How to Get Great Results
- Step 1
Define the goal in one line
Lead with subject + action + style (e.g., 'loot icon: ruby amulet on dark velvet, studio sweep light, crisp edges').
- Step 2
Iterate in micro‑steps
Change one attribute per pass—palette, background, or a single gear swap—to stay fast and predictable.
- Step 3
Use img2img to avoid drift
When you like the framing, switch to image‑to‑image and nudge details while preserving composition.
- Step 4
Promote to a flagship model
Once the idea is locked, move to HiDream Full, Flux.Pro, or Juggernaut for final polish.
