Midjourney, again

Another day on the Midjourney Server, was fun as always. Today though, I got my first job cancelled. I was attempting to blend an image that I had just made with an image from my PC. After a few minutes waiting for it , I went to my messages and found it was stopped because the image filter had flagged it.

There was a warning that trying to circumvent the community guidelines filter could see me unable to use the service. It linked to the image that I had posted, it was one that Midjourney itself had produced a minute or two earlier.

I won’t post it here, because if one filter has flagged it, another may also flag it and I don’t want that. It was not obscene but I can understand why a filter might think so. It was a variation of this image:

I’ll be more careful in the future, I’d rather not get a reputation for flagged images.

There was also another first for me; I had produced a series of images and variations of the same. I had a couple of jobs running at the same time and so just downloaded the upscaled images as I saw them, while scrolling through the server.

One of the images I downloaded was not an image I had selected for upscaling and it didn’t have my name on it. It was one of my images, but someone else had chosen to upscale it. I didn’t know this was possible, so it’s something to be aware of if you’re using Midjourney.

I’m finding that some images will have a watermark or some text where someone might put their signature. I prefer to not have that so I had a chance to use the healing brush in Affinity Photo 2. It does a great job and works exactly the same way as Photoshop, here’s an example, the text is in the bottom left:

Apart from that, it was just more learning about styles and how images blend. I got quite a few awesome images and I’ll post some here:

Hope you like them, see you in the next one.

Cheers,
