Your First Image

This walkthrough makes one image from a text prompt. You need a signed-in account and enough available credit to generate. Check pricing before you start; the price depends on the model and settings.

1. Open the image generator

Go to Generate Image. The How to use control starts an in-page tour whenever you want to find a control. On a phone, the editor and Results are separate tabs.

2. Choose a model

Open Model and choose a Base Model and Checkpoint. A base model is the generation family; a checkpoint is a particular trained version in that family. Each family offers different references, LoRAs, and sampling controls. For your first image, keep the default settings after making your model choice.

For a general scene, try a model that accepts ordinary descriptive sentences, such as Flux1 Dev or SDXL. For anime art, see the Anima and Pony Diffusion guides.

3. Write one clear prompt

Open Prompt and describe the subject, action, setting, composition, light, and style. For example:

A red fox sitting beside a mountain stream, pine forest behind it, medium shot, soft morning light, detailed storybook illustration

Keep one main subject for the first attempt. You can add a Negative Prompt only if your selected model exposes that control. The Basic Prompting Guide has more examples.

4. Review settings and generate

In Settings, choose your image size and number of images. Private Mode keeps the result visible only to you; Hide Prompt hides prompt text when sharing a result. Check these before submitting if privacy matters. Leave Sampler at its defaults for now.

Select Generate. Creating images uses your available balance. New jobs and finished images appear in Results; on mobile, open the Results tab. Select a finished image to see the full result and its available actions.

5. Improve one thing at a time

  • If the subject is wrong, put it at the beginning of the prompt and remove competing subjects.
  • If the framing is wrong, add close-up, full body, or wide shot.
  • If you want a comparable variation, turn on Use Fixed Seed and change one prompt detail. A seed helps comparison but does not guarantee identical output after you change other settings or models.
  • If you want a new composition, change the seed.

Open the result and select Recreate to load supported settings back into the generator. Check them before generating again. See Find, Save, and Reuse Your Work for downloading, privacy, and history.

Next steps

Try Magic Edit to change an existing image, or Video Generation to animate one. Add a compatible LoRA only after you have a basic prompt that works.

Basic Prompting Guide

A prompt tells the image model what to generate. Dopamine Girl runs image workflows on ComfyUI, where the positive prompt describes what you want and the negative prompt describes what you want the model to avoid.

ComfyUI passes those prompts to the selected model. The model still determines which words, tags, and settings work best, so start with this general method and then use the guide for your model when you need more control:

Start With a Clear Structure

Build the positive prompt in this order:

[subject] + [action or pose] + [environment] + [composition] + [lighting] + [style or medium]

Example:

A red fox sitting beside a mountain stream, pine forest in the background, medium shot, soft morning light, detailed storybook illustration

Put the main subject first. Add details that can be seen in the image, and remove words that do not change the intended result.

Build the Prompt One Layer at a Time

Start with the subject:

A red fox

Add an action and environment:

A red fox sitting beside a mountain stream, pine forest in the background

Add composition and lighting:

A red fox sitting beside a mountain stream, pine forest in the background, medium shot, soft morning light

Finish with a visual medium or style:

A red fox sitting beside a mountain stream, pine forest in the background, medium shot, soft morning light, detailed storybook illustration

This approach makes problems easier to diagnose. If the final image drifts away from your idea, remove the newest phrase or replace it with a more concrete description.

Describe Visible Details

Use specific visual language:

VagueMore controllable
beautiful womanwoman with a short black bob, green jacket, calm expression
nice lightingsoft window light from the left, warm rim light
cool backgroundrainy neon street with blurred signs and wet pavement
professional photostudio product photo, centered composition, softbox reflections

Useful detail groups include:

  • Subject traits: clothing, colors, materials, age range, hair, and expression.
  • Action: standing, running, holding an object, or looking in a direction.
  • Framing: close-up, portrait, full body, wide shot, overhead view, or centered composition.
  • Lighting: golden hour, overcast daylight, softbox, hard side light, or neon rim light.
  • Medium: photograph, watercolor, anime illustration, 3D render, or cinematic still.

Avoid stacking contradictory instructions such as photorealistic watercolor anime 3D render unless a mixed style is intentional.

Use Negative Prompts for Exclusions

The negative prompt should identify unwanted content or defects. Start short:

blurry, low quality, text, watermark, distorted anatomy, extra limbs

Add a term only when you see a recurring problem. A large generic negative prompt can suppress details you wanted and make results less distinctive.

Write the desired alternative in the positive prompt whenever possible. For example, if you do not want a busy background, add clean plain background to the positive prompt instead of relying only on cluttered background in the negative prompt.

Some newer model families use negative prompts differently or may ignore them. If changing the negative prompt has no effect, check the model-specific guide rather than adding more terms.

Emphasize Important Terms

In ComfyUI workflows that use CLIP prompt weighting, this syntax increases or decreases emphasis:

(golden hour:1.2)
(background details:0.8)
  • Values above 1.0 increase emphasis.
  • Values below 1.0 decrease emphasis.
  • 1.0 is the normal weight.

Use small adjustments such as 1.1 or 1.2. Very high weights can create harsh colors, artifacts, or an image that ignores the rest of the prompt. Weighting behavior can differ when a workflow uses another text encoder, so treat it as an optional correction rather than the foundation of the prompt.

Generate Variations With Prompt Choices

Dopamine Girl supports dynamic prompt choices. Put alternatives inside braces and separate them with |:

{option one|option two|option three}

Before an image is generated, one alternative is selected from each brace group. This lets one prompt produce different combinations of subjects, outfits, environments, lighting, poses, or styles.

a {ginger|blonde|brunette|black-haired} beautiful girl, {wearing a flowing summer dress|wearing an elegant evening gown|wearing a cozy oversized sweater|wearing a futuristic cyberpunk outfit}, {standing in a flower garden|walking through a neon city street|sitting by a quiet lakeside|posing in a sunlit bedroom}, {soft natural lighting|cinematic golden hour lighting|dreamy pastel lighting|moody dramatic lighting}, highly detailed, beautiful face, expressive eyes, realistic, 8k

This example has four hair choices, four outfit choices, four scene choices, and four lighting choices, allowing up to 256 combinations.

Keep each group focused on one type of detail:

Portrait of a {smiling|serious|thoughtful} astronaut, {close-up|medium shot}, {inside a spacecraft|standing on a lunar surface}, {cinematic rim light|soft window light}

Use prompt choices when you want variety across generations. Use a normal fixed phrase when a detail must stay consistent. Start with a small number of alternatives so you can identify which combinations work well before expanding the prompt.

Iterate Without Losing a Good Result

Use a controlled loop:

  1. Generate with a simple positive prompt and a short negative prompt.
  2. Keep the same seed while changing one phrase.
  3. Compare the result and keep the change only if it helps.
  4. Change the seed after the prompt is working to explore new compositions.

The seed initializes the generation noise. Reusing it helps you compare prompt changes against a similar starting composition; changing it produces a new variation.

Do not change the prompt, seed, sampler, steps, and guidance at the same time. You will not know which change improved or damaged the image.

Understand the Main Generation Controls

Prompt quality matters, but sampling controls also affect the result:

ControlWhat it changesPractical use
SeedInitial random noiseLock it while testing a prompt; change it for variations.
StepsNumber of denoising iterationsMore steps take longer and do not always improve a finished image.
CFG or guidanceStrength of prompt adherenceIncrease carefully; excessive guidance can reduce image quality.
Sampler and schedulerHow noise is removedStart with the workflow default or use the sampler and scheduler guide.
DenoiseHow strongly an input image is changed1.0 is full denoising; lower values preserve more of an input image in image-to-image workflows.

Model defaults matter. A CFG value that works for one checkpoint may be wrong for another, so do not apply one universal setting to every workflow.

Starter Prompts

Portrait

Portrait of a woman with a short black bob wearing a dark green jacket, looking at the camera, rainy city street at night, 85mm lens, shallow depth of field, soft neon rim light, cinematic photography

Product Image

White ceramic perfume bottle on black stone, centered close-up product photo, clean background, softbox reflections, cool blue edge light, luxury advertising style

Fantasy Illustration

A small airship approaching a city built into red cliffs, wide establishing shot, clouds below the city, late afternoon sunlight, detailed fantasy concept art

Anime Character

1girl, solo, short silver hair, blue eyes, red winter coat, standing at a quiet train platform, falling snow, looking at viewer, soft evening light, detailed anime illustration

For anime checkpoints trained on tags, use the exact quality, source, and safety tags recommended in the relevant model guide.

