How DreamUp Works

Describe Your Idea

Begin by entering a prompt describing the image you want to create. The more detailed and specific your description, the more accurate the result. You can also fine-tune your prompt using optional settings such as aspect ratio, prompt strength, or negative prompts to control undesired elements.

Choose a Style

DreamUp offers multiple visual styles including anime, fantasy, cinematic, clay, origami, pixel art, 3D models, low-poly, and more. You can select a style that aligns with your vision before generating the image.

Generate and Select

Each prompt can produce up to four image variations. Choose the one that best fits your vision, refine further if needed, or share it directly on DeviantArt.
