Maybe the Bing results better fit the prompt, but I like the Midjourney images much more.

Playing with some of your prompt details. First making the cat realistic, then I tried putting it in free fall on the ISS. Didn’t get any particularly good images fitting that but it did toss out an image of the cat in space that I liked (and expanded).

This is pretty good, too.

I tweaked my prompt a bit to capture an R. Crumb [Keep on Truckin’](https://e9i3r2v2.stackpathcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/keep-on-truckin.jpg) vibe, with exaggerated perspective. Again, Bing was more faithful to the prompt, though I do like the MJ style.

Curiously, Midjourney couldn’t make an axe until v4 and they’re still often kind of weird. Not sure what it is about axes. I wasn’t able to generate a head without the shaft/handle either.

Ugh, Bing Image Creator has been down all morning. “We can’t create right now!” I was just having fun with “selfie at the crucifixion” prompts last night.

Are you guys still using Bing? You might want to try [copilot.microsoft.com](http://copilot.microsoft.com) It’s Bing with a better interface, plus plugins. I don’t think there would be any difference in the image generation.

copilot is also broken this morning. You can make thumbnails but can’t view your image.

And I don’t see how the interface is better? There’s a text box, you write a prompt. Same same.

Oh, and I just got " Sorry, this conversation has reached its limit. Use the “broom” button to sweep this away and chat more"

There’s no broom button I can find.

And jeez, if I tell it “create an image of \<whatever\>” it tells me,

And repeats back my description. _Then_ proceeds to create my image. As thumbnails only, if you click on one it breaks. This sucks.

Two experiments with text.

Some of the prompt leaked into the text, so I simplified.

I was playing around with Cthulhu chasing a cat in a fish market (as posted in the AI Lego thread) and tried mixing in elements from a completely different prompt I was working on. I stumbled onto a prompt that makes great signs.

Here are some from the first joining.

[![](https://i.postimg.cc/1RrTWKND/signs-sample-fish-grid.jpg) ](https://i.postimg.cc/1RrTWKND/signs-sample-fish-grid.jpg)

And with the subject matter and text changed.

[![](https://i.postimg.cc/3xczXJ06/signs-sample-dope-grid.jpg) ](https://i.postimg.cc/3xczXJ06/signs-sample-dope-grid.jpg)

The rearranged wording was deliberate.

[![](https://i.postimg.cc/XqbRrHBY/signs-sample-goat-grid.jpg) ](https://i.postimg.cc/XqbRrHBY/signs-sample-goat-grid.jpg)

And here is an attempt for a Facebook group. I could _not_ get it to spell “Wholesome AI”, and the gun is supposed to be an Uzi. But I especially love the kitten standing on the sign.

[![](https://i.postimg.cc/y88zhbQJ/signs-sample-wholesome-grid.jpg) ](https://i.postimg.cc/y88zhbQJ/signs-sample-wholesome-grid.jpg)

The prompt is

glamorous professional studio portrait photo of a goat with a tin in its mouth with foreshortening and exaggerated perspective. A sign made out of crumbling decayed driftwood planks has “Straight Goat Dope Farm” woodburned into it.

(Incidentally, for anyone on Facebook, there are lots of AI groups now, some with over 100,000 members. [Wholesome AI](https://m.facebook.com/groups/952043746105556/) is a private group that is a few months old and is curated for SFW images and has only just passed 600 members. It is a comfy group with quality posts, and the moderator recently suggested that we recruit for new members, if anyone is interested.)

Perhaps you could try other forest fire representatives.

_”In England, [Smokey the Bear](https://viraltrend24.com/mitch-hedbergs-best-jokes-and-quotes-will-have-you-laughing/) is not the forest fire prevention representative. They have Smacky the Frog. It’s a lot like a bear, but it’s a frog. I think that’s a better system. I think we should adopt it. Because bears can be mean, but frogs are always cool. Never has there been a frog hopping toward me, and I thought ‘Man, I’d better play dead. Here comes that frog.’ I would never say “Here comes that frog” in a horrifying manner. It’s always, like, optimistic. Like, ‘Hey, here comes that frog, all right. Maybe he will settle near me and I can pet him, and put him in a mayonnaise jar, with a stick and a leaf, to recreate what he’s used to.”_ - Mitch Hedberg