Fix Common Problems

The model ignores the main subject

  • Move the subject to the beginning.
  • Remove secondary characters and unnecessary objects.
  • Replace vague adjectives with visible traits.
  • Reduce competing styles and weighted terms.

The composition is wrong

  • Add one framing instruction such as close-up, full body, or wide shot.
  • State where the subject is placed: centered, on the left, or in the foreground.
  • Keep the seed fixed while testing composition changes.

The image looks overprocessed

  • Remove repeated quality terms.
  • Lower strong prompt weights.
  • Reduce CFG or guidance if the selected model supports that control.
  • Use a clear lighting setup instead of stacking masterpiece, 8k, and ultra detailed.

Important details keep changing

  • Put identity details near the subject.
  • Use consistent wording for colors, clothing, and accessories.
  • Simplify the scene before adding more prompt terms.
  • Use a suitable LoRA or reference-image workflow when text alone is not enough.

Final Checklist

  • Name the main subject first.
  • Describe action, environment, composition, lighting, and style with visible terms.
  • Keep the negative prompt focused on problems you actually see.
  • Use prompt weights sparingly and only when the workflow supports them.
  • Use {choice one|choice two} groups when you want automatic prompt variations.
  • Keep the seed fixed and change one variable at a time.
  • Follow the selected model's prompting guide for model-specific syntax.

Edit an Image with Magic Edit

Magic Edit changes an existing image from written instructions. Use it for requests such as changing the background, adding an object, or trying a new look while keeping a subject. If you only need a new image from text, start with Your First Image.

Follow the editing flow

  1. Open Magic Edit and choose a Base Model and Checkpoint in Model. The available models are Qwen Image, Qwen Image 2.1, and Flux2 Klein.
  2. In Input Images, upload or select the image you want to edit. You can crop it before submitting. The first image determines the output ratio and affects the price, so check its crop and order.
  3. Write an Edit Prompt that says what to change and what to keep.
  4. Review Settings, especially Private Mode and Hide Prompt, then select Edit Image.
  5. Follow the job in Results. On mobile, open the Results tab. Open the finished image to download it or use Recreate for another attempt.

Start with one image and a specific request:

Change the overcast sky to a warm sunset. Keep the red fox, its pose, the stream, and the camera angle unchanged. Match the new light on the water and fur.

If too much changes, shorten the request and name the details that must stay. If the edit is too subtle, describe the intended new appearance more concretely. Use Use Fixed Seed when comparing two versions of the prompt.

Edit with multiple images

The supported number of inputs depends on the model: Qwen Image accepts up to three selections, Qwen Image 2.1 up to five, and Flux2 Klein up to three. Drag the images to set their order. Their order matters to the prompt.

  • Qwen Image: the selected references are combined left to right into one guide image. Refer to their visible positions, such as “the person on the left” and “the jacket on the right.”
  • Qwen Image 2.1: refer to distinct inputs with <image1> through <image5> as shown by the editor.
  • Flux2 Klein: describe the role of each reference in order, such as “use Reference 1 for the subject and Reference 2 for the clothing.”

Example with two references:

Keep the subject and pose from Reference 1. Use the blue jacket from Reference 2, matching its fabric and collar. Keep the original background and lighting.

The available model can change how closely details are preserved. Review the output instead of assuming that an instruction will be followed exactly.

Add a LoRA only when needed

Use Add LoRA to select a LoRA compatible with the chosen model. LoRAs can influence a style or concept; their weights can be adjusted or an entry disabled. If an edit becomes distorted or ignores the original image, retry without the LoRA or lower its weight. The editor supports up to five selected LoRAs.

For a head swap using the BFS LoRA, follow the separate Face Swap Guide. For normal face replacement, the Face Swap tool is a simpler starting point.

What affects cost?

The first reference sets the output width and height by default. Qwen Image 2.1 rounds each side to the nearest 32 pixels. Enable Scale to 2K in Settings to target a size close to the model's 2K image-generation sizes while keeping the first image's ratio. If you cropped it, the cropped ratio is used. The first image is scaled for the edit without padding or trimming; other references are not scaled to 2K. Images with extreme aspect ratios may have fewer pixels than the usual 2K output because the longer side is capped. An image already at a supported 2K size stays at that size. The output size may increase or decrease, so the credit cost may change. Flux2 Klein and Qwen Image 2.1 can also add a charge for each reference. See the current pricing page before submitting.

Find, Save, and Reuse Your Work

After submitting a job, follow it in the tool's Results panel. On mobile, switch to the Results tab. To find work later, open History.

Open and download a result

Select a completed item to open its detail view. The detail view shows the image or video and the actions available for that type of result. Use Download to save a copy. Save important work to your own device; a browser tab or an open editor is not a backup.

Continue from an earlier result

  • Recreate loads supported generation settings into the relevant tool so you can make a variation. Review the model, prompt, inputs, LoRAs, and price before submitting again. A LoRA or reference that is no longer accessible may need to be selected again.
  • Magic Edit opens an image in the editing tool when that action is available.
  • Animate opens a suitable image as a starting point for video when available.
  • As Reference adds an image as a reference for a new generation when available.

Changing the model or seed can give a very different result even when you reuse the prompt. If you are comparing variations, keep the other settings steady.

Control sharing

During creation, Private Mode keeps a generation visible only to your account. Hide Prompt controls whether your prompt text appears when sharing; it does not make the artwork private. You can also open your own result and use Make Private or Make Public, and Hide Prompt or Show Prompt, when those actions are available.

Check both settings before sharing a link. Only upload source material you are allowed to use, and review the Safety Policy.

Use Collections to organize related results. If a result is missing from your current view, check History and its search filters before trying to recreate it from scratch.

Video Generation Guide

Use Generate Video to animate a still image. Choose a model first: available lengths, frame inputs, audio, and LoRAs depend on that model. The pricing page lists the current per-second rates.

Make a first clip

  1. Choose a video model. For a first attempt, keep its default settings.
  2. Add a clear First Frame image. Start with one subject and enough room in the frame for the motion you want.
  3. Choose the clip duration and write one motion instruction. Describe what moves, how fast it moves, and whether the camera moves.
  4. Review the available settings and price, then generate. Follow the job in Results; on mobile, open the Results tab.

Copy-ready example:

A red fox lifts its head and looks toward the stream. Its ears turn slightly as a breeze moves the grass. The camera stays still in a medium shot. Soft morning light remains consistent.

The first frame already supplies much of the subject, composition, and style. Spend the prompt on changes over time. A short clip usually works best with one main action rather than several scene changes.

Write motion and camera instructions

Use this simple structure:

[subject action] + [background motion] + [camera movement or static camera] + [end state]

For example, the cyclist rides past the camera; her coat moves in the wind; the camera pans slowly right; she exits the frame gives a clear sequence. Avoid conflicting directions such as “locked camera” and “fast orbit” in the same shot.

If a clip looks unstable, reduce the amount of action and camera travel. If it looks static, use a more visible action: turns toward the window is easier to judge than feels hopeful.

Choose the right model guide

  • Wan 2.2: begin with a first frame and a concise motion prompt. Try another seed or simpler action if the result drifts. The video tool offers different output resolutions; check their prices before submitting.
  • MiniMax H3: supports first-frame and optional last-frame image-to-video with synchronized audio. Use the MiniMax H3 Prompting Guide for its structured sound and shot instructions.
  • LTX 2.3: add a required first frame and, optionally, a last frame to guide the ending. This works with LTX 2.3 Base and DragonLeap; select either checkpoint and its available settings in the video tool.

Model-specific controls are shown in the generator. A setting available for one model may be absent for another.

Use an existing image

Open a finished image and select Animate when available. This loads it into the video workflow. Review the model, frame, prompt, length, and price before submitting; the image does not dictate the motion on its own.

If you own the input image, you can also return to the image generator or Magic Edit to prepare a clearer first frame before animating it.

MiniMax H3 Prompting Guide

MiniMax H3 generates video and synchronized stereo audio together. In Dopamine Girl, H3 currently works as image-to-video: upload a first frame, optionally add a last frame, choose a 3–5 second duration, and describe everything that should happen between those anchors.

This guide adapts the official MiniMax H3 model card, prompt-writing skill, and base prompt guide to the controls available in Dopamine Girl.

Add LoRAs

Use Add LoRA in the H3 video tool to select up to five MiniMax H3 I2V LoRAs from your library, favorites, or the community. Import compatible LoRAs through the existing Upload LoRA page by choosing that model family. WAN and LTX LoRAs are not compatible with H3.

