The Image Specialist

Welcome to The Image Specialist

Getting good results from an AI image generator is mostly about knowing how to describe what you want. Most people type one sentence and wonder why the output looks nothing like they imagined. The prompt is everything.

This tool builds the prompt for you. Work through the eight steps, hit Generate, and you will get a fully structured prompt ready to paste into Midjourney, Firefly or Leonardo.

To get the best out of it

Be as specific as possible in the Subject field. "A man at a desk" gives average results. "A 1950s American businessman at a mahogany desk surrounded by paperwork" gives something interesting. The more detail you put in, the better the output.

Before you start
What Separates a Good Image Prompt from a Bad One

The tool builds the technical structure for you. But the quality of your subject description is what separates an interesting image from a forgettable one.

Weak prompt
"A house"
No style, no era, no atmosphere, no setting. The AI will make something generic because you have not told it anything specific.
Strong prompt
"A grand Victorian terraced townhouse on a foggy London street at dusk, amber light in the windows, wet cobblestones reflecting the glow"
Era, location, time of day, weather, lighting detail. The AI has everything it needs to produce something specific and atmospheric.
Weak prompt
"A businessman"
Who? Where? When? What era? What are they doing? Every unanswered question becomes a random choice the AI makes for you.
Strong prompt
"A 1950s American insurance broker in a grey flannel suit, sitting at a cluttered wooden desk, looking out a rain-streaked window onto a city street below"
Decade, nationality, profession, clothing, setting, action, viewpoint, weather. Every detail removes a random choice.
Common mistakes to avoid
Asking for text in the image. AI image generators handle text very badly. Never include words, signs or labels in your description.
Combining two very different styles. "Photorealistic anime oil painting" confuses the model. Pick one visual direction and commit to it.
Describing what you do NOT want. AI generators respond to positive descriptions. Tell them what you want, not what to avoid.
Using abstract emotions without visual anchors. "Happy" means nothing. "Laughing, head tilted back, bright sunlight" gives the AI something to work with.
The golden rule

Every unanswered question in your subject description is a random choice the AI makes for you. The more specific you are, the less random the output.

What to do next
01

Copy Your Prompt

Hit Copy to Clipboard above. The whole thing, parameters and all, in one click.

02

Paste Into Your Generator

Midjourney: type /imagine then paste. Firefly or Leonardo: paste straight into the prompt field.

03

Tweak & Iterate

Not quite right? Change one thing at a time. Mood and lighting usually make the biggest difference.

Pro tip: Stylize under 300 stays close to your description. Over 700 lets the AI do its own thing. Start at 750.
