Be specific: describe who/what is in the image with details
Generated Prompt
Fill in the form and click "Generate" to create an optimized Midjourney prompt.
Tip: Be as specific as possible with your subject description. Instead of "a dog," try "a golden retriever puppy with a red bandana."
Midjourney Tips
- • Use the Three-Layer Framework: Subject → Style & Mood → Technical Details → Parameters
- • V8.2 is the default (--v 8.2) — it produces bolder, more varied images with fewer low-quality results than V8.1
- • V8 renders native 2048px (2K) HD — add --hd for maximum resolution and detail without a separate upscale step
- • Reference specific cameras for photorealism: "Shot on ARRI Alexa," "Canon 5D Mark IV"
- • Stylize (--s) controls artistic interpretation: 0 = literal, 1000 = maximum creativity
- • If you use moodboards or --sref on V8.2, add extra descriptive direction in the prompt — Midjourney says they work best that way on this version
- • Put exact words in quotes for signs, logos, and posters — V8.x renders text far better than V7
- • Keep prompts focused — too many conflicting directives produce messy results
- • Edit mode: write one plain-language change plus what stays the same; the V8.2 Edit model takes up to 4 image references and keeps the base image's aspect ratio
- • Seamless Tile: --tile on V8.1 and V8.2 now blends edge to edge with no visible seams (since September 24, 2026)

Midjourney Update Log
Thinking Mode test, seamless tiles, edit fixes
● LatestSeptember 24 to October 8, 2026- October 8: Midjourney began testing Thinking Mode on alpha.midjourney.com. It is a "Rerun (Thinking)" button in the lightbox for V8.2 standard and edit jobs, not a prompt parameter, and Midjourney says it helps prompt accuracy, typography and coherence.
- October 1: edits now keep the base image's aspect ratio, and folders can hold default parameters.
- September 24: --tile on V8.1 and V8.2 now blends invisibly from one tile to the next, and edit-model inpainting changes only the pixels you selected, so repeated edits no longer degrade the image. Pick Seamless Tile in the generator for pattern prompts.
Midjourney V8.2 Edit Model
August 27, 2026- Public test of the first V8.2 edit model opened on August 27, 2026. Midjourney calls it a test with "a lot of edge cases" and an alpha interface that is still changing.
- Edit an existing image with plain-language instructions, paint over areas to change them (inpainting) or extend the canvas (outpainting).
- Generate from up to 4 image references at once. It replaces Omni Reference; coverage also describes it as taking over Character Reference and Retexture workflows.
- Open it by dragging images into the prompt bar, clicking Edit in the lightbox, using the Edit tab in the sidebar, or --edit <url> on Discord.
- Midjourney notes that moodboards and style references (--sref) may need some extra prompt direction on this version.
Midjourney V8.2
July 24, 2026- Released July 24, 2026 and is now the default model (--v 8.2).
- Aesthetic update: Midjourney describes images as more creative, bold, sophisticated and edgy, with far fewer low-quality results.
- Much better Personalization: the model reads your rating history more accurately, and V8.2 profiles draw from a larger, improved pool of images to rate.
- Keeps the V8 feature set, including native 2K HD (--hd), image prompts and style references.
Midjourney V8.1
June 10, 2026- Became the default model on June 10, 2026 (alpha April 14, public rollout April 30) across midjourney.com and Discord.
- Native HD by default: standard output is now 2048×2048 (2K) with no separate upscale step — toggle SD/HD in settings or append --hd.
- Fastest model yet: standard jobs render 4–5× faster than earlier versions; HD is ~3× faster and 3× cheaper than V8.0, SD is 50% faster and 25% cheaper.
- Aesthetic restored toward V7's warmer, more familiar character after feedback on V8.0's flatter look — while keeping V8's stronger hands and anatomy.
- Best-in-family text rendering, plus a new Prompt Shortener and an updated Describe that returns longer, more detailed prompts.
- Restored V7 power features: image prompts, image weights, personalization profiles (--p), and more stable moodboards and style references.
Midjourney V8.0
April 2026- Full infrastructure rebuild with markedly improved hand rendering, anatomy, and prompt adherence.
- Drew criticism for a colder, flatter default aesthetic — addressed weeks later by V8.1's tuned look.
Midjourney V7
Previous default- Introduced personalization profiles (--p), draft mode, and the warmer aesthetic V8.1 brings back.
- Still selectable for projects tuned to its specific style and reference behavior.
Popular Midjourney V8.2 Use Cases
Where V8.2's bolder aesthetic, native 2K HD, image references and improved text and anatomy make the biggest difference.
Photoreal product & ad creative
Render packshots, hero shots, and campaign visuals at native 2K HD. V8.2's bolder aesthetic and fast native HD make it practical to iterate on marketing creative without upscaling.