Adjust each LoRA's weight with the existing controls, and disable any entry you do not want applied. Selected LoRAs and weights survive reloads and appear in the generated video's details. Recreate restores entries you still have permission to use. Switching between H3 and another video model clears the selection.

Use H3's Three-Part Prompt

H3 prompts work best when they keep these fields in this exact order:

integrated_multimodal_description:
[Describe the visible action, camera, timing, dialogue, and matching sound effects.]

overall_soundscape:
[Describe the continuous environmental sound and spatial audio.]

non_diegetic_music:
[Describe background score that does not come from the scene, or write N/A.]

The first field is the main timeline. It should connect motion, camera direction, and diegetic sound—the sound produced inside the scene—rather than treating picture and audio as unrelated lists.

The other two fields have narrower jobs:

  • overall_soundscape describes the continuous ambient bed, such as rain, traffic, room tone, wind, or crowd noise. One to four sentences is normally enough.
  • non_diegetic_music describes a background score heard by the audience but not produced inside the scene. Keep it to one to three sentences, or use N/A when you do not want music.

First Frame Only

With only a first frame, treat the uploaded image as the composition at 0.00 seconds. Start your prompt with this alignment instruction:

For the target video, at 0.00 seconds into the target video, <Picture 1> (from [Shot 1]) is fully referenced.

Then describe motion that grows naturally out of that frame. The image already establishes the subject, clothing, environment, color palette, and initial camera angle, so spend most of the prompt on what changes:

  • the subject's action and expression;
  • movement in hair, fabric, particles, weather, or background objects;
  • camera direction, speed, and travel distance;
  • sound effects timed to visible events;
  • the state in which the shot should finish.

Example: first frame only

For the target video, at 0.00 seconds into the target video, <Picture 1> (from [Shot 1]) is fully referenced.

integrated_multimodal_description:
[Shot 1] The woman looks up from the letter and takes one measured step toward the rain-streaked window. The camera performs a very slow, short dolly-in while keeping her face centered. Her sleeve brushes the wooden desk with a soft rustle; distant thunder follows as blue light briefly brightens the room. She ends still, watching the rain beyond the glass.

overall_soundscape:
Steady rain taps against the window in a quiet interior, with low distant city traffic and a faint room echo.

non_diegetic_music:
Sparse, restrained piano notes enter softly and remain beneath the rain.

First and Last Frame

After uploading a first frame, Dopamine Girl lets you add a last frame. Use both images as endpoints and explain the continuous path between them. For a five-second clip, begin with:

How the reference pictures align with the target video — Picture 1 (from Shot 1) aligns with the 0.00-second mark of the target video; Picture 2 (from Shot 1) aligns with the 5.00-second mark of the target video.

Replace 5.00 with the duration you selected. Keep both references in the same shot unless a cut is genuinely necessary. Describe the intermediate movement explicitly: what initiates the change, how the subject and camera travel, and how they settle into the last frame. This helps avoid a clip that holds the first image and then abruptly jumps to the second.

Example: first and last frame

How the reference pictures align with the target video — Picture 1 (from Shot 1) aligns with the 0.00-second mark of the target video; Picture 2 (from Shot 1) aligns with the 5.00-second mark of the target video.

integrated_multimodal_description:
[Shot 1] Starting from Picture 1, the skateboarder pushes off and glides down the wet alley. The camera tracks backward at the same moderate speed, then arcs gently to the right as she turns. Reflections stretch beneath the board; each wheel clicks lightly over pavement seams. During the final second she slows, rotates her shoulders, and settles precisely into the stance and framing of Picture 2.

overall_soundscape:
Close rolling wheels and light splashes sit over a broad nighttime bed of rain, ventilation fans, and distant traffic.

non_diegetic_music:
A minimal electronic pulse rises subtly through the shot without overpowering the wheel sounds.

Direct Motion as a Short Timeline

A 3–5 second clip has little room for setup. One coherent shot with one main action is usually stronger than several scene changes.

Use [Shot 1] without a timestamp. If you intentionally add a cut, give each later shot an increasing timestamp:

[Shot 1] A cyclist accelerates toward the intersection...
[Shot 2] [2.80s] Cut to a close side profile as she passes the camera...

Keep every described event inside the selected duration. If a five-second prompt asks a character to wake up, cross a room, leave a building, drive away, and reach another city, the model has no clear motion to prioritize.

Specify camera movement precisely

Combine three details:

  1. Type — pan, tilt, dolly, orbit, handheld track, crane, or locked-off shot.
  2. Amplitude — slight, short, half-circle, close follow, or wide sweep.
  3. Speed — very slow, steady, brisk, or rapidly accelerating.

For example, a slow, short dolly-in from a medium shot to a close-up is more actionable than cinematic camera movement.

Direct Dialogue, Sound, and Music

H3 can generate speech and scene audio together with the picture. Assign stable speaker IDs when more than one person speaks, and place dialogue at the point where it occurs:

The shopkeeper (S1) leans closer and whispers <d>[English] The door was already open.</d>
The customer (S2) turns toward the entrance without answering.

Preserve the exact wording and language you want spoken. Do not repeat dialogue in overall_soundscape; use that field for ambience. Put visible signs, captions, or title text in double quotes so they are clearly distinguished from speech.

Keep sound sources spatially consistent. A nearby object should sound close and distinct, while traffic outside a closed room should be muffled and distant. Time one-off sounds alongside the action that causes them: a cup lands and clicks, a door closes and thuds, or thunder follows a flash.

Copy-Ready Templates

First frame template

For the target video, at 0.00 seconds into the target video, <Picture 1> (from [Shot 1]) is fully referenced.

integrated_multimodal_description:
[Shot 1] Starting from Picture 1, [subject] [main action]. The camera [type, amplitude, and speed]. [Environment or secondary motion]. [Sound timed to a visible event]. The shot ends with [clear final state].

overall_soundscape:
[Continuous ambience, spatial position, and intensity.]

non_diegetic_music:
[Background score and mood, or N/A.]

First and last frame template

How the reference pictures align with the target video — Picture 1 (from Shot 1) aligns with the 0.00-second mark of the target video; Picture 2 (from Shot 1) aligns with the [DURATION]-second mark of the target video.

integrated_multimodal_description:
[Shot 1] Starting from Picture 1, [subject and camera begin moving]. [Describe the continuous intermediate action and synchronized sounds]. During the final second, [describe how motion slows or resolves] and settles precisely into Picture 2.

overall_soundscape:
[Continuous ambience, spatial position, and intensity.]

non_diegetic_music:
[Background score and mood, or N/A.]

Final Checklist

  • Keep the three field names in the required order.
  • Match all timing to the selected 3–5 second duration.
  • Describe motion away from the first frame, not just what the image contains.
  • With a last frame, explain the physical transition and final settling motion.
  • Prefer one main action and one shot for a short clip.
  • Define camera type, amplitude, and speed instead of relying on abstract words such as “cinematic.”
  • Put synchronized effects beside the action that creates them.
  • Keep ambience out of the music field and music out of the soundscape field.
  • Use stable speaker labels and preserve dialogue exactly.
  • Use concrete visible and audible details instead of broad mood words alone.

MiniMax Music 3 Prompting Guide

MiniMax Music 3 generates complete songs from two separate text inputs: Style to describe the music and Lyrics that define the words and song sections. It is designed to maintain themes, rhythm, vocal identity, and an evolving arrangement across a long track.

The model itself can generate songs up to five minutes, while Dopamine Girl currently offers maximum-duration choices of 1, 2, or 3 minutes and returns the finished song as an MP3. The selected duration is an upper bound: the model can end naturally before it when the song structure or lyrics are complete.

Keep Style and Lyrics Separate

The two fields have different jobs:

FieldPut this hereDo not put this here
StyleGenre, tempo, mood, vocals, instruments, arrangement changes, and production styleThe words that should be sung
LyricsSection tags and the exact words to singA general list of genres, instruments, or mix instructions

Duplicating lyrics inside Style wastes space and can make the musical direction less clear. Describe how the song should sound in Style and what the singer should sing in Lyrics.

Structure Lyrics With Section Tags

Section tags guide the song's large-scale structure. Useful tags include:

[Intro]
[Verse]
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Post-Chorus]
[Bridge]
[Instrumental]
[Solo]
[Outro]

Put every tag on its own line. Do not write lyrics on the same line as a tag—the words after a leading tag can be dropped by the model's input format.

