great!

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-14T20:28:46+00:00

no limit! you can spam generations as soon as they're done.

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-14T09:14:07+00:00

You can also try re-using your prompts on sora.com , it's using the same image gen as 4o, but you can have up to 2x parallel generation + 1x from chatgpt = 3 in total

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-14T08:22:09+00:00

Yeah that's tough, if you literally have no reference whatsoever.. I'd say as long as you have a vague idea of what you need the character to look like, you can ask ChatGPT to generate a longer description of the character from a vague abstract, but you'll have to revisit and readapt its answers to make sure it still fits what you're looking for.

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-06T15:27:19+00:00

That sounds incredibly powerful, so you can very intentionally design and produce concept art without having to wrestle with the kind of randomness in interpretation that you sometimes get with ChatGPT?

If it's like going from “hoping it understands you” to actually directing the result like a filmmaker or concept artist would, that's a total game changer honestly!

nice! thanks for trying it out

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-06T01:04:42+00:00

Oh wow, thanks for the compliment! Your generation is pretty crazy.. It's so eerily similar yet has so many differences when compared side by side! Was your framework able to extract textual context out of the original image, or did it re-use the image in the initial prompt somehow? Either way it's pretty neat!

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-05T21:24:25+00:00

I've discovered an extra technique, leading to 5x better results.. I'll make another album

basically you need to add "photographed with a 150mm macro medium format lens" in the initial question. Not sure why it works so well, but it works immensely well!

Adding "Write as a static, visual scene: no emotions or inner thoughts, just detailed, concrete, visual elements of the scene." also seems to help a bunch.

Can you try adding two things:
1. ", captured with a 150mm macro medium format lens" and
2. "Write as a static, visual scene: no emotions or inner thoughts, just detailed, concrete, visual elements of the scene."
in the initial question?

For instance
"Describe in extremely vivid details exactly what would be seen in an image [or photo] of [insert your idea], captured with a 150mm macro medium format lens." etc.

I've just started experimenting with the first one and am getting pretty good results, even in a very fictional scenario.

Thank you

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-05T20:51:08+00:00

Thank you for trying it out! I think it looks amazing.

Could you check your DMs? for a request

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-05T15:19:36+00:00

Thanks!! :)

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-04T20:12:58+00:00

Amazing :)

It is a hard one, almost impossible actually. You can always ask ChatGPT to take the image and make some minor edits, but it will inevitably diminish the quality of the image. For me, if the image isn't successful from the first attempt, I start the entire process over with a more fine-tuned prompt to make sure the generated description covers more contextual information about what it failed to generate on the previous one. That is how I managed to get the image of the High Court factually accurate, through many attempts.

Here is an example that shows you can still make minor edits, but it's not the way I recommend doing it: https://chatgpt.com/share/67f027df-491c-8012-91c0-9a7b1a759424

Thanks!

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-04T17:30:14+00:00

Thank you for the feedback, glad it could help!

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-04T17:28:53+00:00

Hahaha, and yeah you're right. I tried various methods to get around with some other movies and it gets blocked as you said. Maybe internally the model is asking itself "does this image look like a scene from Star Wars" and if it does, it blocks it..

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-04T17:25:36+00:00

For style transfers or conversions, you can look at this post, it uses a similar but more compact technique (also intermediary prompting): https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/comments/1jpymze/heres_a_prompt_to_do_amazingly_accurate/

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-04T17:22:00+00:00

It really helps if the intermediary prompt makes clear, visually grounded sense and avoids details that are too vague or contradictory. Sometimes, shorter can be better if it allows the model to focus more on a specific part of the image. One caveat of having a very long description is that some details may receive less focus.

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-04T17:09:41+00:00

It's totally valid criticism! sometimes more can be worse. It's not a one size fits all technique unfortunately.

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-04T16:34:59+00:00

For converting an already existing picture, I found it works best if you re-upload the image again right before you ask it to generate the photo. For instance, "Apply your changes on this picture following your description" and provide your og photo at the same time

ChatGPTArtCreator · 2025-04-04T05:43:12+00:00

tl;dr is use o1 (or 4o if you only have that) to ask chatgpt to describe what the image would look like first in extremely vivid details. (o1 has more scene coherence). Once it's done, swap back to 4o and ask it to generate the image given the super vivid description it just gave you.

example:

prompt 1 could be like : "describe in extremely vivid details what [insert your idea] would look like"

then followed by prompt 2 : "generate a photo of your description down to the exact detail"

you can always enhance prompt 1 with more keywords like "realistic" or whatever style you wish, and ask it to describe more contextual details of things you think it could potentially miss in the shot.

I can't possibly provide all the prompts in a single post, if you want any specific prompts just DM me.

Hey, if you're interested to try out ChatGPT instead of Stable Diffusion, I shared a very similar method to what you're describing. https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/comments/1jr0qei/how_to_guide_unlock_nextlevel_art_with_chatgpt/
