Pro Tips for Realistic Festive Generations

Get cleaner hands, natural skin tones, and rich silk textures by following these field-tested prompt guidelines.

Use Sharp, Unobstructed Reference Photos

When using reference-photo workflows (like Midjourney --cref or FLUX), upload a photo where your face is evenly lit with no heavy shadows, sunglasses, or hands covering the jawline.

Use Specific Indian Handloom & Textile Terms

Generic words like "Indian dress" produce generic synthetic patterns. Use precise textile descriptors: "Banarasi silk with gold zari border", "Chanderi cotton-silk kurta", "zardozi embroidery", or "raw silk Nehru jacket".

Tune Character Weight (--cw 20 in Midjourney)

In Midjourney, the default `--cw 100` attempts to copy your reference photo’s clothing too. Set `--cw 20` or `--cw 0` so the model keeps only your face while seamlessly replacing your casual t-shirt with festive silk attire.

For Greeting Cards: Crisp AI Text vs Canva Overlays

Our card prompts generate centered "Happy Diwali" gold typography by default. For best in-image text spelling, use ChatGPT or Gemini. If you want to overlay your family name in Canva or Photoshop, select "Text-Free Blank Canvas" in the builder.

Preventing Fused Faces in Multi-Person & Family Photos

AI models often blend faces together when generating groups. Explicitly describe each person’s distinct generation, age, and outfit color (e.g., "Grandmother in beige saree, young grandson in yellow kurta") to help the model maintain separate characters.

Aspect Ratios Matter for Quality

Use 4:5 or 9:16 for portraits to provide vertical space for elaborate lehengas and tall turbans/gajras. Use 16:9 for sweeping dining table celebrations and wide panoramic rangolis.