Use this:

[Verse]
Streetlights dissolve into the rain
Your voice is calling through the train

[Chorus]
We keep running into midnight
Holding sparks against the skyline

Not this:

[Verse] Streetlights dissolve into the rain

Tags guide rather than guarantee the final arrangement. Give each selected duration enough material: a few short lines may produce a short song even when the maximum duration is three minutes.

Write a Structured Style

A concise natural-language Style description works for quick experiments. For stronger control, organize it into three sections in this order:

  1. Global Metadata
  2. Vocal Details
  3. Arrangement

The official prompting guide recommends roughly 250–450 words for a detailed structured Style description. Treat that as a useful target, not a requirement. Specific, consistent instructions matter more than length.

1. Global Metadata

Describe the identity and emotional path of the whole song:

  • genre and subgenre;
  • tempo or energy level;
  • key and scale only when they genuinely matter;
  • emotional progression from opening to climax and resolution;
  • a scene or listening context that anchors the mood;
  • production character, such as intimate and natural or wide and polished.

Avoid using only broad modifiers such as epic, dark, or emotional. Pair them with an actual genre, instruments, and an energy arc.

2. Vocal Details

State the vocal identity explicitly:

  • singer gender and vocal range or timbre;
  • delivery in each section, such as restrained verses and a belted chorus;
  • backing vocals, harmonies, doubles, or call-and-response;
  • restrained vocal effects such as plate reverb or delay throws.

If the song should be instrumental, say so explicitly and name the instrument that carries the lead melody.

3. Arrangement

Write the arrangement as a timeline, not an equipment list:

  • identify the primary instrument or motif that anchors the song;
  • explain when secondary instruments enter, leave, or change;
  • describe how drums, bass, and groove grow or strip back by section;
  • reserve risers, sweeps, fills, reverbs, and other embellishments for specific transitions.

For example, instead of synth, bass, drums, guitar, write: A pulsing analog synth opens alone; bass and a restrained electronic kick enter in the verse; wide guitars and stacked drums lift the chorus; the bridge strips back to voice and pad before the full arrangement returns.

Copy-Ready Style Template

Global Metadata
Genre and subgenre: [genre]. Tempo: [exact BPM, range, or qualitative pace].
The song begins [opening emotion], builds toward [climax], and resolves [ending emotion].

[Singer identity, gender, range, and timbre]. The verses are delivered [style], while the chorus becomes [style].
[Backing vocal or harmony plan]. Use [specific vocal effects] only in [sections or transitions].

Arrangement
[Primary instrument or motif] anchors the song. [Secondary instruments] enter during [section].
The groove begins [foundation], grows [section-by-section development], strips back during [section],
and returns [final development]. Use [specific textures or effects] at [specific transitions].

Complete Example

Style

Global Metadata
Dreamy synth-pop with a subtle new-wave influence at a steady mid-tempo pace. The song opens with quiet anticipation,
gains confidence through the verses, and releases into a bright, expansive chorus. The bridge becomes briefly lonely
before the final chorus resolves with warmth and momentum. It should feel like driving through a rain-lit city after
midnight. Use a polished but breathable mix with warm low frequencies, crisp percussion, and a wide chorus.

Vocal Details
A clear female mezzo-soprano with an intimate, slightly breathy tone. Keep the verses close-miked and restrained, then
open into a confident sustained delivery in each chorus. Add soft doubled vocals in the pre-chorus and wide stacked
harmonies on the last two lines of the chorus. Use short plate reverb throughout and one subtle delay throw at the end
of each chorus.

Arrangement
A pulsing analog synth arpeggio establishes the central motif in the intro and continues quietly beneath the verses.
A rounded synth bass and tight electronic kick enter with the first verse. Muted guitar accents and rising pads build
the pre-chorus. The chorus adds wider drums, brighter synth chords, and layered backing vocals. Strip the bridge down
to the lead vocal, bass pulse, and distant pad, then rebuild with a snare fill into a final chorus featuring an added
counter-melody. End by removing the drums and letting the original arpeggio fade into rain-like ambience.

Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse]
Streetlights shimmer on the glass
Every color moves too fast
I hear your echo down the line
Calling me through borrowed time

[Pre-Chorus]
The city falls away below
There is only where we go

[Chorus]
We keep running into midnight
Holding sparks against the skyline
If the morning finds us changing
We will leave the dark behind

[Verse]
Silver signals cross the rain
Drawing maps across the train
Every turn becomes a door
Leading somewhere worth the fall

[Bridge]
When the noise is gone
Will the rhythm carry on?

[Chorus]
We keep running into midnight
Holding sparks against the skyline
If the morning finds us changing
We will leave the dark behind

[Outro]
Leave the dark behind

Instrumental Tracks

Dopamine Girl currently requires the Lyrics field even when you want an instrumental. Use a non-empty tag-only structure and make the instrumental direction explicit in Style:

[Intro]
[Instrumental]
[Solo]
[Outro]

In Vocal Details, write something like: Instrumental track with no singer. A lyrical tenor saxophone carries the lead melody. Then describe how that lead instrument changes through the sections.

Duration and Seed

  • Max duration: Choose 1, 2, or 3 minutes. Dopamine Girl reserves up to $0.20 per selected minute, then charges $0.20 per minute of finished audio, prorated by measured seconds. The song may end before the selected maximum.
  • Lyrics length: Longer tracks need enough sections and lyrics to sustain them. Add another verse, chorus, bridge, or instrumental passage when a song ends too early.
  • Fixed seed: Reuse a seed while revising one part of a prompt so comparisons are easier. A fixed seed improves repeatability but does not guarantee identical audio after other inputs change.

Fix Common Prompting Problems

Lyrics disappear after a tag

Move the tag onto its own line. [Verse] First lyric line can lose the lyric text; place the lyric on the next line.

The song becomes instrumental unexpectedly

State the singer's gender, timbre, and delivery explicitly in Vocal Details, and provide enough singable lyrics for the selected duration.

The result ignores part of the style

Remove contradictions. Preserve required genre, tempo, vocal, instrument, and exclusion instructions across the whole Style. When instructions conflict, explicit requirements should remain the clearest statements.

The arrangement feels static

Describe entrances, exits, density changes, and the energy of each section. Tell the model what changes in the chorus and bridge instead of listing instruments once.

The song is shorter than requested

The duration is an upper bound. Expand the Lyrics with complete sections and describe a longer arrangement arc rather than repeating vague mood words.

The music sounds forced or overly literal

Remove exact BPM, key, or production details that are not essential. Precise values are useful when intentional, but invented precision can reduce the model's freedom to make a musical result.

Pre-Generation Checklist

  • Style and Lyrics contain different information.
  • Every lyric section tag is on its own line.
  • Lyrics contain enough sections for the selected duration.
  • Global Metadata, Vocal Details, and Arrangement do not contradict one another.
  • Vocal identity is explicit, or the track is explicitly instrumental with a named lead instrument.
  • The arrangement describes a timeline of entrances, exits, and intensity changes.
  • BPM and key are included only when they are important.
  • Required instruments and exclusions remain consistent from beginning to end.

Yue2 Prompting Guide

Yue2 creates a song from a description of its sound and a separate set of lyrics. In Dopamine Girl, use Style to describe the sound and Lyrics for the song's sections and words to sing.

Open the Music tool, where Yue2 and a five-minute maximum are selected by default. Fill in both fields, and choose a maximum duration of 1–6 minutes if you want a different limit. The result can end earlier.

Write the Style as a Sound Description

Start with the details you care about most. A useful Style description names the genre, mood, main instruments, pace, and vocal character. Add the language when it matters, and keep it consistent with the language of the lyrics.

For example:

Japanese city pop with a relaxed 100 BPM groove, bright electric piano, melodic bass, clean rhythm guitar, and soft
drums. Warm female lead vocal with clear diction. The verses feel intimate; the chorus opens into a wider, hopeful sound.

Use Style for musical direction. Put the words you want sung in Lyrics, not in Style. A few clear, compatible details usually work better than a long list of conflicting genres or moods.

Give Lyrics a Clear Structure

Put each section label on its own line. Leave a blank line between sections, and keep the words under each label short enough to sing naturally. Common labels include [Verse], [Pre-Chorus], [Chorus], [Bridge], [Interlude], and [Outro].

