Site overview and one-word prompts

0:04 use case it has changed a lot over the past year the largest change being the launch of the website it's a gigantic improvement over Discord for usability Aesthetics inspiration just all around better everything so I've broken everything down with visualizations to help understand every parameter systems for prompting resources style reference explorers tons of examples some more unique workflows and lesser used techniques everything you need to master mid Journey as a complete beginner or a longtime user and once you get the hang of mid Journey it feels like magic [Music] let's Jump Right In here and get oriented with the site I'm not going to talk about anything in Discord this will be solely focused on the site because have generated with different ways to sort them it is the best spot for Endless inspiration using the search box you can search through by keyword to find things for inspiration or to use as style and image references when you click on an image it will show the full prompt and parameters they used click here to use the prompt or here to use it as a style or image reference you can also do that by dragging it up to the prompt bar and you can do that with multiple images to blend them this mushroom has these little lights that made me think of a carousel so I ran with that as

1:49 a style and image reference and came out with this we'll Deep dive into all of that later a really cool feature is when you hover over an image if you click the little magnifying glass it will pull up other similar images I make a habit of liking any images that I really like either the concept or style then I can sort by liked images and see them all you can find amazing inspiration this way to never run out of ideas as you can see I like a lot of weird stuff sometimes it's fun to just find the weirdest picture click the magnifying glass then find the weirdest picture out of those and repeat until you have nightmares or maybe that's just me in the Middle where it says imagine we have the prompt bar to generate just type in here and hit enter I'll start with a single word imagination send it a quick tip is you can hit the up Arrow to get your prompt back into the box this drop down on the right will open up the parameters I'll cover all of those in a second but they're easy to use just slide them around

2:44 and then generate again this number popped up here that shows how many you currently have generated that's on the create tab which I can open and watch them generate and see the prompts and parameters on the side then this archive tab shows all your previous generations as thumbnails so it's easier to look through your history and to organize there's different ways to sort and view these to just images you've upscaled only landscape or portrait or older versions of mid Journey things like that you can change the layout to full so you see the entire images instead of just the square thumbnails or you can change the size and you can search through by date if you hover on the bar on the right so you don't have to scroll through thousands of images to go back I highly recommend getting into the habit of liking good Generations you make so you can find them easier later you can create folders by either manually selecting images hold down shift then click and drag to select or you can also create smart folders so say I want every logo I've made I just type the word logo then mid Journey instantly creates a folder with every

3:38 time I've used the word logo in a prompt I'll also mention that down near the bottom you can switch between light and dark mode or just leave it on dark mode all the time like a normal person now next to create I can see it's finished averages around 30 seconds to complete so I'll click that and these images look amazing and now I can go open up any of these generations and there's a whole list of options I can do with these from here vary upscale reframe repaint a lot of that is pretty intuitive how it works but we'll dive deeper into that as we go through these images are awesome these one-word prompts are really fun to see how mid Journey visualizes a concept you have no idea what's going to come out on the other side but it's fun I've done a bunch of these [Music] [Music] you can prompt with Emojis [Music] too so yeah type a Word get a cool image that's great but we want to have more control the main ways to control the output are through parameters prompting and references you can do all of that right up here it's incredible just how much as possible all within this little area clicking here will let you upload images for image style and character references or drag them here like I showed before the icon on the right gets me back
