What is Image Prompt?
Think of an Image Prompt as the “visual shorthand” for your creative ideas. Instead of relying solely on words, you provide a starting image; a photo, a sketch, or even a previous generation to act as a structural anchor. You simply upload or drag your image into the Image Prompt field, and the AI uses it as a foundational layer of inspiration. It’s like a conversation where your image sets the scene, and your text prompt provides the direction.How to use Image Prompt

Upload your reference image
You can upload any image from your device by clicking the ”+” button to open the file browser, or simply drag and drop an image directly into the field. Supported formats include JPEG, PNG, and WEBP. For best results, use a clear, well-lit image that reflects the composition or style you want the AI to draw inspiration from.-1.avif?fit=max&auto=format&n=2i1lxqk1SMoBGaWs&q=85&s=df79703587221808f4510d79c5832b95)
Write your text prompt
Once uploaded, the AI will analyse your image and use it as a visual foundation alongside your text prompt. The more relevant your image is to your desired outcome, the more accurately the AI can capture the mood, structure, and style you’re going for. You’ll see a thumbnail preview of your uploaded image in the field confirming it’s been applied.-1.avif?fit=max&auto=format&n=2i1lxqk1SMoBGaWs&q=85&s=21f6c2d58f1fc7c52a515d1ff14fb68c)
