10. OpenArt Start by asking a list of questions 1. Do you want a photo or a painting? 2. What’s the subject of the photo? Person? An animal or perhaps a landscape? 3. What details do you want to add? ○ Special Lighting. Soft, ambient, ring light, neon ○ Environment. Indoor, outdoor, underwater, in space ○ Color Scheme. Vibrant, dark, pastel ○ Point of view. Front, Overhead, Side ○ Background. Solid color, nebula, forest 4. In a speciﬁc art style? 3D render, studio ghibli, movie poster 5. A speciﬁc photo type? Macro, telephoto ❗ This is not an all-inclusive list, but will help you get great results when you start your prompt crafting journey. Don’t be afraid to experiment the more you try different prompts the better you will become! Photo of real life Shaggy Rogers, cinematic lighting, peeking from a van's window, vibrant colors, bokeh, movie poster style 10

11. OpenArt Example Answer the following questions 1. 2. 3. 4. Do you want a photo or a painting? => painting What’s the subject of the photo? Person. animal, landscape. => a goldendoodle What details do you want to be added? => wearing a suit a. Special Lighting. Soft, ambient, ring light, neon => natural light b. Environment. Indoor, outdoor, underwater, in space => in the sky c. Color Scheme. Vibrant, dark, pastel => with bright colors In speciﬁc art style? 3D render, studio ghibli, movie poster => by Studio Ghibli Use the answers to create a complete sentence A painting of a cute goldendoodle wearing a suit, natural light, in the sky, with bright colors, by Studio Ghibli See the next page for the generated image. 11

12. OpenArt A painting of a cute goldendoodle wearing a suit, natural light, in the sky, with bright colors, by Studio Ghibli ❗ However, there is a problem. The goldendoodle is NOT in the sky… The AI didn’t take in “in the sky” properly. Worry not! You can change the order of the words a little bit if one part is important. The earlier a word is in the sentence, the more importance it will be given. 12

13. OpenArt A painting of a cute goldendoodle in the sky, wearing a suit, natural light, with bright colors, by Studio Ghibli We moved “in the sky” earlier in the prompt. As you can see, the dog is now “in the sky”. 13

14. OpenArt The order of words is important The order and presentation of our desired output is almost as an important aspect as the vocabulary itself. It is recommended to list your concepts explicitly and separately than trying to cramp it into one simple sentence. A cat sitting on a martian table. A cat that is sitting on a table on mars. A cat that is sitting on a table. The table is on mars. 14

68. OpenArt 05 Stable Diffusion Parameters Prompt Tiny robot scratching his head toy, standing character, soft smooth lighting, soft pastel colors, skottie young, 3d blender render, polycount, modular constructivism, pop surrealism, physically based rendering, square image 68

69. OpenArt Resolution – default is 512x512 This parameter is straight forward. You choose the Width and Height of the generated images. But it’s important to know that the model was trained on 512x512 images, and in general these dimensions provide the best quality and composition, so it is recommended you stick to them as a beginner. 576x448 512x512 Even with all parameters ﬁxed, changing the resolution will completely change the generated image. Although it may have similar colors and composition This parameter increases the required VRAM, and the time needed to generate 69

70. OpenArt Classiﬁer Free Guidance (CFG) – default is 7 You can see this parameter as a “Creativity vs. Prompt” scale. Lower numbers give the AI more freedom to be creative, while higher numbers force it to stick to the prompt. Prompt: a red bird drinking water from a lake, children's book painting CFG: 0 Completely ignores the prompt CFG: 4 Missing the red color CFG: 7 Good balance CFG: 15 Too high Starts creating artifacts This parameter does not affect the VRAM needed, or the generation time. 70

71. OpenArt Step count – default is 50 Stable Diffusion creates an image by starting with a canvas full of noise and denoise it gradually to reach the ﬁnal output, this parameter controls the number of these denoising steps. Usually, higher is better but to a certain degree, for beginners it’s recommended to stick with the default. Steps: 1 Steps: 2 Steps: 40 Steps: 3 Steps: 30 Steps: 4 Steps: 20 Steps: 5 Steps: 10 This parameter does not affect the VRAM needed, but increasing it is directly proportional to the time it takes to generate an image 71

72. OpenArt Seed – default is “random” Seed is a number that controls the initial noise. The seed is the reason that you get a different image each time you generate when all the parameters are ﬁxed. By default, on most implementations of Stable Diffusion, the seed automatically changes every time you generate an image. You can get the same result back if you keep the prompt, the seed and all other parameters the same. Prompt: photo of a rabbit driving a bicycle, in Tokyo at night Seed: 0 Seed: 8 Seed: 18 72

73. OpenArt Sampler Diffusion samplers are the method used to denoise the image during generation, and since they differ in the way of calculating the next step in the image production, they take different durations and different number of steps to reach a usable image. We suggest beginners to use DDIM since it's fast and can usually generate good images with only 10 steps, making it easy and fast to experiment and improve Sampler: PLMS Sampler: DDIM Steps: 10 Steps: 10 kawaii tiny cute unicorn emoji made of clay, iOS emoji , 3D clay blender render, rich vivid colors, smooth gradients, isometric front view, diffuse lighting, octane render, unreal engine 73

74. OpenArt 06 Important Tips Prompt Tiny duck playing on guitar toy, standing character, soft smooth lighting, soft pastel colors, skottie young, 3d blender render, polycount, modular constructivism, pop surrealism, physically based rendering, square image 74

