Ideogram, particularly sensitive to how your prompt is constructed, the words you use, the semantics and punctuation. Here, we will cover some few tips to get the most out of your prompts and generate the best possible results.
In your prompt, if you write: “A painting of a cat.” you will probably get something painterly. But being precise might get you better results.
As you can see, precision determines the kind of painting you want. The same applies to just about everything you want to put in your prompt. The more precise you are, the more likely you are to generate the image you want.
If you're short of words or inspiration, the Magic Prompt function can come in handy.
Ideogram AI, version 1.0 and up, will be very observant of the instructions you put in your prompt. Here are a few examples:
See how Ideogram can adhere to what you describe in your prompt, often with great precision. Of course, there are times when Ideogram can't seem to generate exactly what you describe in your message. The following section may be able to provide you with some help.
In this example we will see how a simple notion or a simple word may affect the image being generated.
Here we want a photographic portrait of a young boy, from the waist up. We also want to describe as many elements and other aspects as possible.
Can you see the difference? If you describe something, the AI will always try to show it to you, even if you've specifically asked for a certain style that usually prevent you from seeing it. By simply removing some unnecessary descriptions, we were able to get exactly what we wanted.
Huge, big, normal, small, minuscule… Using the right qualifier to describe the importance of an element in an image is a simple way of defining an order of proportion. Let's look at an example:
Prompt: A striking and vivid magazine cover, featuring an anthropomorphic cat exuding wealth and success sitting on an armchair, a paws on each arm. The cat is dressed in a tailored suit and dark sunglasses, striking a confident pose in an opulent living room. The huge magazine modern title in sans-serif font of "Cat Life" dominates the cover, a smaller mention "magazine" just under it on the right side, while the big headline "How I Make Them Clean the Litter Box Every Day" piques the reader's curiosity. The second smaller headline read: "The full story". The dynamic lighting enhances Mr. Whiskers' regal presence, making this a truly unique and memorable cover.
The simple way of describing the relative sizes for each text element was sufficient to produce an expected result.
Due to the complexity of the text and visual composition, this image needed more than one attempt to get it done like this.