[Verse]
Paper lanterns light the rain
Every street remembers your name

[Chorus]
Meet me where the city glows
We can follow where the night goes

[Verse]
Quiet footsteps mark the time
Your distant voice is close to mine

[Chorus]
Meet me where the city glows
We can follow where the night goes

[Outro]
Where the night goes

Write a repeated chorus out again rather than using “repeat chorus” shorthand. Keep production notes such as “add drums” in Style; use an empty section label such as [Interlude] to suggest a wordless passage. If the song feels rushed, shorten long lyric lines and keep the syllable pattern of repeated lines similar.

For a wordless track, Dopamine Girl still requires text in the Lyrics field. Describe the instrumental lead in Style and use a section-only structure such as:

[Verse]

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

[Outro]

Optional ABC Notation

Generate ABC notation is optional and starts off. Turn it on if you want Yue2 to make a melody-and-chord plan before generating the audio. Leave it off to generate directly from Style and Lyrics. Dopamine Girl uses the full planning mode when the toggle is on; it does not offer a melody-only mode or a score editor in this tool.

Duration, Price, and Seed

The selected duration is a maximum, not a promise that the song will fill it. Dopamine Girl reserves up to $0.01 per selected minute when you submit. After the MP3 is finished, it charges $0.01 per minute of finished audio, prorated by measured seconds, and releases the unused reservation. A six-minute maximum therefore reserves up to $0.06, while a shorter finished song costs less.

You can enable Use fixed seed to reuse a seed while changing a prompt. This helps compare attempts, but changing the prompt or generation settings can still change the song.

If the Result Misses Your Intent

  • The vocal sounds unlike the request: Make the singer's tone, language, and delivery explicit in Style.
  • Lyrics are rushed or unclear: Use shorter lines and fewer words per section.
  • The chorus does not return: Repeat its full text under a second [Chorus] label.
  • The arrangement feels flat: Describe what changes between the verse, chorus, and bridge in Style.
  • The song ends early: Add another complete section; raising the maximum alone does not add musical material.

For more prompting detail, see the YuE2 style and lyrics guide and the YuE2 project guide.

Anima Prompting Guide

Anima is a text-to-image model built for anime, illustration, and non-photorealistic art. It can make polished character art, stylized scenes, and painterly images, but it is not designed for realistic photos.

Use this guide when you want cleaner anime prompts, stronger character control, and fewer accidental style or safety misses.

Best Starting Point

Start with this positive prompt prefix:

masterpiece, best quality, score_7, safe,

Use this negative prompt:

worst quality, low quality, score_1, score_2, score_3, artist name

Then add your subject, character, style, and scene details after the prefix.

Tag Prompt Formula

For tag-based prompts, use this order:

[quality/meta/year/safety tags], [1girl/1boy/1other], [character], [series], [artist], [general tags]

Example:

masterpiece, best quality, score_7, safe, 1girl, original character, newest, highres, long black hair, blue eyes, school uniform, cherry blossoms, soft smile, looking at viewer, sunset, warm lighting, detailed background

The sections do not need to be perfect, but keeping the big pieces in this order helps Anima understand what matters most.

Useful Tag Groups

Quality tags

  • masterpiece
  • best quality
  • good quality
  • normal quality
  • low quality
  • worst quality

Score tags

  • score_9
  • score_8
  • score_7
  • score_6
  • score_5

You can use quality tags, score tags, both, or neither. A reliable default is masterpiece, best quality, score_7.

Time period tags

  • newest
  • recent
  • mid
  • early
  • old
  • year 2025
  • year 2024

Use these when you want the image to feel closer to a specific era of anime art.

Meta tags

  • highres
  • absurdres
  • anime screenshot
  • official art
  • jpeg artifacts

Safety tags

  • safe
  • sensitive
  • nsfw
  • explicit

Use safe in the positive prompt when you want non-explicit output. Add unwanted safety classes to the negative prompt if the image keeps drifting.

Tag Hygiene

  • Use lowercase for tags.
  • Use spaces instead of underscores, except score tags like score_7.
  • When a tag name differs between Danbooru and Gelbooru, use the Gelbooru-style tag.
  • Do not list every possible detail. Anima was trained with tag dropout, so a focused set of important tags is usually better than a cluttered prompt.

Artist Tags

Prefix artist names with @.

@artist name

The @ matters. Without it, the artist reference may be much weaker.

Example:

masterpiece, best quality, score_7, safe, 1girl, original character, @artist name, silver hair, red scarf, winter street, snow, cinematic lighting

Only use artist references when you have the right to do so and the result is appropriate for your project.

Natural Language Prompts

Anima also understands normal descriptive prompts. Use at least two sentences when writing pure natural language; very short prompts can produce unpredictable results.

Example:

masterpiece, best quality, score_7, safe. Digital anime illustration of an original young mage with short auburn hair and green eyes, wearing a navy cloak with silver embroidery. She stands in a moonlit library, holding a glowing spellbook while dust motes float through the air. Warm candlelight, detailed background, gentle expression, crisp line art.

For named characters, describe their appearance after the name. This is especially important when prompting multiple characters.

Digital anime illustration of Character A, a tall girl with long purple hair and violet eyes, standing beside Character B, a short boy with messy brown hair and round glasses. They are arguing in a crowded train station at night, neon signs reflected on the wet floor.

Mixing Tags And Sentences

You can combine tag blocks and prose in the same prompt. A good structure is:

[quality tags], [safety tag], [character count], [core visual tags]. [One or two natural language sentences with the scene, action, lighting, and mood.]

Example:

masterpiece, best quality, score_7, safe, 1girl, original character, highres, blue hair, raincoat, umbrella. A quiet anime street scene at dusk, with the girl standing under a red umbrella while rain ripples across puddles. Soft reflections, melancholy mood, detailed storefronts, cinematic composition.

Non-Anime Art Prompts

Anima can also respond to non-anime illustration captions. For these, use a dataset-style label at the beginning, then describe the artwork in natural language.

deviantart
Moonlit Garden
Digital painting of a quiet fantasy garden under blue moonlight, with glowing flowers, stone arches, and a small fountain. Soft brushwork, cool colors, dreamlike atmosphere.
ye-pop
Retro Travel Poster
A bold graphic poster of a mountain railway crossing a red bridge above a pine forest. Clean shapes, limited color palette, vintage print texture.

Use this when you want painterly, poster, abstract, or illustration styles that do not need a standard anime tag structure.

Prompt Weighting

Prompt weighting works, but Anima may need stronger weights than some SDXL workflows.

(chibi:2)

Use weighting for a small number of important traits. If everything is weighted, nothing is really prioritized.

Generation Settings

The Anima model card recommends:

  • Resolution: between 512 x 512 and 1536 x 1536
  • Steps: 30-50
  • CFG: 4-5

Sampler behavior can change the look:

  • er_sde: neutral style, flat colors, sharp lines; a good default.
  • euler_a: softer and thinner lines; can lean toward a 2.5D look.
  • dpmpp_2m_sde_gpu: similar to er_sde, but can produce more variety and more unexpected results.

If your image looks overcooked, lower CFG or simplify the prompt. If it looks too plain, add stronger quality, style, lighting, and composition tags.

Starter Recipes

Clean character portrait

masterpiece, best quality, score_7, safe, 1girl, original character, highres, short pink hair, amber eyes, white blouse, black ribbon, soft smile, looking at viewer, simple background, studio lighting, crisp line art

Detailed fantasy scene

masterpiece, best quality, score_8, safe, 1girl, original character, highres, fantasy armor, silver hair, glowing sword. She stands on a broken bridge above a misty canyon as ancient ruins float in the distance. Dramatic clouds, rim lighting, detailed background, painterly anime style.

Anime screenshot feel

best quality, score_7, safe, anime screenshot, 1boy, original character, messy black hair, school blazer. A tense hallway scene after class, the boy pauses beside a window as orange sunset light cuts across the floor. Subtle expression, cinematic framing, shallow depth of field.

Stylized poster

masterpiece, best quality, score_8, safe, official art, 1girl, original character, twin tails, futuristic idol outfit, microphone, neon stage, spotlight, dynamic pose, vivid colors, clean graphic composition, poster art

Fix Common Problems

The result is too plain

  • Add masterpiece, best quality, and a higher score tag.
  • Add a clear style target such as anime screenshot, official art, painterly anime style, or crisp line art.
  • Describe lighting, composition, and background instead of only naming the character.

The model changes the character

  • Put the character name earlier in the prompt.
  • Describe hair, eyes, outfit, body type, and signature accessories.
  • For multiple characters, describe each character separately.

The image drifts into unwanted content

  • Keep safe in the positive prompt.
  • Put unwanted safety categories in the negative prompt.
  • Make the scene more specific so the model has less room to improvise.

