Use Cases

• Creative Exploration: Generate multiple artistic interpretations of your images
• Content Creation: Create variations for social media, marketing materials
• Design Iteration: Explore different visual directions for your projects

Tips for Best Results

1. Aspect Ratios: Use supported ratios from the list above:
   • 1:1 - Perfect for Instagram posts and profile pictures
   • 4:5 - Ideal for portrait-oriented social media content
   • 3:2 - Standard landscape photography ratio
   • 7:4 - Great for wide banners and headers
2. Generation Mode: Choose 'fast' for quick iterations or 'relax' for best quality
3. Niji 6 Mode: Enable for anime/manga style variations
4. Variation Count: Adjust 'n' parameter to generate 1-10 variations as needed

Notes

• Midjourney 5.2 automatically generates 4 variations per request
• The service first describes your image, then uses that description to create variations
