Then, type “/imagine” in the chat box, select the “/imagine” option from the menu, and hit the “Enter” key:

Next, provide the desired description of the image. Go through the following use cases to see how the Niji 5 Model works with different style parameters:

Case 1: Default Style (Without Any Parameter)

In the first case, input a desired prompt without any parameter with the “/imagine” command. For instance, we have provided the following prompt:

a beautiful cute ginger girl, wearing a green sweater and holding a cat, hyperrealistic photography

 

This will generate four images based on the provided prompt in an anime style as seen below:

Output Images