Text in the image looks wrong

  • Avoid long written phrases inside the image.
  • Ask for a simple sign, logo, or single word only when needed.
  • Add the exact wording afterward with an editor if the text must be accurate.

Final Checklist

  • Start with masterpiece, best quality, score_7, safe.
  • Put quality, year, meta, and safety tags before character and scene tags.
  • Use lowercase tags with spaces instead of underscores, except score tags like score_7.
  • Prefer focused tags over exhaustive tag lists.
  • Prefix artist tags with @.
  • Write at least two sentences for pure natural language prompts.
  • Use a detailed negative prompt when the output drifts.
  • Avoid realism prompts; Anima is strongest at anime, illustration, and stylized art.

SDXL Prompting Guide

SDXL is a flexible text-to-image model for general creative work: photos, product concepts, realistic portraits, design mockups, cinematic scenes, and broad illustration styles.

SDXL usually works best with clear natural language. You do not need a huge pile of quality words. A specific subject, clear composition, and believable lighting usually matter more than repeating masterpiece or ultra high quality.

Want anime, cartoon, furry, or tag-heavy character prompts? Use the Pony Diffusion Prompting Guide.

Prompt Formula

Use this structure:

[subject] + [action/pose] + [scene] + [composition] + [lighting] + [medium/style] + [quality details]

Example:

A modern perfume bottle on wet black stone, centered product photography, softbox reflection, shallow depth of field, cool blue rim light, luxury advertising style, crisp glass details

For best control, make the first words identify the main subject. Then add the frame, lighting, and visual style.

Prompt Building Blocks

Subject

  • Who or what is in the image.
  • Add material, clothing, age range, product type, or defining traits.
  • Keep one main subject unless you need a complex composition.

Action or pose

  • Describe what the subject is doing.
  • For portraits, use pose and expression: looking at camera, relaxed smile, three-quarter view.
  • For products, use placement: resting on marble, floating above a matte pedestal.

Scene

  • Name the location and background.
  • Include important foreground or background objects only when they matter.

Composition

  • Use camera and framing terms: close-up, wide shot, centered composition, rule of thirds, negative space.
  • For photography, lens cues help: 35mm, 50mm, 85mm, macro lens.

Lighting

  • Use practical light descriptions: softbox, golden hour, neon rim light, overcast daylight, hard side light.
  • Lighting often improves the image more than generic quality tags.

Medium and style

  • Examples: product photography, cinematic still, editorial illustration, fantasy concept art, watercolor, 3D render.
  • Avoid conflicting styles like photorealistic anime watercolor 3D render unless you want a hybrid.

Negative Prompts

Keep negatives short at first:

blurry, low quality, distorted, extra fingers, bad hands, text, watermark, logo

For portraits, add:

deformed face, asymmetrical eyes, bad anatomy, extra limbs

Avoid massive negative prompts unless you know what each token is doing. Large negatives can remove useful detail and make images look generic.

Starter Recipes

Product photo

Premium wireless headphones resting on brushed aluminum, close-up product photography, soft studio lighting, clean reflections, black and white color palette, sharp edges, commercial advertising composition

Cinematic portrait

Portrait of a confident fashion model in a rain-soaked city street at night, 85mm lens, shallow depth of field, neon signs reflected in puddles, soft key light, natural skin texture, cinematic color grading

Fantasy concept art

A lone explorer standing before a colossal stone gate carved into a mountain, wide establishing shot, morning mist, golden rim light, detailed environment, epic fantasy concept art, painterly realism

Editorial illustration

Minimal editorial illustration of a glass greenhouse floating above a dense city, clean geometric shapes, muted color palette, soft shadows, modern magazine cover composition

Troubleshooting

The image ignores the subject

  • Put the subject first.
  • Remove conflicting style words.
  • Make the scene simpler.
  • Describe the subject with concrete visual traits.

The image looks plastic or oversharpened

  • Remove stacked quality tokens.
  • Use natural lighting terms instead of only high detail.

The composition is messy

  • Use one clear shot type.
  • Reduce the number of subjects and props.
  • Add framing language like centered, close-up, wide establishing shot, or clean negative space.

Text in the image looks wrong

  • Avoid asking SDXL to render long exact text.
  • Use simple labels only when needed.
  • Add exact typography later with an editor when accuracy matters.

Final Checklist

  • Put the subject first.
  • Add composition and lighting before generic quality words.
  • Use a short negative prompt, then add only the fixes you need.
  • Remove conflicting style words before adding more detail.

Pony Diffusion Prompting Guide

Pony Diffusion is an SDXL-family model built for stylized character work, anime/cartoon looks, furry or creature art, strong character references, and tag-heavy prompts.

Unlike general SDXL, Pony depends heavily on score, source, rating, and character tags. Put those tags at the start before the scene details.

Need general photo, product, design, or cinematic image prompts? Use the SDXL Prompting Guide.

Prompt Formula

Use this structure:

[score tags], [source tag], [rating tag], [subject count], [character/style tags], [scene/action/details]

Reliable safe starter:

score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, score_6_up, source_anime, rating_safe,

Full quality string:

score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, score_6_up, score_5_up, score_4_up,

Pony can understand plain language, but the score and source tags are a big part of how the model was trained.

Score Tags

  • score_9
  • score_8_up
  • score_7_up
  • score_6_up
  • score_5_up
  • score_4_up

Use at least the top three or four. score_9 by itself is usually weaker than the combined string.

Source Tags

  • source_anime for anime styling
  • source_cartoon for western/cartoon styling
  • source_furry for furry or anthro styling
  • source_pony for pony-style outputs

Put the source tag right after the score tags. Start with one source tag, then add or change it only if the style is drifting.

Rating Tags

  • rating_safe for SFW images
  • rating_questionable for in-between content
  • rating_explicit for explicit content

For general DopamineGirl docs, keep rating_safe in the positive prompt and put unwanted rating tags in the negative prompt.

Common Character Tags

  • 1girl, 1boy, 2girls, solo
  • looking at viewer
  • standing, sitting, running
  • detailed eyes, detailed background
  • long hair, short hair, black hair, blue eyes

Use tags for stable identity details, then add a short natural language phrase for the scene or mood.

Negative Prompts

Start simple:

ugly, deformed, blurry, low quality, bad hands, extra fingers, text, watermark, signature, rating_explicit

To push away from a source family, add that source tag to the negative prompt. For example, add source_furry if you want a human anime character and the model keeps drifting toward anthro traits.

Use source negatives carefully. They can remove useful anatomy and style knowledge if you overdo them.

Starter Recipes

Anime character portrait

score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, score_6_up, source_anime, rating_safe, 1girl, solo, long silver hair, blue eyes, school uniform, soft smile, looking at viewer, cherry blossom trees, warm sunset light, detailed eyes, clean line art

Cartoon action scene

score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, score_6_up, source_cartoon, rating_safe, 1boy, dynamic pose, red jacket, jumping across rooftops, city skyline, exaggerated motion, dramatic clouds, bold colors, detailed background

Stylized creature portrait

score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, score_6_up, source_furry, rating_safe, solo, friendly fox adventurer, green cloak, leather satchel, forest path, soft morning light, expressive eyes, painterly cartoon style

Known character style prompt

score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, score_6_up, source_anime, rating_safe, 1girl, [character name], detailed outfit, confident pose, dramatic backlight, cinematic composition, detailed background

Replace [character name] with the actual character. If the model mixes details, describe the hair, eyes, outfit, accessories, and pose instead of relying only on the name.

Troubleshooting

The output looks low quality

  • Use the score tag string at the beginning.
  • Add a source tag like source_anime or source_cartoon.
  • Add clearer subject, pose, and style tags.

The image drifts into the wrong style

  • Add the correct source tag earlier.
  • Put unwanted source tags in the negative prompt.
  • Add a concrete style phrase like anime screenshot, cartoon style, or painterly cartoon style.

The model changes the character

  • Put the character name earlier.
  • Describe hair, eyes, outfit, accessories, and pose.
  • For multiple characters, describe each character separately.

Hands or anatomy fail

  • Add pose clarity: hands visible, holding a cup with both hands, standing straight.
  • Avoid asking for too many limbs, props, and interactions at once.
  • Generate multiple seeds and keep the best composition.

Final Checklist

  • Start with score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, score_6_up.
  • Add one source tag such as source_anime, source_cartoon, or source_furry.
  • Add rating_safe when you want safe outputs.
  • Put subject count tags like 1girl, 1boy, or solo before scene details.
  • Use a short negative prompt, then add only the fixes you need.
  • Describe important character traits instead of relying only on names.

