Tips for using the online AI image generator.

The best tattoo designs start with a strong concept. Whether designing for yourself or collaborating with an artist, a little clarity can go a long way. Use these tips to spark ideas, guide the AI tattoo generator, and get results you’ll love.

Start with a simple prompt.

Start with a simple 4-5 word phrase, such as ‘raining soccer balls in the desert.’ Then experiment with different words to see what else Text to Image can create for you. For the best results, be as descriptive as possible. Use simple text prompts and iterate.

Upload reference images or shapes.

Upload an image whose style you want to replicate, for example, create a white 3D sphere on a blue background. Then build on that structure to generate similar shapes like basketballs, soccer balls or anything round you can imagine.

Create in stages.

Use generative AI whenever you're inspired to create images, then reuse the images as style reference later. For example, create underwater macro photo of colorful blobs, then reuse these same images to generate more.

FAQs about AI tattoo generator.

What is text to image in AI?

How does text to image work?

Text to image AI generators work like other types of artificial intelligence, using machine learning models and huge datasets to produce their results. In other words, the AI technology learns from thousands and thousands of pictures. It creates brand-new images by applying what it has learned to the everyday language you enter in the prompt field. The current Firefly generative AI model is trained on a dataset of Adobe Stock, along with openly licensed work and public domain content where copyright has expired.
