FAQ

Q: What’s the fastest way to get better results?

A: Iterate. Generate 8–12 options, keep 2, refine. Don’t fight a single image.

Q: Why are hands still weird?

A: Hands are small, articulated, and underrepresented in training data compared to faces. Use wider framing, hide hands, or regenerate.

Q: Should I use negative prompts?

A: Yes when available. Use them to remove artifacts (extra fingers, blurry text, noisy background).

Q: How do I get consistent characters?

A: Use reference images, keep wardrobe + lighting consistent, and iterate from a chosen base image.

Q: How do I keep outputs on-brand?

A: References + a small style vocabulary beat long prompts.

Q: The model keeps ignoring my layout request.

A: Be explicit about composition (centered, negative space, hero object) and then fix layout in the canvas.
