Thank You i had been struggling with Midjourney, I know, I know, but I’m 72…. I have watched so many videos BUT Yours was perfect for me. I actually created my first image 🤪Truly I am very grateful for your video. You selflessly share your hard earned knowledge with us challenged users! All God's blessings 🙏🏻
thank you
Sir, I am from myanmar .After watching this tutorial, I am very grateful for the midjourney. Thanks you 💛
Glad to hear that
This was fantastic! Very helpful! I am definitely subscribing to your channel for my business.
Just signed up this morning with help from your video and got started making some amazing things with the Midjourney AI, this is highly addictive!! 🤩
Great to hear!
You know how they say, "the neighbor's grass is always greener?" It always seems that everyone else gets such better results than I do!
I have exactly same feeling :(
Me three.
I know how you feel
It’s all about the prompts, look at the words used by the people whom art you like.
But y’all probably know that now.
Good day, and good luck.
When I see a great image I copy their prompts changing a few things but it works great.
Just a fantastic walk-through
Thank you
Insane program! Great video walk through sir. Jeez I didn’t know so involved to start creating through discord, strange way to access use of a program.
i did not like at first, but after using that way, i found it very convenient.
Thank you very much Vladimir.
thank you for your support!
Thank you very much for this. I wanted to know what I had to do, and you explained it brilliantly!
Thank you for your explanation of the use of this program .. you have described the program and processes very well .. and I so love your smiling zombie selfies
Glad it was helpful!
Super tutorial Vlad. I followed it and joined both discord and midjourney without any problems. Thank you.
Thank you!
very nice...i startes soft soft learning.thank you so much....
At 19:47 I see someone working on an airship, which was one of my first renders as well. Just from the similar word «airship» I see that his/her 4 renders are nearly identical to mine except for color tone and landscape style. The airship itself and angle appears nearly identical. So I suppose that over time you would be able to see a lot of the same building blocks in different artworks by different people.
It's all in the prompts you use, you can definitely start to see the cracks but you can get quite large variations by prompting keywords like the focal length, the location of the airship, the expanse of the landscape, etc etc to make things look significantly different and more unique.
I've noticed so many AI accounts on instagram and they all start looking the same.. boring.
@@danjones3009 that's because so many people copy the prompts of others and don't make a change at all.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. It was a very comprehensive and helpful video.
Amazing, covered everything a newbie needs to know to get started. Many thanks😊
thank you!
Best video I have seen explaining it perfectly
thank you!
You crushed it 🗝️
The quality of work is amazing. I'm almost afraid to use it. I have a UA-cam channel that focuses on obscure public domain superheroes...many of the characters I cover predate comic books and there are almost no images of the characters (they are text stories only)...I have to manufacture images (Sometimes I draw by hand, other times I use DAZ3D models)...Does MidJourney have the ability to program in a character template and then produce multiple images of a character in different settings/art styles?
Wonderful tutorial, thank you so much!
You're very welcome!
Thank you for this 😊👍I gotta say I hate the whole Discord sign in BS
Thank you for this video. It was very helpful!
thank you!
Much appreciation.
thank you
it's a magnificent thing Vlad has done with this tutorial
Thank you Vlad - so very helpful!
Thank you Vlad, great video. Question for you... I can upload my own image of photo as a staring point and do experiments and variations with it?
Excellent onboarding. Thx!
Thank you too!
thanks for sharing
thank you, you made it easy to understand.
Glad it helped!
What an angel! You save my broken head!
thank you
Excellent video with good explanations! Thanks.
You are welcome!
Thank you for this guide, very informative and easy to understand.
thank you!!!!

Thanks Vlad. Such an excellent overview of MidJourney. Let the fun begin. Just concerned about quickly using up my 15 hours of gpu time. Roughly how many images can you render in this time frame?
I use 15 just to upscale to Max. Let say I have 2 days left and 6 hours left, so need to burn thru them now ...
hello, thank you very much for this video. I discovered Mindjourney a few days ago and your advice is very welcome. Thanks again for explaining it to the newbees. Hello from France 🇫🇷
Very welcoming. Thank you.
Thank you too!
Thank you for putting this up. I love AI stuff.
Glad you enjoy it!
Really detailed video, so far the best I saw. Thanks Vlad. Everything is clearer now.
thank you
thank you brother
Welcome
Many thanks for the video, really useful and great tips!!
Thank you
Thank you!
Thanks for this. I joined the beta a few weeks ago and stopped at the list of rooms because I wasn't sure what to do next. I've never used Discord before.
That was really, really helpful. Thanks m8.
Glad it helped
thank u soo much it helped a lot
This was very informative, and I have a better understanding about Discord. I feel the price is a little steep though. $30 is the better deal, but this is so much fun I'm sure I could run through 15 hours I think you said in no time at all. I really do love this AI program. Very addictive. :)
Good to hear!
