- 1Click “Create free now” on the home page, or “Sign up” in the top-right corner.
- 2Register with email (enter your email and password; if asked for a code, click “Send code” and check your inbox), or continue with Google / GitHub.

Sign up →2Text to image
- 1After logging in, open the “Create” workspace.

- 3Click the green “Generate” button or press Enter (Shift + Enter for a new line). Images usually arrive in seconds.
- 4Want a richer description? Type an idea and click “Enhance prompt” — AI adds scene, composition and lighting detail while keeping your intent; click “Undo” if you prefer the original.
- 5Each result shows the credits it cost. Click “New image” to start fresh.
💡 Every prompt passes a content-safety check; disallowed requests are refused.
Open the workspace →3Pick a model, style, aspect ratio and count
- 1The row of buttons at the bottom of the creation box opens an options panel just above it.
- 2Model: models differ in look and price; the list shows credits per image and is searchable.
- 3Style: “Presets” has 40+ one-click styles (e-commerce product, food photography, 3D cartoon, Chinese ink, anime…) grouped by General / Photo / Illustration / 3D / Art; the “Style library” has 9,000+ styles — art movements, techniques, lighting & composition, aesthetics, artists and film & anime — searchable. The chosen style shows on the button — click × to clear it.
- 4Aspect ratio: 1:1 square, 2:3 portrait or 3:2 landscape.
- 5Count: generate 1–4 images at once; credits are charged per image actually generated.

5Use the style library
