Article Summary

Getting started

Type a description of the image you want to create in the prompt field.

Prompt tips

  • Length

    • Clio.art works best with simple, short phrases that describe what you want to see:
    • Avoid long complex sentences and lists of requests.
    • Concentrate on the main concepts you want to create.
    • Prompts can be really short and simple, but we don't recommend limiting yourself to a couple of words.
    • Use more descriptive prompt to add specific details to your image.
    • At the same time we do not recommend to do "quality prompt engineerling" like 32k, UHD, super-duper resolution. Clio.art models are crafted to deliver high quality and extremely low amount of artifacts by default.

  • Grammar

    • Clio.art does not understand grammar, sentence structure, or words like humans. Word choice also matters. More specific synonyms work better in many circumstances. Instead of big, try gigantic, enormous, or immense (for example). Remove words when it's possible. Fewer words mean each word has more influence or "strength".
    • Use commas to help organize your thoughts, but know Clio.art will not reliably interpret them.
    • Clio.art does not consider capitalization.
    • To increase strength of word or words add brackets () to them to make them looks this way (word:1.1) or (beautiful, impressive, word:1.1). We recommend keeping this multiplier below 2 to avoid artifacts on generations. 1.1 – 1.3 values work great in most cases.
    • To decrease strength of word or words add brackets () to them to make them looks this way (word:0.5) or (beautiful, impressive, word:0.5). Negative values will not work.

Negative prompt

  • Use negative prompt only if you want to exclude something from the image.
  • It is better to describe what you want instead of what you don't want. Because the more negative prompt you add the less creative the result will be.
