Exploring creativity with your uploaded images...


Five Innovative Approaches


Elevate Your Sketches: Transform your sketches into refined artworks with the Illustrate tool. This feature allows for subtle enhancements, ensuring the core essence of your art remains intact. 


A pro tip – utilize the negative prompt feature to prevent unwanted watermarks, which often appear in AI-generated art.



Doodles to Masterpieces: Watch your simple doodles become intricate artworks.


Pro-Tip 2: By setting minimal thresholds, the tool preserves your doodle's original color and structure, bringing a new level of detail and depth.



Strategic Composition: Capture perfect compositions effortlessly. For instance, if you're aiming for a specific placement, like a woman in red positioned to the side of the frame, small threshold settings can secure the exact positioning of elements in your images


Pro Tip 3: Even just a few squares can make a great difference in how the image will turn out.



Subject Transformation: Experiment with transforming subjects into something entirely new. For example, morph a personal photo into a fantastical version, like turning yourself into a robot. 


Pro Tip 4: Remember to start with single image generations to balance the prompt and image efficiently, saving credits and time.



Creative Style Fusion: Utilize the colors and styles from one photo to inspire a completely new image. This feature opens up limitless possibilities for artistic expression, allowing you to merge various aesthetics seamlessly.


Pro Tip 5: To maintain the original aesthetic of your image, refrain from introducing new styles or color palettes in your prompt. This ensures the integrity and consistency of the image's original design and theme.



Publishing anything Illustrate AI makes from using uploaded images to your Profile and the image library


Due to the possible trademark and copyright risk publishing an image that only varies slightly from original work brings, publishing to your profile and the AI library isn't an option. However, you can download anything Illustrate AI creates using your uploaded image as inspiration.
