Thanks for sharing your feedback!
Explore unconventional aesthetics with the experimental --weird or --w parameter. This parameter introduces quirky and offbeat qualities to your generated images, resulting in unique and unexpected outcomes.
--weird accepts values: 0–3000.
The default --weird value is 0.
--weird is a highly experimental feature. What's weird may change over time
--weird is compatible with Midjourney Model Versions 5, 5.1, 5.2, 6, niji 5 and niji 6
--weird is not fully compatible with seeds
The Influence of Weird on Jobs
The optimal --weird value is dependent on the prompt and requires experimentation. Try starting with smaller values, such as 250 or 500, and then go up/down from there. If you want a generation to be conventionally attractive and weird, try mixing higher --stylize values with --weird. Try starting with similar values for both. Example /imagine prompt cyanotype cat --stylize 250 --weird 250.
prompt example: /imagine prompt cyanotype cat --weird 250
--weird 0
--weird 250
--weird 500
--weird 1000
prompt example: /imagine prompt lithograph potato --weird 250
--weird 0
--weird 250
--weird 500
--weird 1000
prompt example: /imagine prompt clockwork chicken --weird 250
--weird 0
--weird 250
--weird 500
--weird 1000
What's the difference between --weird, --chaos, and --stylize?
--chaos controls how diverse the initial grid images are from each other.
--stylize controls how strongly Midjourney's default aesthetic is applied.
--weird controls how unusual an image is compared to previous Midjourney images.
How to Use the Weird Parameter
Add --weird <value> or --w <value> to the end of your prompt.
