(Other text-to-image AI generators’ outcomes)
While the Background Prompt Builder is optimized for Midjourney, we’ve explored its capabilities with other leading text-to-image AI generators, including Dall-E, Leonardo, Flux, and Ideogram. Each platform offers unique strengths, delivering varied results depending on the task. That said, Midjourney consistently proves to be the most versatile tool for crafting diverse and complex backgrounds.
- Dall-E: Excels in producing artistic illustrative backgrounds and pleasing textures, though its photorealistic backgrounds are less impressive.
- Leonardo: The latest version of the Phoenix model generates clean and polished images, but they can sometimes feel overly refined.
- Ideogram: Offers strong performance in both illustrative and photorealistic backgrounds but doesn’t surpass Midjourney.
- Flux: Particularly notable for its ability to create designs without adding unwanted text, making it ideal for digital products like backgrounds without any extra work.
All these platforms are free to try and offer exceptional capabilities, making them great tools for a variety of background projects.