Thanks
Thank you for the detailed intro. It was very helpful.
I've learned more through your tutorial. Thanks Sir Vladimir ! God bless you!
thank you for the guide! I wonder which are the advantages if I'll take the 30$ subscription? I didn't have time yet to go in-depth with all the details about these subscriptions...
Top advantage of $30 subscription, it is /relax mode (unlimited requests). Because of this mode i created almost 11000 images with midjourney
Can I run it on my iPad? Can I post the result on an other app like Photoshop or Procreate?
Great video
TNice tutorials is really well done Mike, thanks for putting the ti and energy into tNice tutorials.
I tried to join your discord server but it said invalid link :( Great tutorial by the way, I'm learning so much
30:07 Why use a (period) "." versus a comma "," ?
Is there a difference?
Legend says he's still not back..
why?
I think only the US has ventured an opinion on copyright and there are still unsettled questions as far as i know. It is possible other jurisdictions will copy this as persuasive precedent but by no means certain. I would be taking legal advice on whether you could end up sued in another jurisdiction myself. Possible im just out of date. :-)
Which subscription I have to purchase 20 dollar or 30 dollar. Please give me the suggestion
Any tips getting portraits without wonky eyes/nose/lips?
i usually use: symmetrical, photorealistic, portrait
Thanks! Great info.
Glad it was helpful!
what is an image? if you start out with the $10. YOU GET 200 image.. is the 4 snow ball 1 image or is it 4? and if you U or V does that count as an image as well? and if you redo it does that count and another image?
it is saying images, but should tell requests. It is calculated how much GPU time it is take. Example: 30 4x4 samples = 25 upscales = 15 Max upscales = 10 Max upscales with quality 2. it is going from how much time it is take not how many images creating.
@@Geekatplay i see. i think
Thank you
You're welcome
Thank you for very informative video. Can we use it for commercial purpose? Like can we sell this image on our website?
Yes you can! As long you subscribing to the MidJourney service
What part of making a computer do all the work is art? Can any of You actually draw or paint something from your own imagination?
Art it is expression of your self. Words are expressions. Drawing is not only one type. What about theater, sculpture, they all difirent form of art. AI is only a tool in hand of creators. how you are using, it is up to you.
@@Geekatplay nonsense.
Expressing yourself with ai "art" is like winning a race in a self driving car
Can one create a storyboard with the same characters appearing on multiple screens?
Are you able to provide images for Mid Journey to reference?
I’m also wondering about this. I think I heard something about providing a reference image of your own, but now I can’t remember if it was for MidJourney or another AI art generator.
Good question. Put that question to any search engine and you will get the answer.
great video. but all that is useless, if i wanna use a picture comercially. for example as Cd cover for a single, i always have to pay 10$ for a lifetime if i wanna use it. i am not really making money from my music yet. i am not allowed to use it as cover with the free account right?
i think you previously mentioned that rendering can take some time. is there a way to have AI render in outline form or something
sort of like a rough draft to evaluate as a concept first
Midjourney have 3 (some 4) steps in outlining. First when you submit text, it is output (ver 1-2-3, not test) 4 thumbnails. this is your draft. Next you can do first upscale. and after Max upscale. with latest updates you can also reduce amount of details.
rding live soft in general... but none of them explained the sequencer, and how
I've always wondered about selling AI generated art and didn't know that was possible. I like the idea of selling book covers, Midjourney in particular would be great for that because it can create different aspect ratios. Dalle on the other hand I believe only does one. Not to mention Midjourney loves artwork!
For me personally I think it'd be nice to have more editing. I think majority of people can figure out how to register for accounts and whatnot so the video could be more condensed.
Otherwise I think you've done a great job. Thank you for the video.
Registered account with what services?
@@Geekatplay Discord and whatnot
I got to be honest with you. As an artist who has spent thousands of dollars trying to achieve a career in art whilst trying to freelance my art to support my health and finances. I cant help but to be pissed of by this comment. But whilst writing my angry response I decided to stop, breath, and relax for two seconds to try to be civil. So with that I want to ask a question? And no matter if I hate your answer or not, I promise I will not argue (hell I wont even respond if you don't want). I just simply want to know (and be honest) does the lives of traditional artists matter to you at all? I'm not being mean or asking in a stubborn tone. We have seen that AI Art can produce art way more quickly and quite frankly way more impressive than most if not all traditional and digital artists out there. What once was seen as a tool to craft further ideas seem to now only be used for monetary gain from people who otherwise haven't practiced art themselves. So as someone who needs to support their family and their health insurance. Does it seem fair that you can pose as an artist a sell what otherwise was created through the AI from a different development team. Keep in mind I actually don't mind the idea of people using AI art for themselves if they want to print it and put it up in their own homes or whatever. That way I look at AI art as a fun competition between man and machine. But misleading people by selling art to people who otherwise aren't aware of the technology existing just feels plain and simple wrong to me when there are so many people (not just me) that need to have those gigs in order to literally survive. So I pose the question one last time because I've had my two cents. Does anything that I stated or posed affect your decisions at all or does it not really feel like a bother. I'll keep my promise.
