Making Images on midjourney.com
1. Make Images from the Imagine Bar
At the top of most pages on the website, you'll see the imagine bar. To start making images, type a prompt into the bar and hit enter.
Once your images start generating, you can find them on the Create tab. Click over to see your results.
2. Make Variations
From the Create tab, you can see all the images you've made. Click on an image to open the lightbox. Once you have an image you like, you can make new versions with variations.
The lightbox also shows additional tools to help you refine and experiment with your images. Learn more about other buttons in the lightbox on their feature pages: Upscale, Reframe, Repaint.
3. Change Your Settings
The button in the imagine bar lets you set default parameters for all your prompts. You can adjust the aspect ratio, stylization, and variety of your images, or adjust your generation speed and stealth.
4. Use Images in Your Prompts
Midjourney can use existing images as inspiration for brand new ones. If you see an image you like on the Explore page, or want to use an image you generated as a style reference for a totally new prompt, drag and drop that image to the imagine bar.
There are three different ways you can use images:
For a deep dive into using reference images, check out our Working with Images on Web page.
5. Save and Manage Images
If you're ready to download your images, or want to filter or organize them, visit the Archive tab.
Wherever you see the button, you can click to save an individual image. You can also download your images in bulk by clicking outside the grid and dragging to make a selection.
You can find more information about the filters and other options on the Archive here.
6. Create Collaboratively with Chat
Nothing beats the creative energy that comes from making images with others! On the Chat tab, you can find (or create!) shared spaces to work together with other users.
Need some inspiration? Check out the Daily Theme chat every day to pick up a new theme for your prompts! Hang out there to see the creative ways other users are incorporating the day's theme, or create alongside them.
