↕️ Top-Bottom

Best for vertical images and mobile viewing

  • Portrait photos (height > width)
  • Instagram Stories (1080×1920)
  • Pinterest Pins (1000×1500)
  • Mobile scrolling

✅ Layout Decision Guide:

Add AI Prompt Text Overlay (Optional)

Showcase your creative process for AI-generated images

When to Add AI Prompts:

✅ Use AI Prompt Overlay For:

DALL-E Example:
A futuristic cyberpunk cityscape at night, neon lights reflecting on wet streets, flying cars, photorealistic, cinematic lighting

Before: "a cat"
After: "a majestic persian cat, professional photography, 8k --v 6"

💡 Pro Tips for Better Comparisons

🎯 For Best Quality Results

  • Use identical dimensions: Crop both images to same size before uploading
  • Use PNG format: Best quality, no compression artifacts
  • High resolution: At least 1080px on shortest side for social media
  • Check quality score: Aim for 90%+ before downloading

⚡ For Faster Workflow

  • Keyboard shortcuts: Ctrl+Enter to generate, Ctrl+V to paste images
  • Drag & drop: Faster than clicking to browse files
  • Use Reset button: Quickly clear and start new comparison (remembers your settings)
  • Batch workflow: Prepare all images first, then create comparisons one by one

📱 For Maximum Engagement

  • Add AI prompts: Increases engagement by 30-50% on AI art posts
  • Use platform presets: Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest - no cropping needed
  • Post timing: Tuesday-Friday 11am-1pm and 7pm-9pm perform best
  • Use hashtags: #beforeandafter #transformation #AIart #midjourney (see FAQ for more)

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

❌ Using very different image sizes

This causes blurriness and low quality score. Solution: Crop both images to identical dimensions before uploading.

❌ Forgetting to remove watermark

Watermark is optional and ON by default. Solution: Uncheck "Show watermark" in advanced options before generating.

❌ Choosing wrong layout for platform

Vertical images need top-bottom layout for Instagram Stories/Pinterest. Solution: Follow our layout guide in Step 2.

❌ Not downloading before closing page

Images are processed locally - we can't recover them after page close. Solution: Download immediately after generating.
