MIDJOURNEY

MidJourney is a powerful artificial intelligence (AI) powered tool that transforms text into images.
You enter a "prompt" (a descriptive string of words) and the AI language analyzes the text you
enter and then outputsan image by diffusion.

What you get in return for the prompt you enter is a completely new product that never existed
before.

Among other popular AI options (like Stable Diffusion, Dall-E 2, Craiyon, NightCafe) what sets
MidJourney apart is multiple algorithms (V3, V4) and custom parameters (quality, style, chaos), so
much variety from a single idea It really allows you to achieve. Plus, you can create literally
thousands of images per month on the Standard Plan.

If getting started is intimidating, don't stress, read this helpful MidJourney guide and become a
master!

MidJourney runs Discord, a popular chat app. If you don't have an account yet, skip ahead and
sign up for free. It may seem repulsive at first, but you'll get used to it!

Make sure you're signed in to Discord and accept the MidJourney Invitation. I highly recommend
signingup for the $10/month Standard Plan after your trial (or typing
/subscribe to Discord and follow the link).

If you don't want all the clutter of a public channel while working, you can create your own Discord
Server, invite MidJourney Bot, and do all your work in separate channels. You can create channels
for #projects, #test, #help and #images to keep things organized. However, your images and
prompts will still be publicly available on the MidJourney website, but you can pay more for the
Private mode where you can publish or unpublish images.

You can immediately switch to comfortable mode by typing /relax in Discord. I suggest you do all
your work in relaxed mode, then switch to /fast mode only for max boost or if you're really in a
hurry. In /relax mode, the images are free, so you get endless renders!
 BEGINNER COMMANDS
/help > Entering this command displays a host of useful information to help you get started: links to
GitBook, tips, and more.

/subscribe > Trial period is over and you still want more? This command will send you a link that

/relax > Slow mode renders slowerbut takes hours and is unlimited.

/imagine > Click the mastercode to send a prompt,then “prompt:” and after that type your visual
ideas. This is the one we will use the most.
/stealth or /private > If you pay for a Pro Subscription, entering this command will make all your work on
the MidJourney website private, visible only to you.

/public > If you are in Incognito Mode, you can turn it off with this command and make your work visible
to everyone.

When you enter a prompt, the completed images are returned as messages in a grid. It reads like a
book, with the numbers 1 and 2 on the top and the numbers 3 and 4 on the bottom. Then you can use
various buttons to make variations or luxury.

↻ > Returns the same prompt, new seed is used so all images are different.

V1 > Makes variations for the first image, it will make 4 more images based on the selected image so
they will look similar but different.

U1 > Raises the initial view and may change some of the view for better or worse, but that's where the
later high-end options come into play.

WHAT IS A PROMPT?

A prompt is a sentence of text that Midjourney Bot interprets to create an image. Midjourney Bot is
used to render words and phrases in a prompt. A well-crafted prompt can help create unique and
exciting images.

EXAMPLE

/imagine prompt: ultrarealistic

face of a lion warrior
 parameters

ASPECT RATIO PARAMETER

The --aspect or --ar parameter changes the aspect ratio of the generated image. An aspect ratio is the width-
to-height ratio of an image. It is typically expressed as two numbers separated by a colon, such as 7:4 or 4:3.

The --ar parameter will accept any aspect ratio from 1:1 (square) up to the maximum aspect ratio for each
model.

THE "NO" PARAMETER

--no Negative prompting, --no plants would try to remove plants from the image.

THE SEED PARAMETER

Seed
--seed <integer between 0–4294967295> The Midjourney bot uses a seed number to create a field of visual
noise, like television static, as a starting point to generate the initial image grids. Seed numbers are
generated randomly for each image but can be specified with the --seed or --sameseed parameter. Using
the same seed number and prompt will produce similar ending images.
