you use an edit model, upload a reference image too.
- Review the credit cost and select Generate.
- Preview and download the result from My Images, or revise the prompt and try again.
For a first attempt, keep the default model and size. Describe the subject, setting, and style clearly before adding smaller details.
A practical prompt formula
Use: subject + action/state + setting + composition + lighting + color + style + essential details.
Example: A young woman in a white trench coat standing outside a convenience store on a rainy night, holding a transparent umbrella, medium shot, subject on the right, blue and violet neon reflected on wet pavement, cinematic lighting, shallow depth of field, crisp detail.
Useful habits:
- Put the most important subject first and replace vague words such as “beautiful” with visible details.
- Specify framing: close-up, medium shot, full body, overhead, low angle, symmetrical, or rule of thirds.
- Specify lighting: soft window light, backlight, neon, golden hour, or high contrast.
- For text in an image, provide the exact short copy, placement, color, and desired type style.
- Change only one or two variables per retry so you can tell what improved the result.
Text generation and reference editing
Use a text-to-image model when creating from scratch. Use a model marked Edit when identity, product appearance, or the main composition should come from a reference image. For edits, state what must remain, what must change, and the target look.
Example: Preserve the face and hairstyle from the reference. Change the outfit to a black evening gown and the background to a gold theater lobby. Warm overhead light, full-body composition, realistic cinematic finish.
Image model guide
| Model | Best for | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Seedream v5.0 Pro | Detailed characters, posters, scenes, and complex directions | A strong general starting point; describe composition and light |
| Seedream v5.0 Pro Edit | Reference-based transformations and identity/product consistency | Explicitly separate what to preserve from what to change |
| Wan 2.7 | General creation at 1K or 2K | Useful for exploring formats and creative directions |
| Wan 2.7 Pro | Higher-resolution output up to 4K | Use after the composition is settled |
| Wan 2.7 Edit | Reference-based image changes | Start with a clear primary reference and avoid conflicting edits |
| Wan 2.6 Text/Edit | Multi-format creation with exact pixel sizes | Choose it when a specific output dimension matters |
Available models, defaults, and prices may be updated by the platform. Always use the options currently shown in the creation panel.
Troubleshooting
- Character identity changes: reuse one clear reference and keep age, hair, outfit, and style descriptions consistent.
- Crowded or misplaced subjects: reduce the number of subjects and state their positions explicitly.
- Unexpected output: shorten the prompt to its key constraints, establish composition first, then add material, lighting, and mood.
- Generate is unavailable: check that required references finished uploading and that the chosen model supports the current mode.