75. OpenArt When to use different CFG values? CFG 2 - 6: Creative, but might not follow the prompt CFG 7 - 10: Recommended for most prompts. Good balance between creativity and guided generation CFG 10 - 15: When you’re sure that your prompt is good/speciﬁc enough. CFG 16 - 20: Not generally recommended unless the prompt is well detailed. Might affect coherence and quality 75

76. OpenArt When to use different CFG values? - Examples CFG: 2 CFG: 7 CFG: 12 CFG: 19 Complete mess We have a rabbit now We got all 3 subjects! Composition seems forced anime illustration of a blue rabbit, riding a scooter near a lake, with the sun in the sky In a prompt with multiple subjects, it’s a good idea to increase the CFG scale 76

77. OpenArt The power of seeds Some seed are just better for a prompt, so try to save a good seed and slightly tweak the prompt to get what you’re looking for while keeping the same composition. This can also be used to test the effect of different modiﬁers. All these images used the same seed and parameters, only change was the prompt Painting of a cute cat holding an umbrella Photo of a cute cat holding an umbrella, at night Photo of a cute dog holding an umbrella Photo of a cute cat holding an umbrella 77

78. OpenArt Token efﬁciency Your prompt is limited effectively to 75 tokens. If you are working with a long prompt try to be efﬁcient with words that do not signiﬁcantly add to your meaning. A typical example is when using an artist as a modiﬁer to get a particular style. Here are a few prompts and their token counts. They all will produce a piece that looks like it was created by Vincent Van Gogh with their associated token counts, ● A horse in the style of Vincent Van Gogh (11) ● A horse in the style of Van Gogh (10) ● A horse by Vincent Van Gogh (7) ● A horse by Van Gogh (6) ● Horse by Van Gogh (6) ● Horse Van Gogh (5) All will accomplish the result but are not exactly the same. 78

79. OpenArt The order of words can be as important as the words themselves This trick is especially useful when trying to make unusual creations. Pink ice cream truck with machine gun mounted on it, technical Machine gun mounted on top of a pink ice cream truck, technical “Using the same seed and sampler” In the above example, the machine gun doesn’t appear unless you put it in the start of the prompt! 79

80. OpenArt Don’t forget about conventional tools! You got a great generation with a messed-up facial features? Use GFP-GAN to ﬁx it (use it online) Close-up portrait photo of a blonde woman on her wedding day Close-up portrait photo of an elderly middle eastern woman smiling, bokeh Portrait photo of a female army soldier during WW1 80

81. OpenArt Negative prompt You can use the negative prompt to tell Stable Diffusion what not to include in the image. This is especially useful when paired with using the same seed for the new generation! First image portrait photo of genghis khan Second image portrait photo of genghis khan 81

82. OpenArt 07 Img2Img in/out painting Prompt Tiny monkey sitting in a frame toy, standing character, soft smooth lighting, soft pastel colors, skottie young, 3d blender render, polycount, modular constructivism, pop surrealism, physically based rendering, square image 82

83. OpenArt Sketch to professional art With img2img you can easily turn any simple sketch to beautiful art using a text description Initial image Generated image Digital painting of a magical pirates ship ﬂoating on a purple mist cloud, over a desert, vibrant colors, 3D pixar render, delicate details, strong sun rays 83

84. OpenArt Converting Styles It is possible for you to change the style of a image by editing the prompt Original Steps: 30 Prompt Steps: 72 Color pencil drawing of a baby duck Starting on 70-90 will keep pretty much everything so use this if you want a small change Starting on 30-40 will keep the main things mostly but edit the details Steps: 16 Starting on 10-20 will remake the image but keep the color and shape so use this if you just like the idea of the image The creation of a new image can sometimes be almost perfect so using img2img can recreate the original image and make it exactly what you want Tip! If your Lower step image looks better than your higher one then you can use img2img to recreate the better lining but getting the detail you want Prompt Digital art of a baby duck 84

85. OpenArt Img2Img Variation Img2Img is useful for creating a variation of a image and getting similar images If you wish to create a image but something isn't quite right you can use Img2Img to remake the image With This you can see that it changed the layout and the time of day but kept the idea of the original image First image Second image cherry blossom In a empty park, by Thomas Kinkade cherry blossom In a empty park, by Thomas Kinkade 85

86. OpenArt Img2Img+Multi Ai Issues Now this method may not always give what you want because dalle cannot do long prompts well Its good at recreating faces but it also may mess up some elements in a landscape Digital art of a Cherry blossom landscape by Yoji shinkawa, by Makoto Shinkai, by Frank Frazetta Digital art of a Cherry blossom landscape by Yoji shinkawa, by Makoto Shinkai, by Frank Frazetta Digital art of a bearded man around Cherry blossoms by Yoji shinkawa, by Makoto Shinkai, by Frank Frazetta Digital art of a bearded man around Cherry blossoms by Yoji shinkawa, by Makoto Shinkai, by Frank Frazetta 86

87. OpenArt Img2Img Variations Low Strength Img2Img is useful for creating a variation of a image and getting similar images At times the image at the start will be correct but not the face you want so if you use Img2Img with a low strength you can recreate the image until you get a face you like. With This you can see that it changed the face to Gordon. The issue is that this image was the most creative but it failed to give it the right face.
