Dall-E, Ideogram, Leonardo, Flux
(Other text-to-image AI generators’ outcomes)
The Photo Prompt Builder is primarily designed for Midjourney but is also compatible with other popular text-to-image tools such as Dall-E, Leonardo, Flux, and Ideogram. While these platforms perform relatively well in the photo domain, each has its strengths, limitations, and unique specializations, which are summarized here. Midjourney still stands out as the top AI tool for photorealism, style diversity, and controllability through precise prompting.
- Leonardo: Using the latest Phoenix model produces beautiful results, though they can sometimes appear overly refined. For more realistic outcomes, experimenting with models like Portrait Perfect or Stock Photography can yield impressive results tailored to different needs.
- Flux: The PRO v1.1 Ultra version delivers stunning, photorealistic images. However, its outputs are limited to "beautiful" objects, as it lacks the ability to depict less appealing elements.
- Ideogram: When using the Auto, General, or Realistic models, the results are consistently realistic but lack Midjourney’s enhanced aesthetics. This AI excels in realism, sometimes too much, as characters can appear shabby or unattractive, resembling poorly captured candid shots.
- Dall-E: While Dall-E can create polished images, they often are grainy and lack the realism seen in other platforms. Additionally, with no significant updates in months, its results can appear outdated compared to its competitors.
All these platforms are free to try and can produce remarkable results, making them valuable tools for a wide range of photo projects.
Improving Results Across Platforms
The PRO version of the Photo Prompt Builder includes the “Enhance with ChatGPT” feature, which refines and optimizes prompts for better performance on all platforms such as Dall-E, Ideogram, Leonardo, Flux, and others. All the examples showcased on this page were created using enhanced prompts for optimal results.
