Use Cases

  • Professional Design: Create high-quality visuals for commercial projects
  • Marketing & Advertising: Generate premium imagery for campaigns
  • Digital Art: Produce gallery-quality digital artwork
  • Product Concepts: Visualize product ideas and prototypes
  • Editorial Content: Create unique illustrations for articles and publications

Tips for Best Results

  1. Detailed Prompts: DALL-E 3 excels with comprehensive descriptions

    • Good: "A serene Japanese garden in autumn with red maple leaves falling onto a stone path, traditional wooden bridge over a koi pond, soft morning light filtering through bamboo"
    • Avoid: "A garden"
  2. Quality vs Speed: Choose based on your needs

    • Standard: Faster generation, good for drafts and iterations
    • HD: Superior detail and clarity, ideal for final production
  3. Style Selection:

    • Vivid: Perfect for creative, artistic, and eye-catching content
    • Natural: Better for realistic, documentary, or subtle imagery
  4. Aspect Ratios: Match your use case

    • 1024x1024: Social media posts, avatars, balanced compositions
    • 1792x1024: Banners, headers, landscape photography
    • 1024x1792: Portraits, mobile-first content, vertical compositions
  5. Prompt Enhancement: DALL-E 3 automatically enhances prompts

    • The model expands and improves your description
    • Check the revised_prompt in the response to see enhancements

Notes

  • DALL-E 3 generates only 1 image per request (unlike DALL-E 2's multiple image capability)
  • The model automatically enhances prompts for better results
  • HD quality takes longer but provides significantly more detail
  • Best suited for high-quality, professional image generation
  • Excels at understanding and depicting complex scenes and concepts