Thank You for reading.
Hey I had a question can I use these images for my UA-cam thumbnails or is that not allowed?
you can use images that you created for commercial work
Midjourney discord invite link is expired. Am I missing something?
how to upload a photo to AI? I tried with imgbb and "could not validate this link"
Pay with Paypal would be nice....midjourney is hype !!!
support paypal would be nice
Thanks a lot. This is amazing.
Is there any FREE service like MidJourney ? From my place it's not very easy to subscribe to services with foreign currency.
Thank you. You can try Disco Diffusion, it is completely free. Or try join Stable Diffusion, that is also free.
I have a question Vlad,
Do you think AI generated arts will kill human creativity and imaginary thinking in the near future? Just curious to know...
Dont think about it as replacement, think as additional tool. People was saying same about digital photography, cars, computers, photoshop ...etc. it is just software tool, that was written by human programmers.
both the GMS and softEX setup is very different from the one ur using.. why is it so.? GMS doesn't even soft like a app one... and the
If I pay for the service and create my own room, are my images still public? I would love to use it but simply testing out the program I already have people copying my ideas to make as their own. I would be willing to pay the $30 if my images will be my own.
you need pay additional $20 for privacy. It is free options there. Like stable Diffusion, you can run on your personal computer.
When I try to create by typing in /imagine and the I enter a prompt. The response to me, by the bot is : I have to accept the terms of service agreement . When I click on the link , there is nowhere to accept. I’ve tried many, many times and now I’m giving up.
check support channel in midjourney, they have step by step instruction. Also you can ask stuff there, to help resolved that issue.
anybody why when i loop a soft, at the end of my loop, my soft starts a half a soft early or late. makes it super frustrating
Is text command must be in english? I want to put specifically item that just in my local language
it is depend on model used. currently it is in english. but i saw some in another languages
Any idea why my gms softs different?
where do I download it
it is online servcie, if you want use local, check stable difusion
Can you pay for the $10 version, and add the $20 to make that private? Also, I didn't see in the subscription section the "private" option.
Is it hard sell these arts? Because spending 30$ month just for time pass i don't wanna do.
hi, can yo please tell me how i can upload a photo to make it in the style of van gogh drawings? des midjourney allow photos to be remade?
this is subject for my next video
can you add pictures like my old art?
yes
is it possible to generate 18+ content on payed plan?
they have a subscription
thank you for your support!
I want to use mid-journey on my own server. How do I do that?
Discord server or stand alone
@@Geekatplay discord server
Sir why it is written "this interaction failed"
in midjourney, type /prefer suffix - sometimes bot get some wierd out and it is helps reset settings.
Is it okay to share my midjourney AI art on Instagram during the trial period?
yes to share, no to sell
@@Geekatplay Thank you for the information
Hey Michael, thanks for tNice tutorials, I want to make a one off donation to you - give the details

Thank you for correcting. It may changed after they went public beta. Again, thank you for info.
can you add time stamp ?
i will try add toady
@@Geekatplay thankyou for your response
Does it work on discord mobile
yes, very well. I use all time
Midjourney ist one of the worst in user friendly AI but one of the best in Quality for Pictures. The upscaling is terrible. The hole GUI is terrible. But i made a few very nice pics, and was not able to create the same resolts in other AI.
it does have it is minuses, but it does have it is pluses
Invalid Discord Invite!
go to midjourney.com. they have direct link there
Yeah 9:15 I hate this Nonsense of Ai prompt apps
I still remember and that problem still exist and I regret to buy that bloody app for lifetime.
I was making fan art where I decided to make DC characters
for example I prompt
Headshot Portraite of Amber heard as Mera, Beautiful Red long hair, inside ocean, Dancing with Victory sign.
then 2nd prompt
Headshot portrait of margot robbie as Harley Quinn beautiful pink blue hair with baseball bat, laughing crazy, smirk
on these Prompt have you noticed any NSFW word? please notify me if you find any
but I was keep getting error and not allowing me to proceed. so after modifying prompt it turns out that Beautiful, Crazy, Smirk words that app do not like it.
Now if we decided to put feelings in visual then how is possible you can create visual which you want? and if these app so bloody restrictive then do you think we can create bloody any art? there many normal words these app don't take like Inside metro train Inside word offend app.
Fait toujours peur les yeux du portrait fait par l'IA.
for example I want anime live action
Saeee hahahah, you just have to play with the daw and you gaing experience slowly
