Creating images
Generate an image from a prompt
Create an image with a clear subject, composition, style, and optional reference images.
Updated
- Open Create Image and choose Text to Image.
- Select a model and describe the image you want.
- Add reference images if the selected model supports them. Explain the role of each reference in the prompt.
- Choose an available aspect ratio and resolution. Check the updated credit estimate.
- Generate, then open the completed image in Projects to inspect it at a larger size and download it.
A useful prompt structure
Describe the subject first, then composition, background, lighting, and visual style. For example: A matte green skincare bottle centered on a pale stone pedestal, soft morning light from the left, clean beige background, realistic product photography, generous empty space above the bottle.
- Choose portrait, landscape, or square according to where the image will be used.
- If text must appear in the image, provide the exact wording and check the generated spelling carefully.
- Refine one or two details between attempts so you can tell which changes helped.
A larger resolution does not guarantee a better composition. Review the image before creating additional variations.
Try this workflow
Choose an image model, describe your idea, and review the credit estimate before generating.
