- In this video I show you the power of the --seed parameter in Midjourney. You have so much more freedom when you --seed (#) somewhere in your prompt.

I love how you never actually say how to get the seed
🤣🤣🤣 I came here for that b/c I can copy, but it pastes nothing
React with the "Envelope" emoji to get info on the image and the resultant seed
in order to make four images completely different, type --chaos 100
or
--c 100
values 1 to 100
mean 1 is for 4 very similar images
100 is for 4 completely different ones
Love using the seed number after I've upscaled, to create images from the same starting point. You can do this by reacting with an envelope emoji on an image you upscale - then use the prompt with that seed number (e.g. --seed 123456) and you'll get similar results to the image you originally upscaled. Let me know if this helps!
Thanks for the tip!
that was helpful ty!
Awesomeness 👍
i dont see any different when i react with envelope emoji... -_-"a helpp
@@Yabin8 Are you using MJ bot in your own server? It should DM you. If you're in a channel, it should appear as a message with you tagged. Also, are you reacting to an image you've upscaled?
First time discovering and learning from you! This is great!! I have to give this a try; I have subbed 😀
You are awesome Gilbatree.
Doesn't work for me, i can input the exact same prompt and seed number, it generates different images every time in different poses as though you've started /imagine from scratch. Puzzling.
Great work as always, your videos have helped me a lot in my midjourney journey =D but got a question for you. what do you think of sports prompts? I seem to always get some weird not real stuff. Thanks and keep the good work ;)
where do I get this "number"? --seed??
How can I assign a seed number to an uploaded image in Midjourney, for example to keep the same face. I was only able to assign a seed number to an image generated by Midjourney but to an uploaded image.
Great tips 🎉
Excellent info. Is there a way to keep the same generated character, but put that character in completely different situations?
Is anyone else having problems getting the seed in v5? It'll say fetching seed number and... nothing
so how do you get the seed number, you didn't say
How many seeds exist per image?
Do you know why V5 doesn’t give us the seed number? I’ve tried all the methods and they don’t work anymore :/
That's hard out g
where do you get the seed number from?
I'd give my right arm if I could use my own uploaded source image as the seed.
@Glibatree Do you know how the seed works in new version 5? it doesnt give you the seed when clicking on the envelop.
AWESOME VIDEO!
2:26 /imagine a photo of all intensive porpoises --seed 1
Thanks for this! I’m still confused about when and why you would use a seed number as opposed to an image reference url, how exactly those each impact the outcome. ELI5?
Image reference URLs are their own beast, tbh. You use them when you want certain traits from an image to appear in your prompt. In the pipeline, I have a while video about these and it's surprisingly complex.
On the other hand, seed is really for limiting randomness - and to help you predict and understand the impact of changing your prompt.
Thanks for the reply! So where you can’t exactly pick which traits you’d like to be consistent with an image url, do you usually just stick with seeds when you’re refining an image? (Just having the seed control for randomness like you said) I’ve been using multiple image urls to try to get a consistent character, but it still doesn’t do a great job at all. Though seeds haven’t been much better 🤷♀️
@@tsamb3756 Exactly yes. You will have a much easier time controlling the traits of your character by setting the seed and using text. (Though keep in mind, aspects of your character will still change if you change too much about the scene)
Probably the key for consistent characters is some combination.
Awesome, thanks for the tips! I’ve been enjoying your videos 🙏
Seed number?? 😢
Prompt enginner :D
ha,ha! prompt engineer! is that a joke, hope you are not serious....I'm an engineer and writting prompts does not make an engineer.
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.
2 questions:
- How to get the seed number?
- How to upload my own image as starting seed?
I agree. This is the second video I've seen from him where a cool concept is presented but the actual how is only hinted at.
React with the "Envelope" emoji to get info on the image and the resultant seed
@@MenOfCultureFun where is the envelope? cant find this anywher
Ive found it via your Midjourney Gallery, which is on the website. When you find the image you want, i look for the three dots drop down. There is the seed #
I don't understand... Either you weren't good at explain it, or I lack comprehension ability. :(
A new video for v5 would be nice, you have been so helpful in our learning!
Thank you for this awesome tutorial!! 👍But why do you hate the 4th attempt of the train prompt? 0:47. Personally I like it quite as well as the first ones. It might be because you are viewing it from a different picture angle?.. Also, I am wondering why people still keep writing the (--v 4), where it is already set by Midjourney by Default. it will not change the version unless you choose lower versions below v4. Now version 5 has arrived. You forgot to explain from where and How are we going to find that Seed Number?
