I have not decided on Midjourney yet (lots of choices). I have an image in another program that does not allow you to see the seeds or any address so, if I have Midjourney, I did not use a name and the prompt is specific but not with the details I want now (I made it in my early days on AI). I have one image that has two characters that I want to use more than any other image I have created. What do you advise if I want to change the backgrounds and can Midjourney change the stance of characters or do you have to start from scratch and try to get something similar but with names and character poses etc..? I am a nurse so, my tech skills are rusty and I am really at the beginning (maybe dabbled for a few months randomly here and there for an hour or two a week (if that).

Good question! Not sure but we'll see if we can find out from their Discord server.

The thing that we need is pretty simple 1) Any image of an individual changed to reflect the MJ model. So that way you can pose and have whatever camera angle reflected in the final image. MJ is largely useless without it. 2) We need to be able to set a stage using collage or 3D assets or actual pictures and have MJ reflect that in the final image. Ai has a long, long way to go.