Posters & typographic art
With V8's much stronger text rendering, put exact words in quotes to generate posters, album covers, and signage where the lettering needs to read cleanly.
Character & concept design
V8's improved anatomy and hands make it strong for character sheets, game assets, and concept art — use the V8.2 Edit model's image references (up to 4) and --p personalization for consistency.
Editorial & fashion photography
Reference real cameras and lighting ("Shot on ARRI Alexa, rim light, editorial") to produce magazine-grade portraits and lookbook frames.
Architecture & interior design
Generate exterior renders, interior mood boards, and material studies. Wide and panoramic aspect ratios with volumetric lighting sell the scale.
Brand & logo exploration
Spin up logo directions, icon systems, and sticker packs. Low stylize values keep the output literal and on-brief for design exploration.
Wallpapers & social backgrounds
21:9 and 9:16 ratios at 2K make ready-to-use desktop wallpapers, phone backgrounds, and scroll-stopping social graphics.
Storyboards & illustration
Map out scenes, children's-book spreads, and comic panels with consistent style references and moodboards held stable across a sequence.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Midjourney?
Midjourney is one of the most popular AI image generation tools, known for producing stunning artistic imagery. It runs via the Midjourney web interface or Discord, and uses a prompt + parameters system. The latest version, V8.2, became the default on July 24, 2026, building on V8.1's native 2K HD output and fast rendering with a bolder aesthetic, fewer low-quality results, and better Personalization.
What's new in Midjourney V8.2?
V8.2 was released on July 24, 2026 and is now the default model. Midjourney says it produces more creative, bold and sophisticated images with far fewer low-quality results, and Personalization is much better: it understands your preferences more accurately, and V8.2 profiles use a larger, improved pool of images to rate. On August 27, 2026 Midjourney also opened public testing of a V8.2 Edit model for plain-language edits, inpainting, outpainting and up to 4 image references, replacing Omni Reference.
What is the Midjourney V8.2 Edit model?
It is a test model (since August 27, 2026) that edits an existing image from written instructions, repaints selected areas or extends the canvas, and blends up to 4 image references in one job. It replaces Omni Reference, and coverage describes it as covering Character Reference and Retexture use cases too. Access it by dragging images into the prompt bar, via Edit in the lightbox or the Edit tab, or with --edit on Discord. Midjourney warns it still has edge cases.
Do moodboards and --sref still work on V8.2?
Yes, but Midjourney notes they may work best on this version with some extra prompt direction. Describe the colors, medium and mood you want alongside the reference instead of relying on the moodboard or --sref code alone.
What's new in Midjourney V8.1?
V8.1 became the default model on June 10, 2026. The headline changes: native 2048px (2K) HD output by default with no separate upscale, 4–5× faster standard renders, a warmer aesthetic that brings back V7's character while keeping V8's better hands and anatomy, best-in-family text rendering, a new Prompt Shortener, an updated Describe, and the return of image prompts, image weights, and personalization profiles (--p).
How does this prompt generator work?
You fill in structured inputs including Midjourney-specific parameters like Stylize (--s), Chaos (--c), version, and resolution mode. Our AI combines these using the Three-Layer Framework (Subject → Style/Mood → Technical Details) and appends the correct Midjourney parameters — including --hd for V8.x HD output — at the end of the prompt.
What are the Midjourney parameters (--ar, --s, --c, --no, --hd)?
--ar sets the aspect ratio (e.g., --ar 16:9). --s (stylize, 0-1000) controls how much artistic interpretation Midjourney applies. --c (chaos, 0-100) introduces variability in results. --no excludes specific elements (e.g., --no people, watermarks). --v sets the model version. --hd (V8, V8.1 and V8.2) outputs native 2048px HD without a separate upscale step. --tile makes a seamless repeating pattern, which blends without visible seams on V8.1 and V8.2.
Should I use HD (--hd) on V8.x?
V8.1 renders 2K HD natively, and on V8.1 HD mode is roughly 3× faster and 3× cheaper than it was on V8.0, so it's practical for everyday work. Use HD for final renders, print, and anything where fine detail and resolution matter; standard (SD) is 50% faster and 25% cheaper for quick drafts and exploration.
What's the difference between Midjourney V7, V8, V8.1 and V8.2?
V7 introduced personalization profiles and a warm aesthetic. V8 rebuilt the infrastructure with much better hands and anatomy but shipped a colder, flatter default look. V8.1 keeps V8's anatomy gains, restores V7's warmer character, adds native 2K HD, makes everything 4–5× faster, and brings back image prompts, image weights, and --p personalization. V8.2 (July 2026) is the current default: a bolder aesthetic, fewer low-quality results, and much better Personalization.