Helo!!! This tip is incredible!! But which is the number of each image??? I can't figura out that!!! Can you help me please??? So i could write --seed (and the number of my image that i don't know where is it!!!!) HELP! Thank you!!!!
honestly great video format , i love the edits that display the changed parameter and immediately show the effect afterwards. Really helpful for someone learning to shape their midjourney outcomes.
Appreciate it!
Is there any way to reference a scene instead of a character? --sref just copies the style. What if i want variations of the same scenery? Like my house for example, same house but maybe it looks older.
I don't get it because the image itself has a seed number but it feels like you guys are just picking random numbers. What's the rhyme or reason?
Can this be done on an upscale image (didnt see in the vid)? This looks POWerful and can’t believe I haven’t used or known before
i have an image.Great result ,added seed, created another object with the seed,different result, Why????
I don't understand what a seed # of 1 does opposed to some random number like 194568
am I the only one who doesn't understand how to use this function
where does the seed number come from??
Apparently you choose the number. It works like programming parameters, where you will tell midjourney through the seed number where it should refer to. So for example if you put "--seed 1" and generate 4 images, and then tell the prompt again to generate another image using "-seed 1" it will use the first result as an parameter of what it should do. You're basically telling midjourney you want to generate 4 new images using the same style of the first one, which will give you similar results to your first prompt, but will adapt to your new commands. I hope I managed to explain it clearly.
whatever. --seed 1236756 ( did you just make that number up or did it come from an image ??? extremely confusing I must say.)
I'm trying to figure that out too.
In MidJ, scroll over your image & you'll see 3 dots next to a magnifying glass. Click the 3 dots; click "copy"; click "seed"
That's as far as I can get b/c it doesn't paste anything. IDK
I have watched your video twice. As far as I can see you never showed us where to access the envelope emoji. I have looked all over the Internet trying to find the answer. Can you tell me how to access the envelope in mid journey
docs.midjourney.com/docs/en/discord-emoji-reactions this should help :)
There is nothing to click on my screen to react to an image.
How do we know what seed number the image is did I miss something

Thank you so much for sharing this.. the seed parameter has changed my whole flow, and has made midjourney an actual usable tool for creating new works.. I do enjoy a bit of random elements in my work, but I do not want the entire piece to be completely random, the seed parameter has allowed me to work with a single image and begin to manipulate it in different ways, which also has helped hone my prompt skills and there effects on the various modelsm. Previously I did not know what effect a single change was having on the image as a different seed can literally change everything about the image notably composition and style choices, elements you may be thinking you are changing with your word choices.. so thank you again for making this so incredibly clear for everyone that is exploring midjourney... For anyone reading this who hasn't explored the --seed function give it a try.. and experiment with your phrases.. I literally use this now in 98% of my generations now.. a must have for me
I didn't understand how to use it
Where do we find this seed number?
seed returns as an error...
Where do you get the seed number…? Sorry if it’s a dumb question but I didn’t hear how to determine the seed number. Saw an example of 123456 …?
Can’t see a single other person asking or answering this. Makes me wonder if people actually use the software or just imagine themselves doing so while watching UA-cam videos about it.
Apparently you choose the number. It works like programming parameters, where you will tell midjourney through the seed number where it should refer to. So for example if you put "--seed 1" and generate 4 images, and then tell the prompt again to generate another image using "-seed 1" it will use the first result as an parameter of what it should do. You're basically telling midjourney you want to generate 4 new images using the same style of the first one, which will give you similar results to your first prompt, but will adapt to your new commands.

What about sameseed?
Where do you get the seed number from?
im an engineer now
better prompt engineer :D

Okay mate you just failed to show how to use thst parameter. But good expalanition about what it is about. Now I need to see how to apply it
i don't know if it's just a.i. messing with me, but the majority of the images Midjourney creates have weird random flaws. /imagine a cute happy corgi on a beach with pink sunglasses, tropical drink , palm tree, etc......results: 1. a corgi with no sunglasses. 2. tropical drink's straw is spliced and part of it is floating in the air. 3 tropical drink has oranges, and corgi has an orange oddly melting off it's ear. And after two hours of messing and tweaking with this...I grew tired.
I used Dalle for awhile and gave up, because images constantly were degraded and dumbed down...almost like the a.i. creates one decent image and purposefully creates 3 bad images. It works hard on one, and phones in its performance on the other 3 images, knowing u will most likely select the best composition...if you have a brain in your head.
best video eVERRRR
How to use seed ?