Sampler and Scheduler Guide

Most people can leave the image generator's Sampler section at its model defaults. Change these controls when you have a clear problem to solve and a baseline image to compare against.

What the controls mean

ControlEffectFirst adjustment to try
SeedSets the starting noise. It helps you compare variations with other settings held steady.Turn on Use Fixed Seed before changing a single setting.
Sampler StepsSets how many denoising steps run. More steps take longer and do not always improve the image.Return to the model default; then adjust gradually.
Prompt GuidanceControls how strongly the sampling follows the prompt in supported workflows. Very high values may hurt quality.Change it slightly, then compare with the same seed.
SamplerChooses the sampling algorithm. It can change the look of an image.Try one alternative offered by your selected model.
SchedulerControls how the sampling steps are distributed.Keep the sampler fixed when testing a new scheduler.

These terms describe the underlying ComfyUI KSampler controls. Dopamine Girl exposes only the controls supported by the chosen model; some models use different sampling workflows.

Compare settings without guessing

  1. Generate a baseline with the default sampler and scheduler. Save the result or keep it open.
  2. Enable Use Fixed Seed and record the seed, model, checkpoint, dimensions, prompt, and steps.
  3. Change only the sampler or scheduler and generate again.
  4. Compare the subject, composition, artifacts, and time taken. Keep the better setting or return to the default.

There is no universally best sampler and scheduler pair. A combination that helps one checkpoint, prompt, or step count may look worse with another. The current choices in the generator are the ones you can actually submit.

If the result ignores the subject, first improve the prompt. If an image-to-image result changes too little or too much, adjust its Creativity control before experimenting with samplers. In ComfyUI image-to-image workflows, the related denoise value controls how much of the source structure is preserved: lower values preserve more and higher values change more. See the official ComfyUI image-to-image explanation. Dopamine Girl's control is presented as Creativity, so use its visible scale rather than entering ComfyUI's raw denoise numbers.

Upload and Use a LoRA

A LoRA is a small model add-on that can influence a character, style, or concept. It must match the model family you use to generate. A LoRA made for SDXL will not work as a Flux or video LoRA. Check the community LoRA library before importing a copy of one that is already available.

Before you import

  1. Check the model page's base model and choose the matching family in Dopamine Girl. The upload form lists the families currently supported, including image families and separate video families for Wan 2.2, LTX 2.3, and MiniMax H3.
  2. Check the exact file and version. The supported format is .safetensors. A CivitAI model page can contain several versions for different base models, so choose the intended version before copying its link.
  3. Make sure you have permission to use the LoRA and the source is public if you plan to import it from CivitAI.
  4. Check the pricing page and the price shown in the upload form. Importing a LoRA uses credit.

Import a file or CivitAI version

Open Upload LoRA and select Upload.

  1. Choose the Model Family that matches the LoRA's base model.
  2. Enter a LoRA Name using 6–40 letters, numbers, or underscores.
  3. Choose the method offered for that family:
    • Upload File: select a .safetensors file up to 400 MB. This is available for image LoRA families.
    • CivitAI URL: paste a public CivitAI model page or download URL. The selected safetensors file must be under 700 MB. If the page has several versions, include the version you want in the URL.
  4. Submit and wait for the item to finish processing. The page shows its status. A failed task is not ready for generation.

Wan 2.2, LTX 2.3, and MiniMax H3 video LoRAs use the CivitAI URL method in the current form. Video model families are distinct: for example, a Wan LoRA does not work with MiniMax H3. For Wan image-to-video, check that the version is a high-noise LoRA; that is the variant the current Wan workflow applies to user-selected LoRAs.

Use it in a generation

Open the matching image or video tool, select its base model, and choose Add LoRA. Pick your LoRA from your library or the community, then adjust its weight if needed. Start near the default weight and change it gradually; strong weights can overwhelm the prompt or create artifacts.

The image generator no longer accepts <lora:name:weight> inside prompt text. Select LoRAs in the LoRA section so the chosen file and weight are actually used. If the LoRA is unavailable, first check the model family, processing status, and whether the item is enabled.

For a face-swap LoRA and its specific input order, see the Face Swap Guide. For H3 video LoRAs, see the MiniMax H3 Guide.

Launch the Face Swap Tool ↗

Ready to give your characters a surprise cameo? Follow along and you’ll go from “wait, whose face is that?” to shareable mashups in just a few clicks. 😎

What You Need 🎒

  • Source image — the faces you want to borrow.
  • Target image — the faces you want to overwrite.
  • Five faces max in each image. If you spot more than five, trim the shot before uploading.

How Matching Works 🤝

We auto-match faces from left → right, top → bottom between your source and target. Want to take control? Drag the little numbered badges on the target preview to remap any pairings.

Follow-Along Example 🎬

Want to test-drive without hunting for assets? Download the two images below so we’re on the same page.

Source face:

Target crew:

Drop them into the tool and you’ll see the default layout:

Now swap Source #1 into each target slot and watch the faces change:

  • Target #1:
  • Target #2:
  • Target #3:

Each swap respects the target’s pose and lighting, so experiment with different pairings until the expression lands.

Tips For Cleaner Swaps 🧼

  • Keep faces clear. Avoid heavy shadows, sunglasses, or hair blocking the eyes.
  • Match lighting. Photos shot in similar lighting blend way better.
  • Scale matters. If one face is tiny and the other is close-up, resize the images before swapping.
  • Try multiple targets. Drag the badges to test new combos without re-uploading.

Give it a spin and let your characters crash each other’s photos. If anything looks off, tweak the mapping or try a different source—iteration is the secret sauce. ✨

Alternative: Generative Head Swap With Magic Edit ✨

If the standard Face Swap tool does not give you the look you want, try a generative head swap with the Magic Edit tool and a compatible BFS (Best Face Swap) LoRA. This workflow can transfer the whole head—including hair and facial details—while asking the model to blend it into the target pose, lighting, and body.

DopamineGirl supports these BFS choices in Magic Edit:

Magic Edit modelFace-swap LoRA to selectImages
Qwen ImageBFS Head V5 – 2511 (recommended)Add the target/body as Reference 1, then the donor face/head as Reference 2. Magic Edit automatically combines the references left to right into one guide image.
Flux2 Klein 9BBFS Head V1/V2 – Flux 2 Klein 9B (recommended)Add the target/body as Reference 1, then the donor face/head as Reference 2.

The BFS repository also lists Flux 2 Klein 4B, Krea 2, and older Qwen variants, but those versions are not supported by this DopamineGirl workflow. See the BFS model page on Hugging Face for the upstream model details and examples.

How to use it

  1. Open Magic Edit.
  2. Select Qwen Image or Flux2 Klein 9B as the model.
  3. Open LoRA, choose the matching BFS face-swap LoRA from the library, and keep its default weight for your first attempt.
  4. Add the image or ordered references shown in the table above. The first subject is the target whose body, pose, lighting, and background should remain; the second subject supplies the new face and head.
  5. Paste the matching example prompt below into Edit Prompt, then adjust the identity, expression, or blending instructions for your images.
  6. Select Edit Image. If the result changes too much, strengthen the instructions about what must stay unchanged or try clearer, better-aligned source images.

Example prompt for Qwen Image

Add the target/body as Reference 1 and the donor face/head as Reference 2. Qwen Image accepts up to three references, combines them left to right, and uses the first reference for the output size. For this two-image example, the target/body is on the left and the donor face/head is on the right. You can also upload an already combined guide as a single reference:

head_swap: Keep the person on the left as the base, including their body, pose, expression, lighting, clothes, and background. Replace only their head with the head of the person on the right. Preserve the right person's identity, hair, eyes, nose, mouth, and skin texture. Match the original head angle and blend the skin tone, shadows, neck, and proportions naturally.

Example prompt for Flux2 Klein 9B

Use this after adding the target/body as Reference 1 and the donor face/head as Reference 2:

head_swap: Use Reference 1 as the base and keep its body, pose, expression, lighting, clothes, and background. Replace its head with the head from Reference 2. Preserve the identity, hair, eyes, nose, mouth, and skin texture from Reference 2. Match the head angle from Reference 1 and blend the skin tone, shadows, neck, and anatomical proportions naturally. Produce a sharp, detailed result.

Use images of yourself or people who have given you permission. Do not use this workflow to impersonate public figures or non-consenting individuals.

