How to Use Midjourney to Create Amazing AI art: A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you looking for a platform to create amazing AI art? Look no further than Midjourney, an independent research lab that explores new mediums of thought and expands the imaginative powers of the human species. With Midjourney, users can create anything they can imagine, as long as they can express that imagination in words. In this guide, we’ll take you through the steps on how to use Midjourney to create some of the most exciting AI art possible.

How to use Midjourney

Step 1: Sign Up (click on Join Beta) on Midjourney’s Website and sign into Discord. Midjourney works through Discord and you can either sign in if you have a Discord account, or you can create a completely new Discord account.

Step 2: Join a server once you’ve joined the Midjourney Discord. To start, it’s best to select a “Newbie” server (newbies – 36, newbie – 6, etc.), as these are recommended for casual users and help users get to grips with the AI generation process.

Step 3: Select the chat box at the bottom and type “/imagine,” then click the Imagine command.

Step 4: Type in the Prompt Type in the prompt for the art you wish to create (the more detail, the better) and hit enter. After /imagine you can type whatever you want for Midjourney to create. You can get ideas for prompts from others in the newbies server. (You can try for example: /imagine sports car, on the dark road, moonlight, –aspect 1:1).

Step 5: Wait a few moments for the bot to work and keep an eye on the chat where it will be posted.

Step 6: Select Upscales and Variations. To produce variations or upscale an image, select the buttons below the images. V (and then the number of the photo) for variation and U for upscale. V1 will give you four variations of the top left photo. V2 will give you four variations of top right photo. U3 will give you the bottom left photo in higher resolution.

It’s that simple! If you can picture it and describe it, Midjourney can probably draw it. However, keep in mind that Midjourney is currently only in Beta, so don’t expect it to be perfect every single time.
