What I Realized Taking part in Round with Midjourney’s Style Tuner | by Alex Tully | Nov, 2023

Lots of individuals within the AI artwork neighborhood are speaking about Midjourney’s new characteristic to generate customized kinds. But there’s barely something written about tips on how to use it successfully. If you don’t know what I’m speaking about, Midjourney does job of explaining the fundamentals right here. The solely factor I discovered unclear within the documentation is that after you’ve spent your quick minutes to create a “Style Tuner web page” (the set of 32 pairs of pictures, or 64 or nevertheless many you requested for), you may generate a limiteless variety of type codes from that with out spending something extra. That half was a bit unclear to me.

But when you perceive what it’s about, I’m certain the next questions will likely be in your thoughts:

1. How many pictures ought to I get Midjourney to make for one type tuner web page? In different phrases: What’s the bottom quantity of quick minutes I must burn to get a method that displays what I would like?
2. Once I’ve created a method tuner web page, what’s the optimum variety of pictures to pick out?
3. Midjourney’s documentation states that “The --stylize parameter adjusts the affect of the –style parameter in your generated pictures.” But what’s an optimum quantity for — stylize?
4. What is the impact of various kinds of base prompts (what you enter at first to generate the type tuner web page)?
5. What occurs once I use a customized type to make a picture that’s very totally different from the bottom immediate?
6. How do all of the above interaction with each other?

I’ll start by answering #2, as a result of #1 will reply itself as I am going by means of the others. For now, let’s simply say that it wildly differed relying on what sort of base immediate I used.

Base Prompt for Landscape

The first base immediate I used was for fairly a practical picture: post_glacial panorama with tropical palm_trees and lithophytic tree_ferns, dense_fog, dawn, Tyndall_effect, crepuscular_rays, shiny, heat, vivid, saturated colors, intricate geometric fractal_patterns — no ice, snow, glaciers — type uncooked

(if you wish to know why I put underscores within the immediate, please learn this put up)

Just working the prompts generated pictures just like the beneath (left is with a worth of fifty for — stylize, proper is with a worth of 750).