FaceSwap Video 🎞️

Want to take the swap beyond stills? The video tool slices your clip into individual frames, runs the face swap on each one, then stitches everything back together so you get a finished video.

  • Launch the FaceSwap Video Tool ↗
  • Keep clips at or below 1000 frames. The tool validates and extracts the frames before the job enters the worker queue.
  • Face ordering and drag-and-drop mapping work the same way as the still-image tool, with up to five mapped faces.
  • Processing costs $0.002 per frame (20 credits per frame). The waiting card reports swapped frames out of the total, starting at 0 / total.
  • After every frame is swapped, the frames are encoded into an MP4 and the original audio is preserved when the source audio codec can be copied. If direct copying is not compatible, the audio is re-encoded to AAC.

FaceSwap Video is an idle-only worker task, so normal image, video, and other generation work is assigned first. For best results, trim your footage so the subject stays framed similarly throughout. That keeps the per-frame swaps tight and makes the final render feel natural.

Troubleshooting Generations

Work from the simplest possible job: one prompt, one model, default settings, and no optional LoRAs or references. Change one thing at a time so you know what helped.

What you seeWhat to check
Generate or Edit Image will not submitConfirm that you are signed in, have available credit, and supplied all required inputs. Check any message shown beside the control.
A job is still processingCheck the tool's Results panel or mobile Results tab, then History. Avoid repeatedly submitting the same paid job while one is already running.
The result is unlike the promptPut the main subject first, remove conflicting styles, and describe visible details. Try Basic Prompting.
A reference barely changes the outputCheck that it is active and that its reference type is supported by the selected model. For image-to-image, adjust the Creativity control in small increments.
An edit changes too muchState what should remain unchanged, use fewer simultaneous requests, and check the input image crop and order. See Magic Edit.
A LoRA does not appear or gives poor resultsSelect a LoRA for the current model family, confirm it is enabled, and try a lower weight. Select LoRAs through Add LoRA, not <lora:...> prompt text.
A video moves too much or too littleDescribe one action and one camera move over the selected duration. Use a clear first frame. See Video Generation.

For a reproducible comparison, keep a fixed seed, model, dimensions, and sampler while changing one prompt phrase. Different models and workflows can interpret the same seed differently. ComfyUI's KSampler reference explains the seed, steps, guidance, sampler, scheduler, and denoising controls used by many image workflows.

If a job fails, keep its link or ID, the tool and model you selected, the approximate time, and the error message. For account or billing problems, see the Payment FAQ or email tony@dopaminegirl.com. Do not send passwords or payment credentials.

Pay with Cryptocurrency

This guide explains how to get cryptocurrency and use it to top up credits. Dopamine Girl creates a payment invoice through its checkout provider; the invoice is the authority for the supported coin, network, address, amount, and deadline. Available options can change.

New to cryptocurrency?

You can ask an AI assistant such as ChatGPT how to buy cryptocurrency in your country. For example, ask: “How can I buy cryptocurrency in [my country] and send it to pay an invoice? Compare Binance, Coinbase, and Strike for availability, payment methods, fees, withdrawal limits, and supported coins and networks. Link to current official instructions.” Check the answer against the provider's current instructions and your local rules before buying or sending.

Places to look include Binance, Coinbase, and Strike. Their services vary by country. Strike focuses on Bitcoin, so use it only if the invoice offers Bitcoin on a network Strike can send to. Whichever service you choose, make sure it lets you send the exact coin and network shown on your invoice.

Create an invoice

  1. Sign in and open Top up credits.
  2. Select Crypto, enter an amount accepted by the form, and select Pay Now.
  3. On the invoice, choose a coin and network that your sending wallet supports. Read the exact amount, destination address, and any memo or destination tag shown there.

Do not reuse an address from an earlier invoice. Keep the new invoice open until you have checked the transfer details.

Send the payment

  1. In your wallet or exchange, choose Send or Withdraw.
  2. Select the same coin and network as the invoice. A token name alone does not identify its network.
  3. Copy the address from the invoice. If it displays a memo or tag, include that too.
  4. Enter the invoice's requested amount. Check whether your wallet deducts network fees from the amount sent.
  5. Compare the destination and network one last time, then confirm.

Sending the wrong asset, network, amount, or memo can delay or prevent automatic crediting. The checkout provider's payment FAQ explains common mismatches. If you are unsure about any field, stop before sending and ask your wallet provider or Dopamine Girl support.

Check the result

Keep the invoice link and transaction hash (TXID). Once the payment is confirmed and credited, check Billing Overview for the balance and Billing History for the purchase record.

If the transfer is confirmed on the network but your balance has not changed, contact tony@dopaminegirl.com with your account name, invoice or payment ID, coin and network, amount, transaction hash, and approximate time. Do not send a seed phrase, private key, or account password.

You can also use Telegram Stars if that payment method suits you better.

Pay with Telegram Stars

Telegram Stars are used for digital purchases inside Telegram. Your final price for Stars can depend on how you buy them and your region; check the amount shown by Telegram before confirming. See Telegram's Stars explanation.

Create and pay for an order

  1. Sign in to Dopamine Girl and open Top up credits.
  2. Select Telegram Star, enter an amount accepted by the form, and select Pay Now.
  3. Complete the order in Telegram. Check the Stars amount and confirm only if it matches what you expect.
  4. Save the order ID provided for the successful payment. Telegram also keeps a payment receipt in the bot chat; see its payment documentation.

The Dopamine Girl payment bot is another way to open the Telegram flow. If you use the bot directly, follow its current amount and payment instructions rather than relying on an old screenshot.

Redeem the order

Return to Top up credits, select Telegram Star, then select Redeem Telegram Payment. Paste the order ID and submit. You can also open the Telegram billing page.

Check Billing Overview for your updated balance. Billing History lists successful purchases recorded in the past 12 months.

If something goes wrong

  • No order ID: check the bot chat and Telegram payment receipt before starting another purchase.
  • Order ID is rejected: check for extra spaces, make sure you are signed in to the intended Dopamine Girl account, and confirm the payment succeeded in Telegram.
  • Payment succeeded but credit is missing: keep the order ID and receipt, then email tony@dopaminegirl.com with your account name, approximate time, and a description of the problem. Do not send passwords or payment credentials.

For other billing questions, see the Payment FAQ. You can also pay with cryptocurrency.

Payment FAQ

Dopamine Girl uses prepaid credit for paid tools. There is no recurring subscription. Before submitting a generation, review its settings and the current pricing page.

Credits and prices

Where can I see my balance and expiry dates?

Open Billing Overview. It shows your available balance and each credit wallet's expiration date. Purchased credits expire 365 days after purchase.

What will a generation cost?

The pricing page lists current USD prices by feature. The cost can depend on the model, output size, duration, number of images, steps, and references. Some image models use fixed sampling settings; others have step-based pricing. Review the tool's settings and any price notes before submitting.

Where can I see what used my credit?

Open Credit Usage for the credit transaction list. Billing History shows successful purchases recorded in the past 12 months. Those pages answer different questions: credit usage tracks spending, while billing history tracks purchases.

Adding credit

How do I top up?

Open Top up credits, enter an amount allowed by the form, and choose one of the payment methods currently shown there. Use the matching Crypto Payment Guide or Telegram Stars Guide for step-by-step help. Payment options can vary, so use the choices displayed on the checkout page.

I paid but my balance has not changed. What should I check?

Check Billing Overview and Billing History after the payment is confirmed. A pending or partially paid invoice may need more time or manual review. Do not make another payment just because the first one has not yet appeared. Keep the payment reference or transaction hash and contact support if it remains unresolved.

Can I get a receipt or invoice?

Billing History shows the purchase reference, method, amount, and date for successful purchases in the last 12 months. If you need a formal receipt or an older record, contact support with the purchase reference. Do not send card details, wallet secrets, or passwords.

Need help?

Email tony@dopaminegirl.com with your account name, payment method, purchase reference or transaction hash, approximate time, and a brief description of the issue. For a failed generation, include the job or art link and the error message.

10.1 While using our Services, you may share confidential information with us, and you may become aware of confidential information about us. You agree not to use our confidential information, and to take reasonable steps to protect our confidential information from being disclosed without our permission, and we agree to do the same for your confidential information.

11. Consumer Law Rights

11.1 In some jurisdictions, you may have guarantees, rights or other remedies provided by law (Consumer Law Rights), and these Terms do not restrict your Consumer Law Rights. We will only be bound by your Consumer Law Rights and the express wording of these Terms.
