🖼️ Text-to-Image Generation

🔄 Image-to-Image Transformation
Upload any existing image and let the AI reimagine it:

- Adjust composition, camera angles, and focus
- Combine elements from multiple reference images
⚡ Two AI Models
| Model | Best For | Credits |

| Nano Banana Pro | Higher quality, complex prompts, up to 4K | 18–24 credits per image |
How to Create Better Images
Based on best practices from the AI image generation community:
1. Start with a Simple Formula
Try this structure: [Action] + [Subject] + [Scene] + [Style]
For example: "Create an image of a cat napping in a sunbeam on a windowsill, watercolor style"
2. Be Specific with Details
The more details you provide, the better the result. Instead of:
❌ "A woman in a red dress"
Try:
✅ "A young woman in a flowing red dress running through a park with cherry blossom trees, soft afternoon light, shallow depth of field, cinematic photography"
3. Consider Composition and Style
Think about:
- Composition — How elements are arranged (close-up, wide shot, bird's-eye view)
- Style — The visual aesthetic (photorealistic, oil painting, anime, minimalist)
- Lighting — The mood and atmosphere (golden hour, dramatic shadows, neon glow)
- Aspect Ratio — The shape of your image (square for social, wide for banners, tall for stories)
4. Iterate and Refine
Don't settle for the first result. Adjust your prompts, try different styles, and experiment with variations until you get exactly what you envision.