Just my opinion, once you changed your prompt or parameter, the seed pool also changed, it's the same seed number, but not from the same seed pool.
2:16
Sorry but I totally disagree as there is no consistent images even if you include the seed. Cartoon characters created are widely different.
Two points that are critical: 1. You can only use seed values from initial prompt results, not upscales - which to me makes it pretty redundant as it is not taking cues from a singular image, which is what we want. 2. Seed values can of course direct the flow of image creation, but what this video does not mention, is that your base style setting determines ALL results. If you're using 5.1, and you use a seed value, you will get wildly different results if your base style values are set to either low (0.5) base/medium (1) high (1.5) or very high (2). Put simply, seed values only really work in any predictable way, if you have your base style setting fixed at low or base. Any higher and Midjourney will do whatever the hell it wants. I'll be honest, it is the most brilliant and most teeth pulling infuriating bit of software I've ever used, and I've been using the most inane teeth pulling code driven software professionally for over three decades.
Nice and interesting
Those set earlier in the day/prefer option set option: Now it's all starting to tip:Custom image weights are not compatible with --version 5
Great video of this concept. Thank you!
interesting information, i just have one question: if you start a new project, but you use again a seed number that you used before, what happens? thanks!
Dude! Good video. Walked me through step by step to help me understand the value in doing the seed thing. This was exactly what I needed without having to sort through multiple 10-30 min videos to figure this out haha and didn't even tell me to sub...
Thank you!!!
Are you aware of any promts that will create a background only? Something like an Arch with mossy stones but the center is blank?
So clear and helpful. Thank you. 🙏🏼xx
Really great video man, You have a special way of communicating clearly the most relevant points. Seeing the prompts while you speak really hits it home. I feel like I only really understood this seed parameter now. Thank you.
Relevant except for how to actually find the seed.
Can you use seed to correct images, like deformed hands for example
hey there, nice video as always! Was wondering if you know a way to have the generated character in a image to be positioned either left or right and maybe zoomed out so it doesn't take the full space... Thanks mate and keep these videos coming!
Yeah but how do you use it? Do you assign a numer to a prompt or to an image or to what?
Natural, logical solution. Everyone will figure it out sooner or later.
this is genius wow prompt engineering is no joke there's quite a bit u have to know
Thank you!!!!
thanks man, never heard of this.
You explain very thoroughly, very very helpful.
😂 you were funny cos I can totally relate!
Thanks for the video. How did you generate the video images that appear at 1:11?
Older Midjourney Version's had access to "--video" which created animations during the generation process.
Brilliant video, thanks!
Hey Glibatree, I appreciate your efforts and your tips!
Nontheless, as far as I can see I am not the only one who is struggling with understanding your explanation of the seed's implementation into the prompts. Is there any chance you can break it down in a more digestable way mate? :)
Thanks in advance!
For nubes you should include how the heck to get the seed number!
In v5 I can’t seems to get the seed for an image I already generated. Even after I reacted with an envelope like normal, the bot never pings me with the seed
@@lordforex for me its working, dont do it with a single image, you have to react to the group of 4. I dont think you cant get a seed for a single image hmm....
Beautifully demonstrated!
Fantastic tip. Thankyou!
Great content! I love how you actually teach. I'm having trouble getting started on MidJourney, would you consider doing a noobie tutorial where you take a concept from beginning to end including the prompt creating into Chatgpt? That would be wonderful, ty for your consideration.
Your video's are the best
Thank you very much!
wait, why do you get a remix prompt when clicking on a variation? i dont get any pompt it just creates more or less 4 times more the same image ;(
Remix mode needs to be on in settings. Type /settings to the bot and you can select it
@@glibatree uh, thanks mate
great one
sneed
Thank you!
Another great done 👌
Helpful!
You can also lock in a style with more elaborate detailed prompts. No need for --seed. If your prompts are just a lazy couple of words, it's going to be random each time because you are leaving more room for MJ to fill in the blanks.
I would suggest you set a prefer option to short cut..that way you can regenerate easily. I start out a base picture..upscale like or hate right click dm grab seed and no over and over till I get to where I want
I do not understand how or why in this video the sentence "you create art work" is In any way shape or form true..hey you want to use ai go ahead but don't pretend that the user of a program like midjourney is creating anything even remotely close to art. Or creating anything.. AI is producing images not the user..
prompt engineer?? hahaha are ppl now making madeup work titels out of this type of hobby?
