Exploring the Power of Content Reference

Content Reference is not merely a tool; it’s a transformative approach to image creation. By using the shape and form of any input image as a guide, Content Reference goes beyond simple depth or edge mapping. It semantically guides the image generation process based on the content of the input image. This means that the artist’s prompt can effectively dictate the color and style of the generated image, opening up a plethora of possibilities for restyling existing images or creating something entirely new from old concepts.

Practical Applications of Content Reference:

• Restyling: Artists can take an existing image and use it as a content reference, applying a different style reference to completely transform the image’s appearance.
• Variations: By tweaking the prompt, creators can use the same base image to produce multiple variations, experimenting with different styles and aesthetics without starting from scratch.
• Text Transformation: Content Reference can also be utilized to transform images of large text into highly stylized outputs, ideal for creating unique graphical text that stands out.

Mastering the Art of Mixing with Multi-Style Reference

The Multi-Style Reference feature is designed for creators who want to blend and mix different artistic styles with high precision. This feature allows the addition of up to four different style references, each of which can be weighted independently. This capability is particularly useful for projects that require a fusion of textures, genres, and artistic styles, creating visuals that are innovative and captivating.

Key Features of Multi-Style Reference:

• Independent Weighting: Each style reference can be adjusted individually, allowing creators to fine-tune the influence of each style on the final image.
• Shared Strength: While the overall strength of the style influence is shared across the references, the ability to adjust each one independently helps achieve a balanced or desired dominance of certain styles over others.
