  1. Ultra-Detailed Prompts: Be extremely specific and descriptive

    • Good: "Hyperrealistic portrait of an elderly wizard with intricate silver beard, piercing blue eyes, wearing ornate purple robes with golden embroidery, dramatic studio lighting"
    • Avoid: "Old wizard"
  2. Professional Negative Prompts: Use comprehensive exclusions

    • Examples: "blurry, low quality, distorted, pixelated, amateur, watermark, text, logo, signature"
  3. Aspect Ratios for Quality: Choose ratios that complement your subject

    • 16:9: Perfect for landscape and architectural scenes
    • 2:3: Ideal for portrait compositions
    • 1:1: Great for social media and balanced compositions
  4. Style Presets for Premium Results:

    • photographic: For ultra-realistic images
    • fantasy-art: For epic fantasy illustrations
    • cinematic: For movie-quality scenes
    • digital-art: For premium digital artwork
  5. Reference Images: Use the stable_image_ultra_image parameter for image-to-image generation

    • Upload reference image via Asset API first
    • Adjust strength parameter to control influence (0.3-0.8 recommended)
  6. Seed Management: Use consistent seeds for series or variations

Advanced Features

Image-to-Image Generation

Stable Image Ultra supports using a reference image to guide generation:

  1. Upload your reference image using the Asset API
  2. Set stable_image_ultra_image to the uploaded image path
  3. Adjust stable_image_ultra_strength to control how closely the output follows the reference
    • 0.3-0.5: Loose inspiration from reference
    • 0.5-0.7: Balanced influence
    • 0.7-1.0: Strong adherence to reference
