1) Ditch Discord, embrace the MidJourney web app at http://midjourney.com/. It’s a game-changer, folks!
2) Explore the "Explore" tab for inspiration. Use the search icon to find similar vibes and styles. Pro tip: Save prompts and styles you love for future use.
3) Style references are your secret weapon! Use the paperclip icon to apply a style without pulling in subject matter. It’s all about aesthetic, baby!
4) SREF codes = style coordinates in a multidimensional space. There are 4.6 BILLION options! Mix and match for endless possibilities.
5) Balance is key! Play with style weights, personalization, and text prompts to find the perfect harmony. It’s like mixing paint, but WAY cooler.
6) Personalization is a MUST. Rate 1000+ images to teach MidJourney your aesthetic preferences. It’ll change your AI art game forever.
7) Use the editor to refine and expand your creations. Add frames, change backgrounds, and bring your digital art into the real world!
8) Permutation prompts let you test multiple parameter values at once. Efficiency FTW!
9) Think of MidJourney as a new artistic medium. It’s not just AI – it’s a whole new way to blend aesthetics and solve creative problems.
10) The future is here: AI-powered robots painting, playing music, and bringing digital art to life. Get ready for the creative revolution!
Remember: MidJourney isn’t about playing slots. It’s about mastering a new artistic language. Now go create some masterpieces!
