You can put the type of clothing and colors in the prompt to "try" to keep it (sorta) consistent, but it's hit or miss. "red hat, blue hair, green pants", etc. I also copy paste the image into the prompt, then copy paste the prompt I used to create the image and that often gets me very close in terms of clothing. But again it's kinda hit or miss.

On the right click does it use the last created saved ID. Is it possible to set a particular one and swap when needed and then use the right click app method?

yeah i noticed that as well .. it does use the last id created .. but if you use /swapid then you can drag in the image to overwrite and then type in the id name you created as the overwrite ... /listid (will show ids you have) .... /delid (allows you to del ids no longer needed) and /swapid (allows you to swap on the fly)

I made some experiments on what would happen if you face shape a group of people in an image . results all of the faces will look like the face swap model . if you have a image of a man and a woman the you would have do a face swap for every face in the image and then photoshop each face on to one photo

I think this is a great video. So this is not a criticism. But Am I missing something? Isn't it easier and quicker just to write a prompt directly in MidJourney like '/imagine Elon Musk as a Nordic Warrior holding a Sword' and get the same kind of results, without having to do this face swap stuff?

@curtispyketech 11 ай бұрын

you raise a good point. The issue with this method is that MJ uses its idea of what Elon Musk is vs. this method uses a specific reference image. Both work, but this is a bit more specific I find. Also, if you want to swap your own face (or someone who is not a celebrity) this works pretty good :)

I would like to WARN everyone that MIDJOURNEY no longer has a trial version. Also if you SUSCRIBE your subscription may never be activated because the subscription section is run by volunteers. The subscription is for 1 YEAR even if it gives you the feeling that it is a monthly subscription - MISLEADING! And if you - like me - are trying to find out why the software is not working, a few hours you will find thousands of post with people with the same problem online, but no Customer Support because it's only available for MEMBERS!!!! So if your subscription after paying having been actives then you will never be able to let them know about!!! I just spent a whole working day trying to generate 1 single image . NEVER HAPPENED! The whole process left me exhausted mentally and anxious. Funny it's mental health week 😂. So only subscribe if you like like to bet.
