10 Tips for Getting Better AI-Generated Images
1 min read
Master AI image generation with these 10 expert tips. Learn how to craft prompts that produce stunning, professional-quality visuals.
1. Be Specific About Style
Vague prompts produce vague images. Instead of "a sunset", try "a golden sunset over the Pacific Ocean, impressionist oil painting style, warm orange and purple hues".
2. Reference Artists and Styles
Referencing a style (e.g., "in the style of Studio Ghibli" or "photorealistic, cinematic lighting") dramatically improves consistency and aesthetic quality.
3. Specify Composition and Framing
Use terms like "wide shot", "close-up portrait", "bird's eye view"
Specify aspect ratio (e.g., 16:9 for landscape, 9:16 for vertical)
Mention foreground and background elements separately
Lighting transforms an image. Words like "golden hour", "dramatic studio lighting", "soft diffused light", or "neon-lit" completely change the mood.
5. Use Negative Prompts
Tell the AI what to avoid — "no text", "no watermarks", "no blurry backgrounds" — to eliminate common AI image artifacts.
6–10. Advanced Techniques
Iterate: Generate multiple variations and refine the best one
Layer prompts: Start broad, then add specific details
Test resolution keywords: '8K', 'ultra-detailed', 'hyper-realistic'
Use color palettes: 'pastel', 'monochrome', 'earth tones'
Chain tools: Remove backgrounds, then upscale for professional results
QWhy do my AI images look low quality?
Add quality keywords to your prompt: 'high resolution', '8K', 'ultra-detailed', 'professional quality'. Also ensure you're using appropriate dimensions for your use case.
QHow many images should I generate per prompt?
Generate 4–8 variations for each prompt. AI image generation has inherent randomness, so more attempts increase your chances of getting the perfect result.
QCan I use AI images commercially?
Most AI image generators allow commercial use of generated images, but check the specific terms of your tool. Kreatvo-generated images can be used for commercial projects.
QHow do I get consistent characters across multiple images?
For character consistency, include very detailed descriptions of physical attributes in every prompt. Some models also support image-to-image features for maintaining consistency.
QWhat's the best prompt length?
Medium prompts (50–150 words) typically perform best. Too short and the AI has too much creative freedom; too long and important details get lost or contradicted.
