Variations Image Tool: Generate Variations of Your Ideas

Basic Steps for Using From Image

Step 1: Select "Variations" from Top Menu

To begin, click on the "Variations" button located in the central top menu of the interface. This will open the Variations Image Tool, where you can customize your settings and create stunning visualizations.

Step 2: Upload Your Reference Image

Drag and drop your image into the Reference Image box or click "Browse" to upload from your computer. You can also search through previously uploaded images.
Example: Upload a furniture sketch, an interior space render, or an existing product photo to enhance or modify.

Step 3: Specify Number of Images

Set the number of images you want to generate. You can experiment with multiple variations to explore different styles and options.

Step 4: Adjust the Strength

The Strength slider determines how much influence the reference image has on the output:

• Low Strength (e.g., 0.3): Allows the prompt to influence the image more, providing room for creative changes.
• High Strength (e.g., 0.8): Maintains more of the original structure and details from the reference image.

Example:

• Low strength: Use a simple room design but prompt for "a futuristic interior design with metallic furniture."
• High strength: Keep the original room structure but change materials or colors.

Step 5: Adjust the Seed (Optional)

The seed allows you to control the randomness of your image generation. Modifying the seed produces variations of the same idea.

• Keep the same seed for consistent results.
• Change the seed to explore new possibilities.

Step 6: Enter Your Prompt

This is where your creativity takes center stage! Write a detailed description of the image you want to create. Include specific details like colors, styles, materials, lighting, and atmosphere.

Example: "A modern living room with a wooden dining table, chairs, plants, and minimalist decor, with natural light and a cozy yet elegant ambiance."

You can write prompts in any language - Generate understands them all.

Step 7: Generate Your Images

Once your settings are ready:

1. Click Generate to produce your images.
2. Review and refine your prompt or settings to get exactly what you need.
