5-Step Quick Start: Your First Professional Image
Step 1: Choose Your Use Case
Before writing a prompt, decide what you're creating. This determines the right features and prompt structure.
Common beginner use cases:
- Marketing ad creative: Product photo with lifestyle background
- Social media post: Eye-catching graphic with text overlay
- Profile picture: Professional headshot or avatar
- Concept mockup: Visualization of an idea or product
Example: Creating a marketing ad for a coffee shop
We'll generate a cozy coffee shop interior with a latte in focus—perfect for Instagram marketing.
Step 2: Write Your First Prompt
GemPix 2 prompts follow a simple structure:
[Subject] + [Style] + [Details] + [Composition]
Bad prompt (too vague): ❌ "Coffee shop"
Good prompt (specific and structured): ✅ "Cozy coffee shop interior with a latte art heart in focus on wooden table, warm morning lighting, modern minimalist style, shallow depth of field, professional photography"
Prompt anatomy breakdown:
- Subject: "Cozy coffee shop interior with latte art heart"
- Style: "Modern minimalist style, professional photography"
- Details: "Wooden table, warm morning lighting"
- Composition: "Latte in focus, shallow depth of field"
Common prompt modifiers that improve quality:
- Lighting: "golden hour," "soft studio lighting," "dramatic shadows"
- Camera: "shallow depth of field," "wide angle," "close-up macro"
- Style: "professional photography," "cinematic," "minimalist"
- Mood: "warm and inviting," "modern and sleek," "vintage nostalgic"
Enter your prompt in the Generation Canvas text box.
Step 3: Select Resolution and Features
For your first generation, use these settings:
- Resolution: 1024x1024 (balance of quality and speed)
- Features: None (start simple)
- Quality Mode: Standard (faster, costs fewer credits)
Click "Generate" and wait 2-3 seconds.
Understanding quality modes:
- Standard: 2.3 seconds average, 2-3 credits, good for iteration
- High Quality: 5-8 seconds, 5-8 credits, best for final deliverables
- Ultra (4K): 15-20 seconds, 12-15 credits, print and large displays
When to enable features:
- [[features/character-consistency]]: When you need the same person/mascot across multiple images
- [[features/conversational-editing]]: When refining an existing generation
- [[features/multi-image-fusion]]: When combining multiple source images
- [[features/precise-local-edits]]: When making surgical changes to specific areas
Most professionals generate with Standard quality first, refine conversationally, then regenerate the final version in High Quality or Ultra.
Step 4: Evaluate and Refine
Your image appears in the canvas. Evaluate it:
Questions to ask:
- Is the subject clear and in focus?
- Does the composition match your vision?
- Are colors and lighting correct?
- Are there any obvious artifacts or errors?
If you're 70%+ satisfied: Use [[features/conversational-editing]] to refine
- "Make the lighting warmer"
- "Zoom in closer on the latte"
- "Change background to darker wood"
If you're <70% satisfied: Regenerate with an improved prompt
- Add more specific details
- Adjust style modifiers
- Change composition instructions
Example refinement conversation:
- Initial generation: Good composition, but lighting too cool
- Edit: "Make the lighting warmer and add more golden tones"
- Result: Perfect warm morning atmosphere
Each conversational edit costs 1-3 credits vs 2-5 credits for full regeneration—70% cost savings.
Step 5: Download and Use Your Image
Once satisfied, click "Download" and select your preferred format:
Download formats:
- PNG: Highest quality, supports transparency, larger file size (recommended for design)
- JPG: Compressed, smaller file size, no transparency (recommended for web)
- WebP: Modern format, smaller than JPG, great quality (recommended for websites)
Resolution options at download:
- Original generated resolution (e.g., 1024x1024)
- Upscaled 2x (e.g., 2048x2048) - adds 2 credits
- Upscaled 4x (e.g., 4096x4096) - adds 5 credits
Pro tip: Download originals first, then selectively upscale only the final assets you'll use in production. This saves credits and storage space.
Your first professional image is complete! Now let's explore core features.
Understanding Core Features
Character Consistency: The Same Subject Across Multiple Images
What it does: Maintains 95%+ consistency of a person, mascot, or character across unlimited generations.
When to use:
- Brand mascots appearing across marketing campaigns
- Comic or storyboard creation with recurring characters
- Product spokesperson in multiple scenarios
- Sequential art requiring consistent subjects
Quick start workflow:
- Generate or upload a reference image of your character
- Enable "Character Consistency" in Feature Panel
- Select your reference image
- Generate new images—the character remains identical
Example prompt with character consistency enabled: "Same character sitting in a coffee shop, holding a laptop, casual attire, warm lighting"
The AI preserves facial features, body proportions, style, and identity while changing the scene, pose, and context.
Learn advanced techniques in our [[features/character-consistency]] deep dive.
