If you go to /settings and turn on Remix, when you do variations, it gives you the option to change the prompt. It is faster than starting over and you won't get random images.

Thanks... I may have to try the mobile phone thing like you did

Glad you are trying midjourney but now you have to go deeper lol. Just like Leonardo has different models midjourney does as well. for Tshirts I still like v4's style and aesthetics. You could try a prompt comparison between the different versions. That's what I do with permutations if you are on the $10 plan I cant remember if the permutations feature is included but what you can do to try all the different versions is at the end of each prompt you would type one of these. --v 4, --v 5, --v 5.1, --v 5.1 style raw, --niji, --niji --style cute, --niji --style expressive, --niji --style scenic (niji is the anime model) - I would also include "isolate on white background" at the end of your prompt as I have found it easier to remove the background when its all white. Midjourney's way of negative prompting is to type --no (followed by what ever you want the ai to try to exclude) for Tshirt designs I use "--no tshirt product shot, text, quotation, title" the negative prompting was mainly for v4 as each version acts different and you may not need it for 5 and up. Another thing I would recommend is as a member you can DM the midjourney bot directly or if you have your own discord you can add it to your server. That way you don't get lost in the mix of the newbie or general channels and its easier to go back and review your renders. There is a lot with midjourney, they have Chaos (--c 1-100) , stylize (--s 1-1000), multi weighted prompts (worked best in v4 from what I have seen) I made an image jam on the midjourney discord for Merch T-shirts etc (discord.com/channels/662267976984297473/1043687959477620786) and then i have my own discord so us Merchers had a place to bounce ideas and ask questions to each other.

Hey Juna! You have a great teaching style! I heard that some of the artworks generated by AI apps have copyright issues.

Great video, Juna! I'm eager to see how well each of your designs sell. A couple thoughts: I think a caption/text would help each design sell. (You're the expert, and I'm sure you've thought about that!) Also, Midjourney is changing regularly, and the option to create more variations is improving, so I think with a couple more remixes of each variation, you could get closer to what you ideally want from each image. I use Midjourney a ton, so I'm biased here! Thanks, as always!