Conversational Editing: Refine Without Regenerating
What it does: Modify existing images through natural language instead of starting over.
When to use:
- Making small adjustments to nearly-perfect images
- A/B testing specific variables (button color, background, lighting)
- Client feedback loops requiring rapid iteration
- Exploring variations systematically
Quick start workflow:
- Generate your base image
- Click "Edit Conversationally" button
- Type specific changes: "Change sky to sunset colors"
- Review result and continue editing or download
Example conversation:
- Initial: Professional headshot with blue background
- Edit 1: "Change background to office interior"
- Edit 2: "Make subject's expression more cheerful"
- Edit 3: "Add glasses"
- Result: Perfect customized headshot in 3 edits vs 10+ regenerations
Conversational editing reduces production time by 80% and costs 70% fewer credits than regeneration workflows.
Explore advanced iteration patterns in our [[features/conversational-editing]] guide.
Multi-Image Fusion: Combine Multiple Sources
What it does: Intelligently combines elements from multiple images into a single coherent composition.
When to use:
- Placing products into lifestyle scenes
- Creating composite marketing images
- Combining real photos with AI-generated elements
- Building complex scenes from simple components
Quick start workflow:
- Upload or generate 2-4 source images
- Enable "Multi-Image Fusion" in Feature Panel
- Select which images to combine
- Add prompt describing desired composition
- Generate—AI blends elements naturally
Example use case:
- Image 1: Your product (real photo)
- Image 2: AI-generated lifestyle background (modern kitchen)
- Fusion prompt: "Product placed on kitchen counter, natural lighting, lifestyle photography"
- Result: Product seamlessly integrated into the scene
This feature replaces hours of Photoshop compositing work with a 30-second generation.
Learn professional compositing workflows in our [[features/multi-image-fusion]] documentation.
Precise Local Edits: Surgical Adjustments
What it does: Make targeted changes to specific regions without affecting the rest of the image.
When to use:
- Fixing small artifacts or errors
- Changing specific objects or text
- Adjusting isolated regions (face, background, product)
- Final polish after broader edits
Quick start workflow:
- Select your image
- Enable "Local Edit" mode
- Draw selection around target area
- Describe change: "Change shirt color to red"
- Generate—only selected area updates
Example applications:
- Remove unwanted background objects
- Change text on signs or products
- Adjust facial expressions
- Modify product colors or features
Precision editing ensures you don't lose progress when fixing small issues.

Common Beginner Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
Mistake #1: Overly Vague Prompts
Problem: "A person at a beach"
Why it fails: AI has infinite interpretations—man/woman, child/adult, sunrise/sunset, tropical/temperate, close-up/wide shot. You'll get random results.
Solution: Be specific about all key elements ✅ "Young woman in summer dress walking on tropical beach at sunset, golden hour lighting, professional lifestyle photography, relaxed expression"
Mistake #2: Regenerating Instead of Editing
Problem: Image is 85% perfect but sky color is wrong. Regenerating entire image.
Why it fails: You lose the 85% that was correct. New generation might fix the sky but break composition, lighting, or subject.
Solution: Use conversational editing for refinement ✅ "Change sky color from blue to warm sunset orange"
Cost comparison:
- Regeneration: 5 credits + risk of worse result
- Conversational edit: 2 credits + preserves what works
Mistake #3: Ignoring Resolution Until Final
Problem: Iterate 10 times at 1024x1024, then try to upscale final result to 4K.
Why it fails: Upscaling adds artifacts. Quality degrades. You should generate at target resolution from the start or regenerate the final at higher resolution.
Solution: Iterate at 1024x1024, then regenerate the perfect version at your target resolution using the same prompt.
Workflow:
- Test and refine at 1024x1024 (fast, cheap)
- Once perfect, regenerate same prompt at 2048x2048 or 4096x4096
- Apply any final conversational edits at high resolution
Mistake #4: Not Using Character Consistency for Series
Problem: Generating 20 images of "the same" mascot without character consistency enabled.
Why it fails: Each generation produces a completely different character. You waste 100+ credits regenerating trying to match.
Solution: Enable character consistency from the start
- Generate or upload reference image
- Enable character consistency
- All subsequent generations maintain 95%+ identity match
Mistake #5: Skipping Prompt Templates
Problem: Writing every prompt from scratch, struggling with structure.
Why it fails: Inefficient and inconsistent results. You rediscover effective patterns each time.
Solution: Use proven prompt templates from [[resources/prompt-library]]
Starter templates:
- Product photography: "[Product] on [surface], [lighting], [style], professional product photography"
- Portrait: "[Person type] portrait, [expression], [clothing], [background], [lighting style]"
- Scene: "[Location] scene, [time of day], [weather], [mood], [style], cinematic composition"
- Marketing: "[Subject] in [context], [brand mood], lifestyle photography, [composition]"
Copy templates, customize variables, generate instantly.
